I have a few website domains,.they are all long.  When I do an ad in the local paper I want to shorten it up to LetsClean.info   because unlike online,.. you can't simply click it or copy and paste when you see it. I want people to be able to type it in without so many letters.  My question:  ..Is there anything wrong with using  .info .     Obviously .com and .net were taken. 

 

I lost my primary site over the Winter months and threw this one together over the weekend.

That is an effective way to go especially with bandit signs. Super short and to the point since drivers have a millisecond to see and retain sign info.

I think .info is better than .net .co .org, etc. because it's different enough (4 letters) people will remember it. You should look and see who has the .com since that's everybody's default.

Thanks Bryan. Yea,.I do do some searching,..but not sure what I'd spend to get the .com. I typed it in and it goes to an empty site or something.

Your point about .com being default is spot on. My concern is people tend to be pre-programmed when it some to websites. They instantly think .com. And look right past what;s actually there.

I didn't lose the site per se,.I lost the content,..sort of.  

I think it's still there somewhere,.

Jeff there is a 75 day window after your renewal expires that you can get it back. Go to your Host and see whats going on. If you don't know your Host go to Domain Who Is and find it

Thanks Art,..it didn't expire,..the guy who did my site went out of business and lost all the info he used to build the site. The site was hosted by GoDaddy and I tried some things to update the site and screwed it up, Ha, Ha,..

No big deal,..I needed to change alot of outdated stuff anyhow,..I still have the old domain ,..it points to my new site.

 

raystownroofcleaning.com  is my "lost site.
