    I saw this domain that was not registered. I thought it might be worth alot some day. So I want you guys to tell me if it was worth it or not and why. :)

    Domain: myblogger.co

    Its not bad I would say, but there are some other keywords you could have chosen for example would be blogger.co generalblogger.co theblogger.co assuming they arent taken.

    1) Blogger.co is taken.
    2) If it was not taken and I did buy it I would be sued by blogger.com for sure. :P

    myblogger just seem easier to get without getting sued since I already noticed the other myblogger domains .com, .net, etc was taken already. They all linked to other blogs so im in the clear.

    lol why would they sue you, you could have just kept it, and im sure they would have bought it from you for a good amount. and yea myblogger is pretty good, you might get some offers once .co gets popular... may take ahwile though.

    Sounds like it was a good investment. Buying a domain and hoping for a profit later on down the road is like digging for oil. You never know what you will get.

    Sounds like a good domain to me - hold it, or get it appraise and see how much its worth.

    It'd be more better if you got a .com of a causal domain. .com's are the way of the future is what I say.

    I disagree with the above statement, .com has been around the longest therefore isn't exactly the way of the future. However it is the most common and most used out of all domain extensions but doesn't mean that it will be the only one in use as people are always looking for new investments :)

    Yes, .com is just more common, but its not any different or better than the others ones such as .org or .net. But they all have more value than a .co, not sure if thats even a TLD.

    .co is a domain name extension, it's a ccTLD, Namecheap has come nice information about it: http://www.namecheap.com/domains/extensions-tlds/cctld/co.aspx

    You're not understanding what im trying to say here, look at my first post:
    I used CC short for CountryCode.

    Anyways we have gone way off topic lol. Back on topic.(y)

    Sorry, My eyes are tired, and I have a headache despite having my usual 11+ hours sleep last night. Anyway myblogger.co sounds cool and you could make a host out of that. If you got blogger.co if it was available you could sell it to blogger for lots of money, lol
