.CO Domain Names Landrush: Boom or Bust?

July 9, 2010 by publisher · Leave a Comment 

The new .CO domain name extension is being hyped as a must-have for all business websites. But is it worth the inflated price? It’s the latest domain name extension to be opened to the public worldwide. Domain name registrars have been hyping the “.CO Landrush” and have even extended this “pre-registration” period an additional three days, to July 16. In the days of the 1849 California Gold Rush, more miners went bust than boom when seeking that elusive gem stone. Will .CO turn out to be another case of Fool’s Gold? The fee to reserve a .co name during the Landrush ranges from about $230 to $300 for the first year. I wonder what all the fuss is about.
