GoDaddy is saying .Co is the new .Com...

Crap, double post.

Not to burst anyone's bubble, but italianbulls already said that he DIDNT go to Full Sail. Someone just threw up the name for some reason and people ran with it. I actually know a lot of people from that school or who went there and yes, I think it's crap, but he didn't go there.

Ha ha... You missed it... He said: (around post #84?)

...and have learned so much more in Full Sail (yes I do attend Full Sail), then I could have on my own.

As far as .co the only reason someone should buy them is for when people forget to put the M on the .com. Go buy up all those fortune 500 company domains now and get some free traffic!

That's what I was thinking... I wonder if there are any left though. -I'm less worried about cybersquatting laws than Dullspace is. They have the lawyers though, so you better be ready for a fight.

I typed google.co just this morning by accident...

This is as though someone ran a commercial claiming 2+2=4 and you made a thread asking "who else thinks 2+2=5?" Then you linked the commercial as proof that 2+2=5.

The fact is, the commercial never claimed 2+2=5. You misunderstood. Even if it did claim 2+2=5, you would have to be an idiot to believe that. There isn't controversy in this thread. There isn't "buzz" in the "blogosphere." There is just a lot of people who are correct, and you, who is wrong. Own up to it.

Even if the commercial didnt say, flat in your face, this was better, think about the actual commercial. They built up this new GoDaddy person, saying it was the hottest, newest thing (which they have not done for many TLD's). They got a whole new GoDaddy girl, Joan Rivers(bad mistake imo). My initial thread post was a little off base, and I recognize that, but this message can still be somewhat implied. I dont read books on Internet Marketing, I read books on Leadership and Behavioral Science. We are linked to blogs/videos, and have live meetings over the web, sometimes with very successful Marketers.

And yes, buzz is very much part of marketing, that cannot be denied.

GoDaddy has no financial incentive to sell you more domains. The reason for that commercial was because they have your best interests in mind.

GoDaddy is now a not for profit organization

If u knew anything about marketing, it's the company who decides what to brand themselves as.

I'm no expert, but I am majoring in Internet Marketing.

You all should learn to adapt. This is my advice, do what you want with it.

Already took English and got an A. Sorry if I dont have proper grammer on a forum.

Many of you should be aware how fast stuff spreads on the net.

Eventually, we may see a shift, I'm glad to of posted on here, because even though I have had no real feedback, it has helped me sort out my thoughts.

I rofl'd

It's like, you think, you know, what, you're talking, about, but, you go, to fullsail.

Ah yes. I see it now, wow hahahaha I was going by what he said here:

http://www.wickedfire.com/shooting-shit/115765-godaddy-saying-co-new-com-2.html#post1167052

Obviously not the brightest tool in the shed! Split personalities maybe? I'm not sure if HE even knows what he's talking about anymore but here's a word of advice (if he decides to take which is probably a no go):

I've been dabbing in and out of IM since around '03 with NO luck at all. Learned a shit ton about SEO, but when you're working full time and doing music full time it's hard to really put any time into it. An electrician by trade, I was laid off about a year and a half ago and said fuck it, I'm never going to work for anybody else again. Invested some money saved, made some contacts, made some products and whola, that's what I do. You do NOT need a degree in IM to make money online but maybe you don't want to work for yourself. Maybe you want to do IM for a company but who knows.

Full Sail = WASTE OF MONEY!

You are basically paying for nice tile, and class rooms.

Anyways, it's time to do some .co research and see what I can buy!

 

[NPressPlatinum]

Yes, but I'm sure there's a way to buy up as many as you can and then perhaps sell them to the company for a much much higher price.

I mean, talk about an instant MFA site put up with some easy misspelled income.

But like anything, you know there's probably someone that's already been on this, so it makes you even wonder if it's worth checkin.
