Hi, Please don't take this wrong, but why didn't you check to see if your proposed name was available in .com prior to changing it?
The .com is just ingrained in peoples mind as the main domain extension for the company's main site. In IE Browser you can just type the name a then press ctrl-enter and it will fill in the http:// and .com around it for you. Now the other extensions are fine, it is just going to take more effort/advertising on your part to get people come to the .ca Hey this is just my opinion ;-) Ben Johansen - http://www.pcforge.com Authorized Witango Reseller http://www.pcforge.com/WitangoGoodies.htm Latest downloads & List Archives @ http://www.witango.ws -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner-witango-talk@;witango.com] On Behalf Of Steve Smith Sent: Thursday, November 07, 2002 6:24 AM To: Multiple recipients of list witango-talk Subject: Witango-Talk: OT - Business Name Change I have recently changed the name of my business (the old name had some problems associated with it) and I'm finally getting around to changing my subscriptions. Nothing else has changed, just the name of the company and the domain name. Unfortunately the oakbridge.com domain was not available so I took the .ca. I am interested in hearing from the non-Canadians (off the list please) with regards to their impression of seeing a company with something other than a .com domain. I'm looking for both negative and positive feedback.
