rofl!!

Seriously, though. Does anyone have some knowledge about how the extension of a domain – particularly a geographic extension – affects SERPS?

[Anonymous]

Fergie whatever the case in the long run
I’m not sure search engines would be dumb enough to include
foreign language countries in their top page results …
this defeats the objective of relevant results …
kinda of like getting Japanese results for american searches.

:rolleyes:

They are not foreign language websites though are they as most
of the content is in english.They may well differenciate between
languages (its done already) but not domain origination.

Its not so apparant in gambling as the main keywords are dominated by us websites but if you look further afield in
particular consumer shopping websites as diverse as au,be,it
fr,co.uk etc feature well on the first pages and not because they
are overly optimised either.

to answer your question fergie i have spoken to a few so called seo experts and have been told as long as top level domains
are used they enjoy the same serps as .coms.

ps prof if you enjoy a challenge i also own online-casino.sk
slovakia try that language:bigsmile:

Well I got a nice fat cheque in the mail for a domain name. Nothing like 175,000, but 4 figures, which is always nice to have.

Congrats!

BTW, the strike price is $140,000 –not $175,000.

The lawyer drafting the agreement had a baby, so the agreement draft has been delayed a few days, but it is expected soon, probably early this week.

If you move FAST you can still buy it for $175,000. When I say FAST I mean like overnight me a check. Otherwise, consider it sold.

I see alot of folks are trying to cash in with the CC TLDs.

I’m just curious, Knowing the value of this domain name and how much easier it would be to rank in the search engines. Why dont you just make it #1 for online casino and make a couple million off of that?

[Anonymous]

Antoine that would be the wisest thing to do … as a real estate

investor I would liken this to selling an empty apartment

building with one that’s already fully rented … the selling

price differential would be huge.

That’s a very good question.

Part of the reason is I don’t want to be an affiliate in this business. Another part is I don’t have a clear idea of what kind of kind of site to build; also, I don’t have the infrastructure to publicize, build, support, link, optimize, audit, and maintain it.

The online casino business is very competitive and this domain needs a higher level of committment and expertise than I can offer.

The biggest reason is that I am a domain owner by trade, and this money will help me enormously with other acquisitions. I can leverage the sum into many millions.

I feel I am leaving money on the table with this particular trade. Sometimes it’s OK to do that as part of a larger strategy.

i just did a search on google for ROULETTE.

roulette.com is nowhere to be seen on the first 5 pages anyway.

roulette.sh (st helena) is number 3 on the first page.

paroli.de is on page 2 go figure

roulette.com has lost its crown i hope the owner didnt pay
way over the odds for it.:bigsmile:

[Anonymous]

AND the roulette.sh has broken a few google “rules”

– spamming the keyword ‘roulette’ in the meta tags
– not putting the

Man, this serp thing is a real trip. -aint that the truth.

This all goes to prove that buying any keyword domain from
the serp point of view is a complete waste of time.Depending
how you optimise you may get an advantage by repeating
the url over and over buts thats about it.

for me and some others i suppose there is some intrinsic value and when i am confronted with a page of url’s i would be more
likely to click on watches.fr than spammy-spam-watches-best.com

There is one exception though com or net cc’s.

ie com.fr net.fr.the beuty of these domains is adding sub domains
onto them.

you can have casino.com.fr,blackjack.com.fr etc etc.its like having
your own country. I suppose experts may argue against it but
from my experience when i have a NEW site spidered by google or yahoo they pick out a few pages to list but all sub domains
are always listed.

well thats me done on domains expect to say that i beat the
hughes corporation to the draw for directv.be and they want it back haha.(they try and register evey cc domain in existance.)

It doesn’t prove that at all. It just proves that it is possible to stupidly ruin any domain and/or get it penalized.

yep cant argue with that classics.but for what the domain cost
them i would imagine that they have made an excellent return
on their investment.with some people its all about the money
very sad:bigsmile:
