Top GTLDs 2023 – duud.com

Top = my favourite. GTLD = generic top level domain. Best for digital product and services and/or if you sell to multiple countries.

No, no, you’re right. You’re smarter than Paul Graham, Jeff Bezos, Elon and Zuck. Low renewal fees, a namesake stock market bubble and trillions of dollars of value created 😉
Wikipedia lifts .org above every other alt TLD. Usage is situational but there are plenty of businesses where it makes sense, see Craigslist and AdBlock Plus. I also have a soft spot for it because I flipped superfungames.org for a cool $500 when I was a young buck
.co’s biggest strength is also its biggest weakness; its similarity to .com. You will leak more traffic and emails but if users actually make it to your site then it might seem more familiar
.io has existential issues and renewals are a ripoff but tech bros love it
.net seems dated but renewals are reasonable and it is still familiar to a lot of users. Your average small business is probably better served with a .net than a .co (less leakage and renewals cost half as much)
.ai renewals are obscene and I doubt it has staying power
Cheap registrations led .xyz to being abused by spammers and scammers
I’m joking about .dog but honestly if you’re not using .com you may as well
I have seen .lol and .wtf do well on Hacker News
