They aren't really for anything, the .net I've had for a while and the .eu I've just bought, I thought it would be good to have as we do have people from all over the world and of cause that includes the EU, if I could get the .com I would have that as well also it doesn't do any harm having more than 1 url when it comes to search engine rankings.

scale-models.com says it is being re-designed.

the copywrite on it says IQ management something.

what the hell does that have to do with scale-models?

i think some of these big firms buy a loads of domain names they know will be popular so when someone wants it they can charge stupid amounts for them!

Scale models. com just doesn't sound right.

How about dot org?

John,

Google are removing vertically intregrated domains names in the next update- just to let you know as its obviously going to have quite an inpact on certain types of SEO.

What are vertically integrated domains meant to be? Google and other search engines don't usually advertise what they intend to do when it come to ranking pages
