Is it a good idea?


Is it a good idea, when registering a domain, to register both the .com and the .net? What about the .org?

Sure. At the price to register now days why not. When it was $70 it wasn't always posible for everyone. Take all of the names to cover your bases.

Yeah I think so to. It's always good to block impersonators from impersonating you.

The ultimate domain would be www.Toolz.Toolz

I just do the .com.

Unless I really think it has potential; then I include the .net.

Beyond that takes too much thought. And my head hurts.
