Domain Myth #2: The .COM is All Anyone Cares About! Fact: Wow, this could not be further from the truth! Especially today, after what the industry is heading towards.

HOWEVER, with the growing importance of Keyword Phrase Relevancy in the Search Engines ( ie: Google), three-word and four-word Domain Names are still wide open! You just need to know how to find them.

Many try, but most fail.

Today, more than 80 Million ".COM" Domains names have been registered.
