I'm thinking of registering a Domain name for my company(a computer consulting company) and setting up a web site. Should I go with one of the new .US top-level Domain names or stick with the traditional .COM Domain name? I'm just concerned that people might put in .COM anyway if I have a .US name since .COM is so well known.

owensdj,

I see no reason why you should register your domain under the US top level domain. Register it under the COM top level domain.

Your concern that people may type in your domain with the .com extension is valid. I am going through something like this at the moment. I run a website with a country domain (sv) and people many times enter mydomain.com instead of mydomain.com.sv.
