You do know that .org's are for nonprofit companies right? Sorry for giving you a hard time its just comes from my extensive web background.

Thanks for pointing this out and making me curious enough to research this. I used to think the same thing you thought until I found some info about it.

Quite interesting...

By the way Gordon, your card is pretty good though I don't care for the redish color.

I also know that I registered it in 1995 when domain name were free. The Internet is a vastly different place now than it was then.

It has nothing to do with non-profit or profit, it has to do with marketing, branding and success. More often than not, if somebody is given a domain name to remember, the natural inclination is to associate it with a dot-com. In other words, if you tell somebody verbally "my site is joeshmoephotography.or​g" they may not have their fullest attention on you and when they get home, they will type in ".com" which is a natural reflex. They may much less frequently type in a dot-net, and many people may not attempt to discover the domain by trying a dot-org.

When, where and how and why YOU got the domain is irrelevant. What is relevant is what your CUSTOMER'S perceptions are, and most people still associate them with non-profit organizations and not with businesses.

Traditional associations (with dot-com) is why .biz, .tv, etc. have failed dismally as top level domains.

You need a dot-com domain.

Edit. This entire article may be of help to you, but if you do not read it all, read point #2
