Thanks for all the advice and opinion. The project was initiated years before .com.au were released and I'd had great success with a town online business directory ($70,000pa) and another one on the way ($20,000pa). These were .coms but all other significant geographic .coms were long gone. .Info came along and I saw an opportunity to pre-register and have many online business directory models linked by a consistent model and TLD extension. A major community service group came on board to fundraise through selling advantages in the directories. I was doing well enough to employ people to update the directories and also sell advantages and ads within the directories, and as a result the content and activity made the addresses more valuable. This was the theory. A combination of events (GFC, local competition, wage pressures etc.) around the middle of 2000s resulted in a loss of interest and the closing of this model. I've since tried online community billboards, video (which does generate revenue) and a few other things. The project still remains unique in that I'm unaware of any other project where there are so many Geographic TLDs in one set. I still see many marketing advantages in this concept if I can develop an appropriate, and simple, product that can use it as a vehicle. I've made good money selling other bits and pieces (mostly .coms) but this isn't my primary goal. The strength of this model is as a service linked by reliability of address. Local contribution and adoption, and eventual ownership is key.
