It no longer matters (as much).

As a guy who has opened several companies over the years I can tell you that clients won't give a shit what domain extension you use. As long as the name is good they'll fall in love with it.

Would you rather a client go to:

>datingsitebyjim.com

or

>dating.ca

for example?

I wholeheartedly believe its the latter.

Its only the SEO nerds and dweebs who obsess over domain names. Go whatever you feel fits your brand. If you found a good domain any TLD will do even country level ones. It will be harder to optimize for SEO but if it grows bigger and bigger it won't matter anymore as you'll have Google account managers listing your domain as "all countries" rather than "Serbia" for example.

Get my drift?

Anyone who disagrees please do let me know your opinion as I'm interested in this as well.

I'm using .cn for my website for affiliate related stuff. At first I thought only Chinese based users would come but I get 100x more US visits then I do China.

So it really depends on your sites content and your brand. I do a lot of Amazon affiliate stuff and also monetize my site through AdSense because it's in English.

The site also pops up #1 on Google search on .ca, .com and .co.uk - in theory it should only show up on Google.cn but it does on the Western sphere ones, so who am I to argue?
