    The only way i can see them not selling them anymore is if they have so many people register them and drop them after one year. I do not think they make much off each one so it is not worth it if alot of people only pay for a year and drop them.

    I think the info domain is great and can be
    Used productively as a resource in conjunction
    With affiliate site.

    If they close to sell .info domain then what about other .info domains that they sold already.

    Will they be able to recharge the account or not?

    As well, I don't see any reason over there to stop selling this extension

    godaddy may not end selling .ino domains because it's package selling deal.
    not every product makes you money like walmart sells some products in loss only to attract people to buy more products.

    Get this!
    I was eating a pasty today with my GF sat on a bench inside whilst it was raining, and i looked on the waterfields pasty bag and it said wait for it.....waterfields.info!

    Thats right, there domain name is www.waterfields.info not .com? So this proves that the .INFO is sometimes the better choice for not only small time firms but also the national pasty makers ;)
    You do get redirected to .co.uk however considering they still print .info on the pasty bag proves that they are used and are useful.

    Will.

    I nearly buy a .info domain on last two days.
    But, my final decision is .com

    Support Staff Response
    Dear Terry Robertson,

    Thank you for contacting Online Support.

    At this time we do not have plans to stop registering .INFO domains as suggested. Go Daddy supports domain name registrations and renewals for several of the most sought after domain extensions. Below is a link to an up-to-date list of those extensions, along with the domain extensions that we offer transfers for:

    GoDaddy Domain Extension List


    We also offer domain registrations for a variety of country code domain extensions. Below is a link to that list:

    Country Code Extension List

    The domain extensions in this second list are not available for transfer to GoDaddy. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

    Please let us know if we can assist you in any other way.

    Regards,

    Gary P.
