    I have a great .org domain that I want to develop into a commercial website with Adsense, membership fees etc… It seems most of the .orgs I visit are non-profit websites. Before I start building out this site, I want to make sure .orgs can be used for a blatantly commercial website.

    There are no restrictions on .ORG domains. You can use them as you wish. :)

    In spite of the historic background as a domain for non-profit organizations there are no restrictions. Anybody can register .org domains.

    .org domains are only for non-profit organization and porn sites, so unless you're one of the two...
