Which Domain Name will you use?
I am in a kind of dilemma. I have three likely domain names for a pet classifieds website. The problem is that I have to set up one of them as a pet classifieds site. Since I do not have the .com for the most likely term searched, which of the following domains will you use if you were me and why?
Please note that the industry leader on pet classifieds in google is currently a dot US!
So here are my options:
Candidate 1.) PetClassified (Dot) net
Candidate 2.) PetClassifeds (Dot) org
Candidate 3.) PetClassifiedAds (Dot) com
The most searched term is “Pet Classifieds”
I already have the best possible classifieds software installed at the back end of one of them since a year ago but never activated it. I will switch if the vote is overwhelmingly against my original pick.
Thanks for your time and opinions.

I’d go for PetClassifieds.org
Pet classified just doesn’t sound right to me, .Org seems to be picking up steam and if you’re going for pet classifieds as a search term it seems the obvious choice.
Good luck with the development.
Hi,
I would go with PetClassifiedAds .com.
It’s not much longer than the other two.
PetClassified .net is singular so shouldn’t even be considered…unless you will have only one classified ad.
PetClassifieds .org would be fine…if you were running a non-profit site.
Would you share what is “the best possible classifieds software “?
I vote for PetClassifeds (Dot) org
Since you’re not going to have the .com anyway might as well get the search phrase as close as possible.
By the way, can you share the name of the classifieds software you’re using?
Definitely – PetClassifieds.org
Good Luck with that project!
Patrick not now. Hit me later
Candidate 3.) PetClassifiedAds (Dot) com
dot com rules!!!
If it is FOR PROFIT I vote PetClassifiedAds.com.
If it is NOT FOR PROFIT I vote PetClassifieds.org.
Guys thanks.
Please keep the votes coming. It currently stands at .org 4 votes .com 2 Votes (Dnkitchen voted for both in a way so I gave both the com and org a vote each)
Hard choice, but I would with the com in this situation, even though the .org has the perfect keyword combination. The singular net is odd, so not worth it for this project.
PetClassifieds.org
I agree, PetClassifieds.org demolishes the other two domains. It matches your desired keywords exactly and it gets nearly 5 times more searches per month than the other two domains.
1 Vote for PetClassifieds.org
PetClassifiedAds.com That is pretty strong.
PetClassifieds.org
The votes tallied at
.Net = Honorable mention– No votes
