Right now there's a virtual land rush going on in the .ca domain, with many Canadians buying up domains featuring their first and last names with the suffix .ca. According to an article published recently on the Canadian Press website, "Personalized web domain names with the .ca tag have become vanity licence plates of the web. "It doesn't cost much money, considering the disappointment when you might find out in the future: 'oh God, I made it into law school, I wish I had bought (the name) years ago,"' said Tim Richardson, who teaches e-commerce at the University of Toronto and Seneca College. The .ca tag, said Richardson, has become the next logical step for net-savvy users already connected and interconnected on such social sites as Facebook and MySpace." With more and more names being snapped up, there will soon be spirited domain name auctions with many people vying to own the same .ca domain. If I lived in Canada right now, I'd be making money buying domain names for specific names and then reselling them at inflated prices in domain name auctions. It may still be possible in the immediate future to make money buying domain names in Canada if you're quick. So get in on those domain name auctions now!
