Domains that Aren’t Good for Root Orange and Why

BostonDermatologist.com

  • Domains with geographic modifiers are not good fits because we can only lease them in a single metro area

Orthodontist.net, AutoCare.org, and YogaStudio.cn

  • Root Orange is limited to .com’s among generic TLDs for now, until we gain traction there.  We will add cc TLDs once we expand internationally.

AntivirusSoftware.com or Boardgames.com

  • Products that are likely to be offered online via download or an ecommerce portal are better used in ecommerce applications instead of Root Orange’s localized leasing

OnlineBooks.com and eTaxConsulting.com

  • Any domain that implies a service is offered primarily online means it is not useful to a local business

FreeLegalAdvice.com

  • Local businesses don’t want to pay to market their free services

BestNewHomes.com, AnyToilerRepair.com, and BuyUsedCars.com

  • Domains with adjective or verb modifiers because usually have relatively low organic search volumes and are therefore less likely to deliver a base ROI for our customers
