Check out what this firm did with its .Co domain name

It’s not .com.

Every once in a while I see a .co domain name around town. One of my favorites is mow.co, which is used by a local lawn mowing service.

I was flipping through the Angie’s List magazine last night and saw an ad for a local window washing firm. Something regarding the domain name looked funny:

sparklingclean

I’ve never seen that ahead of. They use a .co domain name, and to make it clear to readers that it’s .co and not .com, they put an / through an “m” next to it.

Also on the wire

Other reporting from the domain desk.
