Why you might not choose .FISHING

  • Very niche: Only suitable for fishing and outdoor content.
  • Limited brand flexibility: Hard to repurpose if the site expands beyond fishing.
  • Less recognition: Many users still default to .COM or country code domains.
  • Potential higher pricing: Specialty hobby domains can cost more.

For broader branding and flexibility, Website.com offers mainstream extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG instead of .FISHING.
