Read the posts, realize that npcomplete has quite a bit more experience with ASCII domains than you, process the data, and stop talking about things you know nothing about.

Look if top keywords got significant amount of Serps, FS would have been a major site developer by now as would Rick. They aren't. They have kept their domains parked because they found that is where their money is coming from. It comes from Direct Navigation, which has fuck all to do with SERPS. Perhaps, I don't regard Rick as the World's greatest guru when it comes to the International scene, but he can sure as hell smell a revenue stream!

And one more thing whilst we are on, the one thing that is sure to happen over the next year is that site will be ranked according to domain extension. That is inevitable. As ICANN releases new extensions by the bucketful, it is not possible for them all to be ranked equally. This means that extensions will be ranked within markets and according to their market weight. This means that dot WS will be pretty light weight globally and will only feature on Google.ws! The Web Builder Outers are going to suffer massively, especially those that have built of Me Too extensions. And trust me Google won't give a shit if they all get flushed down the pan!
