It's fashionable. The message an .io domain sends nowadays is that you're some cool little web app that does something awesome with lots and lots of data.

It's also short. To some, the fact it's only 2 characters rather than 3 matters.

.co domains aren't really popular..

.io really sounds like an app and data site for some reason..

Maybe because many think it means input/output.

may be, but I haven't seen a lot of .io websites outside the crypto community Cheesy

Me neither. Guess it's more of a geek thing.

Yeah, might want to elaborate on what you mean with JS. I would assume JavaScript, but... pretty much all websites use it.

Not sure what JS is, but .io has been taken over by the start up crowd, therefore short .com domains ending in "io" have been selling quite well to start ups for instance.

I'm a domain investor, and have zuuio.com in my portfolio as an example.

Would love to know what JS means?
