: Change to .travel domain when "traveling" is part of business name? I have a business called Easter Island Traveling. The current URL is www.easterislandtraveling.com. Would it be a good idea

I have a business called Easter Island Traveling. The current URL is easterislandtraveling.com. Would it be a good idea to buy the domain easterisland.travel?
Personally I really like the idea of dramatically shortening the URL this way. I like how the .travel URL looks.

I guess my real question is: are .travel domains taken seriously?

They are still relatively new so there is not much in favour or against, so if you want to get that domain, just go for it.

But since you already have an existing web site, you have to consider what do you want to do with it, if you want to keep both sites and be reached with both URls, it's OK, just remember to set the respective redirections. If, on the other hand, you want to relinquish the original one, don't do it soon, first set redirections from the original one and have a transition process.
