Although .com continues to dominate the domain landscape, .org has carved out itself a nice little niche. .Org has been able to establish this niche because it has a significantly better/cleaner image than .com due to its non-profit origins. These non-profit origins have translated into a great deal of TV time for this extension. I don't know how many times that I have been watching TV and saw a commercial or program saying something.org. It has actually gotten to the point where I don't know whether .org or .com gets more TV time these days.
What does that mean for domainers? It means that domainers have a viable substitute for .com in certain areas. These areas do not have to be completely void of making a profit, but some industries simply DO NOT work well .org at all. Sex domains, hostings, & gambling usually dont work well with .org's
