Secondary Domain Name Question & Prices?

[Kimberly]

I would like to please get some input on two questions I have:

1. I have a .com and am thinking of getting some similar .coms and/or .nets to park and point to my main .com index page.

Example:
If I had http://www.My-Site-About-Dogs.com then I would get http://www.My-Site-About-Dog.net, http://www.My-Site-Dogs.com, http://www.Dogs-Day-Greeting-Cards.com and http://www.Stories-About-Dogs.com

What do you feel are the benefits and drawbacks of having extra domain names pointing to the main page main index page?

2. What is the best prices and reliable place to get domain names?

Thanks for your time and help
Kim

Bah, I'm going to miss the deadline. I need to buy a new domain for a project i have too...

It is waste of money to buy variations of a long and hard to remember domain. Why not buy mydogs.info, aboutdogs.info..
or .net, org whatever.
Even if you insist ion .com you can find better names imo.
