Why is the idea of .tel so great?
Beside other things, .tel has one big advantage:
.tel focuses on enabling prospects calling businesses directly without making a detour.
This is very valuable, because the best consultation for people who can't find their way through the overload of information is to talk to services directly over the phone.
.tel is the accelerator for communication.
What's the most challenging problem?
.tel is completely unknown and it would costs millions and millions to change the habits of (mobile) internet users.
Until today there is no central place to go to find .tel domains.
In addition .tel has to fight against thousands of other domain endings and is without chance against them with the current specification.
What could solve all problems for .tel?
Telnic / Telnames refuses to change the structure of .tel domains because the focus should stay on phone numbers as it was conceptualized.
This could work in the long run if .tel will ever be discovered by the masses.
But something needs to be done to make .tel famous.
There is a way for this:
Although text isn't allowed on the front page of a .tel domain (aside from the inflexible keyword section), Telnic should allow the proper and nice administration of content (especially text) on sub-domains (including bold, italic or long text and titles).
If this gets combined with nicely inserted pictures, .tel wouldn't have the current disadvantage of not being found on Google anymore.
Because on search engines only content is king!
