Hello WA Family, I noticed the .STORE domains are more then the .com, net and others. Are there any benefits to having a .STORE domain over a .com or .net for an online store?<
I would always go for a .com domain name vs. others, as people's perceptions are that when they start typing, they typically assume it is a .com domain name.
However, if you plan to include a blog within your store, nowadays, domains are not so affected by SEO vs. writing quality-rich content with a good choice of keywords, the latter of which would rank you in the search engines.

A .STORE domain instantly tells people your site is for shopping, making it more memorable and relevant to those ready to buy. This can lead to more clicks from serious buyers and a higher chance of conversions. Plus, it’s easier to find available names with .STORE, and it gives your site a more professional look, letting customers know they're in the right place to purchase. Your marketing can then focus on people who are ready to make a purchase.

I would say this is more for vanity purposes.
Similar to what @Dr_Dave was saying, it tells people your site (or that portion of your brand) is for shopping.
My personal feelings are that there is no value with any sort of .store domain and that it is a cash grab from the domain companies.
Hi Jay one more question. I wasn’t able to purchase the .com domain for my online clothing brand but I was able to get the .net.
The .store is available for my brand. Would you recommend sticking with the .net or make the investment in the .store ?
Thank you.
