well worth while investment.But not all names are worth that much.He was just lucky and well done to him as well.

You'll never be able to register a domain today and only maintain it for $20 a year and sell it for that much.

all dictionary words are gone, all 1-2-3 and most 4 letter LLLL.com domains are gone. Maybe try to get some easy to remember 5 letter.com name and hope theere is a need for them down the road.

What it's funny is how the big companies choose odd names: Google-Yahoo-Bebo-Veoh-Frappr-YouTube-Flckr-Vimeo-Bix-Digg-Furl... and so on!

That also has to do with finding a unique name. If your site has a unique name, then a SE search for your site will take the searcher there, instead of somewhere else.

To be honest with you? I thought it was supposed to be that way! I spent on a Nevada Corp, 1-800, P.O.Box, Copyrights, and then I found out that a Forum is mostly a hobby :mad:

You can get thenerdshack.com from me for a low price of just $500k! LOL j/k

Wow, that's crazy price for just a domain name. The sad thing is that this will ecourage more domain sqatting :(
