Apraisal: reposessed.co.uk - newbie to this domain business

Hi all.

Hope all well. Despite having been in the Internet business since 1995 and selling a couple of high-value domains, I'm pretty new to the idea of building up a site to make it worth more.

My company has its own NIC tag, and snagged reposessed.co.uk a couple of days ago - please take a look at what I've done with the domain and then tell me what's right, wrong or downright illegal about it.

http://www.reposessed.co.uk

Interesting, this is a mis-spelling of repossessed, but on a Google search, it's pretty-much a 50-50 split between correct spelling and incorrect spelling - it seems to be the worst spelt word in the world

I'm interested in learning, so if there are any decent guides out there that people might point me to, so much the better.

Thanks guys,
Dave

You make a valid point, and one I'd considered myself.

It does make me wonder how long it will be before Google corrects our spelling of the word 'colour' to the Americanised 'color'. All of your base are belong to us...

Cheers
