Smile New member joining the uk domain market

Hi everyone,
I'm new to the UK domain market, but not new to the domain game. I'm also new to AcornDomains, which seems like the definitive UK domain forum.

I'm mainly buying domains in the financial niche (loans, mortgages, credit cards,
insurance) - generic or exact keyword matches.

I hope I'll find the some nice deals on quality financial UK domains here.

Thanks,
BST

Hi BST, and welcome to acorn. You're right, it is the definitive UK forum.

Sorry to disappoint you but there is not much opportunity left in the UK domain market. I would suggest you target others such as .us etc

I'm lying of course, just trying to keep competition down to a minimum

Welcome to Acorn Domains. You've come to the right place for .co.uk names, that's for sure. Care to share more about the kind of domains you're looking for, likely budget, that sort of thing? I'm sure you'll get plenty of suggestions right off the bat if you can provide just a little more info...

I already received some good offers.
Like I said I'm looking for financial domains (loans, mortgage, debt, credit card, insurance and etc.). I can separate the domains I look for in two categories.

3 keywords exact match domains (2 keywords with less search volume domains also fall into this category). For example - securedhomeloans.co.uk. Budget: XXX .

More generic 2 keyword domains like for example securedloans.co.uk . Budget: X,XXX - the beginning of XX, XXX.

At the moment I'm looking more into the first category as I'm entering the UK market and need some time to feel the water but I'm always ready to jump into a good deal falling into the second category.

Acorndomains forum already feels like a good community.

I'm more of an online entrepreneur/webmaster than domainer.

I'm buying domains that I can develop now or in the future. I'm mainly after financial exact match domains or financial generics.

I'm not buying XX domains (for me they are just a waste of time and energy), I'm mainly after XXX - X, XXX domains and occasionally low XX, XXXX (quality according the price).

Even without good description I got some nice offers

Hi BST and welcome,

You should perhaps give an idea of the financial niches you're interested in, or some of the names you've developed and I'm sure this will furnish you with good financial sector names.

It would also stop all kind of dross clogging your mailbox and it wouldn't waste peoples time (buyer or seller) just a thought.

Hope you do well....
