New to this advice please

Hello

I am new to registering domains. I have just registered my first 4 domains...

ipad3store.co.uk
apple-ipad3.co.uk
propertyservicesagency.co.uk
propertyservicesagency.com

Anyone any idea what I should be aiming to sell these for? The last 2 trend very well globally and in the UK.

Get ready to be sued for your Apple / iPad domains, these are blatant trade mark infringements on one of the worlds largest companies.

Don't register anything else like this or you will be in even more trouble and don't even think about trying to sell them here.

Thank you for your advice as I said I am new to this. My theory was that an an official iPad reseller might be interested in the first two. I don't plan to market the website trading upon Apple's trademarks so I don't believe there is any legal issue.

I would be interested in any opinions you may have on the propertyservicesagency domain names.

Thanks

Admin has given you the heads up on the first two.

On the last two, I would send letters to companies you think might be interested. If you want my opinion, it is that you will find it extremely hard to sell them. That's because in this case there will be little economic benefit to a company in owning the names. It's not a sector where the product or service is primarily sold over the internet.

My advice is to take it nice and slow with new registrations. Buying is simple, selling is hard.

Good luck.

"property services agency" only has 210 local exact searches a month, so I'm not sure why you think it's a big trend in the UK?

And yes, other people are spot on in their comments about your blatant TM infringements. Get rid of them now, or suffer the consequences when Apple's in-house legal team come knocking...

Property services agency as about 5000 per month globally. Is is a useful hoit rate for the construction industry.

Regarding TMs I don't plan to market the website and the intention is that an official Aapple reseller in the UK might be interested as in effect I would have given them an idea. I don't see any legal issue, coming from a legal background in the construction sector for what that is worth. Again thanks for the advice though. I am completely new to this and have spare cash for investments so I am only dabbling at this stage. My initial investment is small so that is why I thought I would get advice from you guys before moving on.

I don't see the legal issue if the website isn't marketing any Apple Trademarks. An official reseller may be interested. Propert services agency has an average of thousands per month globally according to Google Adwords.
