A couple of Q's from a newbie

[pendragon]

My apologies if similar threads have been posted in the past but I have a couple of questions....

1. In your opinions, is there a specific category of domain name that seems to sell better than others, ie sport or music etc. Its seems to me that good casino and blogging variants do well??

2. This has surely been asked before, but where is the cheapest place to register a dom name? The best ive found so far is 1and1.

1) property domains seem to be in a boom at the moment,
casino domains give you a nice high PPC rate
and of course, 3 letter domains will always sell well

2) i would suggest Nominet are the cheapest?
£5 +vat if your a tag holder
123-reg and UKreg are pretty reasonable price alternatives
