Hi there,

It's a funny old name to be honest, I can't see many people searching for it? Are you intending to develop the name with a site and have a specific use/purpose with it?

Not sure what to do with it to be honest.

Just thought it might be worth slightly more than the reg fee due to the legal connotations. Just checked and im surprised it gets 33k exact global searches a month.

Perhaps some sort of insurance/accident site might be an idea.

As with any domain, its value lies in how you would develop a site around it, how it could be used in a commercial context. Not all dictionary word domains have obvious uses, I would guess with this one people searching for the term are looking for a definition.

No, you didn't waste time or money. Keep hold of it (might even be for 5 years+) and you'll see a good return for very little outlay. Meaningful dictionary words, generics and the rest always have long term value. Nice reg.

Send me the list... I'll reg the long term ones for you... 90 names at £3 per year per name? If they're any good where's the risk?

At circa £3 per year a reasonable one word domain (apart from enthusiasticalistically.co.uk etc) that is in general use is not a risky outlay (only IMHO of course).

The only risk is that you don't hold the line long enough to make a profit. Domains have value if they mean something to enough people numbers wise...
