Wanted: Domain Appraisal gigsandtours.org.uk

[chippyb]

Hi guys
Just wondering what you thought to this domain name I have just brought,
Googles keyword search says it gets 90,500 local exacts a month, was wondering what value it has or is it worth building a site for it?

Thanks

Worthless. If you ever started making money on it you'd end up in hot water.

 

[chippyb]

reasons please ?

 

[peter_w]

Because it was registered in bad faith to take advantage of the search traffic for the gigsandtours.com brand. I believe they have even trademarked the term.

 

[chippyb]

honestly didnt even think about that website

 

[peter_w]

Surely you investigated the search volume prior to purchasing?

List it for sale and don't have any of their ads/related ads on it etc?

Haven't a clue. Nowt I expect.

i registered a trademark domain the other day without realising the term was a trademark. So it's pretty much worthless haha, I'm sure alot of others have done the same. Live and learn.

How do you cancel a domain? I've still got my trademarked one, but im not going to do anything with it.

I had the same thing happen the other day

I logged into my nominet account to deleted it but for some reason it wouldnt let me so i contacted heartinternet and basically told them i didnt realise it was a TM name and i dont want nothing to do with it, they got back to me within 15 mins to say they had removed it.

Id rather take a loss of 6.70 than have the complications
