No, I have registered typos with 1000 w/ext before, they received nil traffic, therefore generated nil revenue, as they were typos (Having no keyword value) they were worthless.
Unless there isn't any value in the keyword(s) then based on overture score alone the domain isn't worth anything (Unless it gets traffic)

It can be...
A score of 141 for a name WITHOUT the extension would usually mean the name is worthless. A score of 141 for a domain WITH the extension is most often a good sign that the domain has traffic. This is not 100% of course, and I have found a fair amount that end up having no traffic.
If you find an unregistered name with a decent OVT score with the extension, do a cursory check from other sources like Google etc and register the damn thing, it's only a few bucks. Always remember though, if it sounds too good to be true..then it probably is.
If you are using the OVT tool to look at purchasing names in the aftermarket, it is a good starting point, but is far from the end all answer.

PS. The above "quick view" is my opinion of the OVT tool, and any disagreement with others view of it was purely intentional.

I think you did well , i bought 3 names with low OV with Extension 9,11, & 5
type in's last month were 31,46 & 82 Average of 30% click rate , one of those was a football club without the FC. i made $6 from them last month.
a small amount i know but in a few months they will be paid for..
Good Luck!..

stender said:aqls, are you a detective or psychic? Yes it was leytonorient.co.uk ov was 141. I regged it and it had about 25 hits within a few hours.
Problem is parking on sedo I can't have any relevant ads so won't get any clicks. And I don't think I can do a decent affiliate site as I don't think you can get an orient credit card or orient affiliates. Probably only any good as a fans page? (My second team after west ham)
Could always see if Barry Hearn is interested.
west ham united football club!

Top Man! that's my team, Did I miss that dropping?
I reckon the company that looks after the football websites now must have got a rollocking for letting it drop? There's still loads of in links from other teams saying it's the official club site? it's lost it's pr of 4 though now it's parked.
