Hi

Im looking for a .co.uk premium generic domain name, one or 2 words. It needs to get quite a lot of direct type-in traffic. Will pay up to £12,500. It can be any niche, but would prefer a name that can easily be developed in to a decent website, not a domain name that you would struggle to think of a decent kind of website to build.

Please pm only your domains, with amount of traffic received.

Thanks
 
I would say anything over 1000 uniques a month would be very good.

Interestingly, out of the circa half million uk domains listed at Sedo, only 4 generic UK names get more than 1k visits per month, the rest are all related to brands, sites or services. Just saying FYI.

Thats interesting to know.

When I said generic, I meant to include services and exact match domains also. For example "HomesforSale.co.uk", which is an exact match domain.

Thanks
 
The Sedo figure will include service/exact match domains.

How many type-ins are you getting to HomesforSale.co.uk and Lets.co.uk?
 
1,000 visits a month is a massive number of typeins for a .co.uk generic - will be very interesting to see what you get offered...
 
I've only got a few that consistently exceed that as a pure generic wrt type ins - Trains.co.uk being the biggest of them.

Lets.com does pretty well too for type ins, didn't realise you had the UK.

What kind of price range would you be looking to sell trains.co.uk, if you where to sell it?

I was thinking the same - most of mine don't get that much, apart from Map/Maps.co.uk of course but they're not for sale.

Agreed, I have a few with over that but not that many.

It should be pointed out that there is a fair difference in different types of traffic and type in traffic.

I consider the latter purely when people type the domain into the address bar style 'direct' traffic.

The old OV tool was quite good at spotting those as the search with ext worked :)

There is a historic list on here of those with decent OV, and pruning out the brands leaves very few proper generics and even less that could be for sale.
 
Agree 1000 type-ins is high...

Nottingham.co.uk only got 760 last month, while Coventry.co.uk exceeds 1000, due to obvious reasons!
 
Hi All,

I wasnt originally aware that 1000 was a very high number of type-ins, I am therefore interested in domains which have much lower type-ins, say anything over 300 or 400 each month.

Thanks
 
One of my names TIE,com gets 3000+ direct typeins per month, but its not a .co.uk which you are looking for and neither does it fit in with the budget you mentioned in your post.

One of my LLL.co.uk name gets 4000+ typeins / month
