Some New Domain Registrations

In the past couple of months, I’ve registered a few “new” domains. Some were expirations and a few were fresh registrations.

  1. i like frengles since it is generic.

    heatingoildelivery – surprised that was available.

    fauxcolates – interesting name…now you need to create a product for the name.

    i don’t like the credit report names with the mix of words and numerals.

    deep sea fishing tour – only 2k unique results but hey it’s only $8. I spent more on lunch today.

    i’ve reg’d much worse…..

  2. Some of my recent hand registrations in .com are:

    CobolConsulting
    ShoeSpecials
    EntranceEssay
    PlacementExam
    SATCoaching
    BucurestiRomania
    InterestFinance

    They were all drops.

    I like most of the ones on your list except for the two credit ones where three is spelled out but one is the number. I don’t think they’d get type-ins like that.

  3. Here are some of my recent ones:

    TurkeyDogs.com
    BlinkFeed.com
    CharacterDomains.com
    GuyFlicks.com
    BeverlyHillsPreschools.com
    AlternativeBlogs.com
    GovernmentCharts.com
    ThemeTracker.com
    UplandAttorneys.com

    And here are other goodies had by GoDroppers:
    godrops.com/grabs/

  4. Elliot,

    What is your plan with drinkkoozie & drinkkoozies? I think the names are good as there is a young (college age) population that are obsessed with these things. However, is the margin high enough on this type of product to put together an e-commerce site?

    Since people are throwing out hand registrations; how about:

    widgetsforblogs.com
    popularcolleges.com
    pbgflorida.com (pbg is short for palm beach gardens, which is commonly referred to as PBG)

    I am thinking about doing a mini-site with one of these names, but have not decided if they are worthy yet.

  5. @Elliot
    TripleCreditWatch.com —- Good Job

    Hey I did not know you were a real pet lover. I used to have a doberman before I went to the desert for 2 years. That rascal was a handsome looking thing!

    I posted on my latest regs on my blog about two days ago

  6. I love it!

    I love that you hand register new domains.
    I love doing it myself, it gives me a rush. (over 4,000 rushes to date)
    I love when people say their are no good domains left to hand register.
    (Hey, they’ve been saying this for at least seven years.)
    I love this business.

    About your names.

    I won’t comment whether good or bad, but these don’t pass the radio test.

    ThreeIn1CreditScore.com
    ThreeIn1CreditReport.com

    There are just too many combinations out there and they are registered.
    (threeand1, threeandone, 3and1, 3andone)

    Examples of some of my recent hand registrations include
    DeliDept.com
    DeliDepartment.com
    FourStarRestaurants.com (but only one other variation)

    Some in the past couple of years that have received nice offers include
    ThreadingSalon.com
    TheFirstFamily.com
    FlatironDistrict.com

    Disclaimer:
    This is not an appraisal thread.
    If anyone thinks they suck, that’s Ok.
    You don’t have to live with them. 🙂

    Again, thanks for sharing.

  7. I like these:

    CigarEnthusiasts.com
    HeatingOilDelivery.com
    DeepSeaFishingTour.com
    TripleCreditWatch.com

    TripleCreditWatch.com is interesting.

    Hopping on the ‘these are my new regs’ bus –
    NonGasVehicle(s).com
    NonGasolineVehicle(s).com

    One can ‘jones’ without a new reg or two, now and then!!

  8. Cool!

    I just hand regged EnglishDoodle.com. It is a cross between and English Retriever and a Poodle. Pretty cool dog and not that bad of a hand reg.

  9. I recently bought these available names:

    CCDImageSensor.com (used in digital cameras)
    PorroPrism.com (part in Binoculars)
    ExpressAffection.com (Speed Dating site?)
    FlushedDownTheToilet.com
    HolidayDoorbuster.com
    HardcoreGamblers.com

    I like ’em. We’ll see what happens, but it helps to run a website that helps people find fresh, available names. 🙂

  10. I’m glad you guys are posting about hand reg’s. We all can’t be Domain gods like Rick Schwarts or Frank Schilling so hand reg’ing is a domaining staple for those who started after 2002.

    Here are some of my fresh hand reg’s:

    BowieCondos.com (Bowie is a city)
    OnlineCriminalJusticeCourse.com ($8 cpc on google)
    BudgetingSpreadsheets.com
    LanguageOptions.com
    ForexDataFeed.com

    I taught my college student cousin some tricks of the trade this past week and he hand reg’ed (his very first domain!):

    PlannerCalendars.com

    This is the greatest business ever and I regret not being openminded to seeing the opportunity when I myself was a college student in the mid to late 90s!

  11. The majority of my domains are hand registered, below are some of the ones that I’ve got in the past few weeks. (You can see the rest on my website.)

    AccessBayArea.com

    AccessBeverlyHills.com

    AccessHonolulu.com

    BeverlyHillsLuxuryProperties.com

    ***EDITED BY ELLIOT***
    Spam deleted – sorry.

  12. I think these are some nice registrations Elliot – I think they are so many great domains out there still in .com .net and .org available to register.

    ***EDITED BY ELLIOT***
    Spam deleted – sorry.

  13. My latest reggs were:

    Artikuj.com (Albanian for “articles”)
    JewsReligion.com
    InvestorsInvestment.com
    Gezuar.com (Albanian for “cheers”)
    GodOfSea.com
    Bregu.com (Albanian for “coast”)

    there was some more but I just cannot seem to remember them right now lol

    btw Elliot Frengles.com seems to be the best one there from my point of view! Nice buy!

  14. Elliot I didn’t mean to spam your site, when I said “ minimum offer considered for each domain: $50k “ that was meant as a little humor since we all have very high expectations for our newly hand-regged domains. (that’s why I put a little smiley face after that comment.)

    • @ Ojohn – You are right. I had just woken up and someone else had spammed right before you, and I saw your “minimum offer…” and deleted it without realizing the tongue in cheek nature. My bad and sorry.

  15. All domain is medium value for me, but

    ThreeIn1CreditScore.com
    ThreeIn1CreditReport.com

    is zero for me.

    BTW, this my latest handreg:

    VoiceInbox.com
    HumorWidgets.com
    AerodynamicTrailers.com

  16. Not intended as spam – Elliot just letting people know there are great domains out there available for Reg Fee similar to your domains that you hand registered but I can see how this might have been seen as spam.

    Appolgies.

    Robbie

  17. @LittleDevil

    SnapBracelets.com is a fantastic name! Congrats! That was a NameJet exclusive expiring name on Jan 15th… did they let that drop without going to PendingDelete?

  18. @Jason – thanks

    Actually, we were the only bidder on the name on the “Backorder by Date”, so the name was transferred to us instead of going to auction. It was a great find, that others just seemed to overlook on NameJet. It’s a great product name since “Snap” and “Slap” Bracelets are popular with kids, but they typically only sell for less than a dollar, so not sure what to do with the name yet.

  19. @Elliot – Great idea! Didn’t even think of that.. I guess like the BobbleHeads.com venture, we could do something on a smaller scale with “Snap Bracelets”. I like the idea of offering unique materials and designs over a $1.00.

    Thanks for the suggestion

  20. Fun post -seeing everyone’s names.

    Elliot, I love your names. My favorites: CigarEnthusiasts, HeatingOilDelivery, and DeepSeaFishingTour. Had no clue what a Koozie was but now that I do I see the potential!
    Wonder what I dreaming about when I registered these:

    ToMakeMoneySelling.com
    AMillionDollarsMake.com
    MillionDollarsMake.com
    HowMakeMillions.com

    My dream probably won’t happen with these but it is fun trying!

    : )

  21. Elliot,

    I think you have done a pretty good job.

    My Fav. is DeepSeaFishingTour.com

    I dont usualy do to much snapping or handregister.
    But did make a few handregistrations in the past months.

    DirtyRestrooms.com
    EcologicInvestments.com
    EcologicRealEstate.com
    WebTVstreaming.com
    StreamingCompanies.com

    So, if you have time to explore around there are opportunities.

  22. Elliot;

    I like frengles.com;cause it is generic. But where did Fauxcolate.com and Fauxcolates.com gone? They were in your list and they arent anymore??

    Btw some of my handregs are:

    InformationalSites.com
    TopNotchBeaches.com

  23. Elliot

    Great Topic

    Here are my last 10:

    electronicroadsigns.com
    constructionsuperstore.com
    heartchecks.com
    youannounce.com
    nodiscounts.com
    tempsurgeons.com
    lousyeconomy.com
    surgicalcameras.com
    thegpschip.com
    textavote.com

  24. Elliot
    Could you please remove or change my comment above. I accidently wrote my email instead of my name and I don’t want my email to stand there because of obvious reasons like spam or e-mail collectors etc.
    Thanks in advance.
    (you can also delete this comment too)

  25. This all looks very interesting!…2009 and people are still finding these names!!

    I’ve speculated a bit on a few non .COMs, such as tanzanite.asia and trvl.asia

    Is there really good money to be made?…and the big question…HOW?

    Do you make money off your .COMs?
