So doing my daily searching i found a few .coms that are dictionary words that aren't registered. They aren't what you would call daily words, but non the less they are single word domains. My question is are these even worth registering if you can't think of a way to market them? Maybe im answering myself here but seems like 9/10ths of the dictionary is registered. Does that mean its worth it to pick up a one word domain that really isnt a common word or not?


Damnit i started ranting again...

yes. also for the word to have value it should have some practical commercial application.

You have to think of how to use it to make money

I spotted that jetoil.com was not reg'd but couldn't see how to use it to get any income, so I passed on it.

Now I expect you will all tell me that its a thousand dollar domain name.
