So, is your objective to reg, then sell then name, or to develop it?
Nail on the head..
..Unless of course you are talking about a name that gets say starting at at least 150 NATURAL typeins (verifiable) a month for a product or service.
and name with a few hundred quality links ..if you build a website on that "dropped" name ..keeping in mind of cousre you are building into relation to the links.. for example...
lets say you have a dropped name say weternstories.com .. with 200 backlinks.. alll the incoming links have the anchor text western stories , cowboys , the old west etc..
then you re-build according to those links.. the link that says.. "the old west" well you builg a page within your "westernstories.com" called the Old west..and that determines your topic AND the revenue you should be targeting.
Do this with all your inbound links...
and that name is FAR more valuable than a natural type-in that gets 80 natural type-ins a month..
The "links" name will develop that kind of traffic easily every day ..in a very very short time... every 30 days you have (at least) 2,400 uniques while "type-in" guy has 80.. or 160..
Unless of course you object is to simply own hundreds..or thosands of names all getting 1-2-3 type-ins a day and combine all that traffic ..yeah sure people do that.. then to someone like that the "type-in name is more valuable..
But to most of us..that are working under 100 names..really need to concentrate on building for revenues.. and the fast track is with LINK names.. and that is what makes those names valuable.
Probably a personal matter..but in raw terms of traffic.. a domain with good quality links will get more traffic every time..with very basic work.
