I just bought www.dominiondirectory.com
This is a marketing company in Canada and they are tied to yellow pages.
I checked with Alexa's Way Back machine and sure enough, from 1999 to 2006 this was indeed a Yellow Pages website/directory.
Even if the site has been down for 3 years 200-500 people per month are STILL keying in Dominion Directory. And the traffic would be very targeted I presume (clients looking to advertise in Yellow Pages).
Now am I violating any copyrights with this? Since the domain only contains generic wording I beleive I'm ok?
Should I fully develop the website and then approach Dominion Directory/Yellow Pages or just contact them right away?
Should I sell, lease or develop the site?
Any feedback much appreciated.
