I just got a domain name "sync.com", and I need some advice.

    somehow, on my birthday my friend gave me "sync.com" as a present, and im thinking about how should i use it, which i got 2 choices.
    1. build up tech news website.
    2. sell it.
    do you think it worth any?
    i know is a good word dual to nowadays popularity of smartphone, but he never open a website using sync.com. so i was just wondering is it a bad keyword?

    I think you should develop it into a really nice tech-focused website; with a strong focus on entrepreneurialism. I can help you're wanting any; I have plenty of friends in that industry.

    B'day wishes and Congrats on your awesome domain name! :)
    May be the top guns like apple or microsoft may acquire that domain just like the Facebook bought FB.com
    Just find who all are advertising for the keyword sync and also scrape a list from SE results http://www.google.com/search?&q=sync , let them know that the domain name is for sale.

    According to me this domain is super premium and your friend must have a very very big heart that he departs himself from this one.

    Domain sync.com is registered by DNStination Inc.

    Currently domain is registered at Mark Monitor and all big business have their domains registered through Mark Monitor.

    Are you the owner of DNStination Inc. ?

    Completely suspicious!!!

    Nice present, I would suggest you build the best site you can with this, possibly turning sync into a brand name, as it is not a keyword proper. I doubt you will have any trouble selling it anyway, if you want to sell it you can advertise it on my site if you like, I will not charge you. PM me if you are interested.

    Alternatively you can put this domain on Godaddy auction and find out how much worth it is
    I am sure you can get more than $500 easily for this domain

    I'll take a wild guess and say this post is BS...

    Why?

    Mark Monitor works with Fortune 100 Companies, no individual can have an account.

    Unless your friend registered SYNC in another language, which could easily happen with so many IDNs flying around.

    Is this a joke? Both you and "your friend" don't know the value of a domain like sync.com

    I would sell it to Ford... isn't "Sync" the name of their voice activated system?
