    Do a search on keyword trackers.. there is one called overture? or something like that.. there should be a few of them.. compare them all to get a basic idea of the search numbers..

    Lol. I had told my father to pre-register (or whatever it's called) lawyers.me (for sure figuring that lawyer.me would be unavailable) during the land rush. My father is a lawyer so obviously I figured this domain name would be GREAT for him. It's in the domain.me auction as I'm writing this comment.

    Wish us luck. :)

    UPDATE: We are losing this auction so far. :(

    Every one who decide to sell domain, for example insure.me, for even 30.000$ is stupid, the price should be minimum 500.000$

    i hate how everyone commonly thinks of registering domain names to resell them.. thats what half this thread is about, "if i have blahblah.me how much will i make" create develop instead of feeding off others in creativity.

    i have idfuck.me not really looking to do anything with it, just a joke name to have really.. i was included in the auction for pic.me but didnt pursue it

    It's a bit early yet to be talking values on .me domains wait to see how things settle down first, personally I wouldn't be investing so much money in .me auctions, at least not for some names like unblock.me purely because .ME's future is so uncertain just now.

    There will be certain names like insure.me which will always have value and if you have the money to invest in them, they are surely a sound investment.

    I can undertsand that somebody is feeling unpatient with people asking immediantly"how much can i do with this"
    It happen to me too...but to tell i hate people which think to reg and resell...i would say...calm!!!
    I do that at least once a day!!
    So what??
    I don t feed on anybody
    So all gold, oil or treasure seekers are son of....
    I understand you are a creative
    But...even every mum is...and they don t think they are better ...

    Oh right, my apologies

    but isn't reselling the whole point of domaining lol, whether you develop it or not. If you develop a name fair enough but you still do it to RESELL it. The obvious questions of value are always going to come up, it's only natural, it's like buying a house "will it still have it's value in 10 years time if i decide to sell up?"

    So I think it's silly to say everyone commonly thinks about registering names just to resell them, but I understand your reasoning NyCxZeRo, there are a lot of wasted names there's no question about it, but there are lots of devd ones too and people are realising now that development will make you more money in the long run.

    I totally agree with you.
    I personally bought some .Me and i am not going around asking other's opinion about how much they could value
    i will sit and wait, but at the same time it happen that i reg other domains which i sell imediantly, whitout even think about it
    I personally considering developing a wonderful skill which i don t have..and a great and sure investement.
    I admire who has this skill, and everytime i say"jesus if i would have that skill!!"
    But again sometime it happen that i reg and resell immediantly, and if , for this reason i had to be hate by somebody...well good enough
    Life is too short

    If you are using the domain to make money out of adsense, i.e. feeding off keywords and search engine traffic, then it makes no difference.

    If you plan to simply resell the domain, then the hyphen (-) will substantially devalue it.
