    Misspelled domain names are only as good as the traffic they bring in. You may as well use a nonsense domain.

    The amount of typo traffic you'll get is nothing compared to the grief you'll get from infringing someones 'trademarked' domain.

    If you are trying to monetize a TM typo this would be considered using the domain in bad faith, and will land you in legal trouble. Generic typos would be ok but 99% of the worthwhile typos would be registered already.

    yes from what I hear you are better off staying away from any typo domains. and also most of the typos now redirect to the official domain.
