Play On Words Domains

    So I own a domain, http://PleaseLink.Us which is a play on the words. Do people consider this type of domain worth more because of that? I have several that are open and I might register.

    Hmmmm... apart from an easy-to-remember name, I don't see any other value! And for one to remember it, he has to first land on the site and that needs a marketing/promotional budget!

    Agreed, I can't really see much value in that domain unless developed.

    I think it's a cool idea - but also as the others suggested, the domain needs to be developed to be of real value -

    There are lots of these available esp. in 'useable' extensions like .us and .in but my advice:
    -Save your money and buy a handful of solid AFTERMARKET names with history , traffic and revenue with potential to resell to as broad an market as possible.

    There is a reason some names are still available.

    Good Luck from someone who has been there hand-regging names like crazy.

    I don't think it has any added value because you could do that with almost any combination of words.

    For example, touch.us, letsgotothe.us, etc...
