Yahoo.is for sale

You are playing with fire if you do not know what you are doing.

BBComputers would be ok yes, but believe you me, nothing could work or any good come of, owning or developing in anyway, shape or form, anything spelling exactly, the word Yahoo.

By all means, if this avenue appeals to you, go for it, I'm not here to stop you, but don't get crying when their lawyers come after you waving a big stick and taking you for everything you own.

 

People from certain countries has the culture of high uncertainty avoidance. They avoid, at all cost, anything that remotely sounds like a risk, smells like a risk or looks like a risk. These people will not risk $10 to have a good potential gain of $1,000, or will not risk $10,000 for a potential gain of $10,000,000.

Who cares if Yahoo can claim Yahoo.is or not? If it is up for grab for $1,000, I will be the first person to bid on that. Blah blah blah. Enough said. You need an "investor" brain to know these things.

 

It's more to do with commonsense as there is going to be a lot more tightening up in the next year or two as larger companies come after domainers who are cybersquatting or using brand names, trademark names with typo spelling errors.

Already there has been a few cases where larger companies have sued for this kind of infringement, loss of potential business, through lost traffic etc.

Certainly, to survive in business means taking measured risks, but to purposefully use such domains piggybacking to profit oneself, it's simply asking for trouble.

Most domainers with an ounce of commonsense advocate strongly for the good of anyone considering doing this to think more wisely and re-evaluate their personal business action plans.

At the end of the day, it's just not worth it, taking the risk to lose everything. To do so is just totally irresponsible.

 

Thanks for sharing your opinions.

 

You are wrong! Yahoo has never used before Shammi Kapoor's song " Chahe koi mujhe junglee kahe" Listen the word yahoo here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4L64ZVW5LKs and Kashmir ki Kali was very much successful.
