Default What do you think of these domains?

On a little spendy frenzy , I decied to buy some domains to see if I can sell them at auction. What do you think of them?

Snappypappy.com

Lilpal.com

Jollysweets.com

Wehaggle.com

Timelylogos.com

Excellenteating.com

Myspacebro.com(bought this cuz somone has Myspacegirls.com on AH for 176 Thousand dollars and she/he has four bids )

Watchnsave.com
Saleop.com

I think most of them are fun names but I would like to see what you think? Or do you think I just waisted my money ?

Excellenteating.com is pretty good and I'm kind of surprised that was out there. I don't know much about domain name selling but I've heard it's not as easy to sell them as some people think. You're better off trying to sell domains that have a catchy name AND have good traffic. Because these are brand new with no traffic then the value decreases greatly.

But that's not to say you can't make money from them. Do you know of a good site to sell them on?

Just being frank, I really think it's a waste of money to buy domain names in hopes to sell them unless you have the marketing expertise to build traffic to them and make them worth something. You could get lucky and make a buck or two off of one or two but I've read so many stories of people doing this and never making much.

Not trying to be negative, just going off my experience and what others have done. Wishing you the best though!

I'd try to build that excellenteating.com domain and then sell it.

You could put together a directory of fine dining restaurants by city or state; categorize them by the type of food style maybe? - French, Italian, Steak and Seafood etc.. most resturants have their own websites getting them to link to you should be easy, offer awards for best in each category per city/state and they would hopefully display that award linking back to you on their site.

You could offer special deals and advertising would be a fairly easy to get once your directory is big enough?

As a husband I am always looking for a new high class romantic place to take my wife out for her birthday, anniversaries etc...

I think that would be a way better option than trying to sell the domain alone.

On second thought....how much are you asking for it?
