I have four great domain names for sale. Each of these domains was registered for a potential project. In the past 15 years, I have launched a dozen web sites, built traffic, and then sold most of these web sites at a nice profit. I know the value of a good domain name and I have a fair idea of what works and what doesn't. But now, I plan to retire by the end of the year. No more projects.
For each of the four domains, I have slapped together a web site and posted some articles to give an idea of what could be done, and also to get the name seeded in the search engines. These news articles are real, but are mostly press releases that I have rewritten and cleaned up.
Here are the domains for sale:
FancyFree.com. This domain name was intended for a site that focused on the single traveler, as in foot loose and fancy free, ready for romance and travel.
PassengerNews.com. There are many travel sites, but few focus on the particular needs of the passenger. Revenue to come from online bookings and referrals.
poWWWer.com. Just seven letters, pronounceable and it shouts about the power of the World Wide Web.
Yurp.com. This is a goofy domain name, but with a serious thought behind it, inspired by the way George W. Bush and others pronounce Europe. But, there are many other meanings of "yurp" in current urban slang.
Edward Hasbrouck, author of The Practical Nomad books, is a forceful advocate for the rights of airline passengers. To gather material for his books, articles, broadcast interviews and talks, he attends many industry conferences where he can be expected to ask hard-hitting questions. This week, Hasbrouck was in Alexandria, Virginia to attend the "Aviation Secuirty Summit" organized by World Research Group, Inc. -- only to be ordered to leave at the first coffee break!
On his blog, Hasbrouck reports that the organizers of this conference had mailed him an invitation, addressed to "Edward Hasbrouck, Author, The Practical Nomad." He submitted the same information identifying himself as an author in order to download more information. The conference organizers followed up with a phone call from one of their salespeople, who listened to his voicemail -- again identifying his profession -- before leaving him messages urging me to attend.
