Question Domains using "the" as a prefix?


Why it difficult to find a domain sale using prefix "the" ? how is the value of one word using prefix "the" ?

Depending upon the popularity of the keyword in question the more difficulty you will have in finding a related name. Obviously the keyword.com will be more desirable.

If you definitely need a name using a prefix may have to suffice if your keyword isnt available and/or buying your keyword.com or keyword1Keyword2.com is too expensive.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-newbies/318314-domains-using-the-as-a-prefix.html
Some other prefixes are aKeyword, MyKeyword, eKeyword, iKeyword. You also might want to look into some creative Keyword1Keyword2.com domains.

The value will be diminished by using the prefix and the actual value will be a definite "it depends". I would check out some of the domain parking/ Sales sites, and Expired Domain Auction sites and search for your keyword to see what is available within your budget. If youre not in a hurry you can most likey get a relatively good name.

Actually, the average sales price of names with a "the" prefix is $4,400.00, with the top sale being themortgage.com @ $500,000 on 2000-05-01 via Pvt Sale. Check out www.namebio.com next time you are searching for sales data, it is one of my most visited websites when researching domains.
