Taking a gamble with a hyphenated .mobi! Have you?!


I took a 'gamble' with a hyphenated name today:

i-bet.mobi

i-bet (hopefully!) that this name will be worth the reg fee + as interest in names with hyphens seems to be good at the moment (e.g. SEDO) and my word, "bet" is popular, so I'm hoping that the hyphen will not deter potential end buyers.

Any thoughts/comments? What's your best hyphenated names (if any)? I have one or two more, but I won't post quite yet!

I regged e-Law.mobi today which was my second hyphonated domain ever in any extension and my first reg of the new year. I couldn't resist. I think the names listed here will be worth money in the future.

We are still here at the begining of dot mobi, so we still have some options left (not many, but some) on what we can register. A year from now, you will only be able to get decent recognizable names via the aftermarket at this rate. I don't think it can hurt to get a couple "very nice" e-keywords or i-keywords and ride the wave

What is better :

With hyphen or with a number at the end ?

Eg : "real-estate" or "realestate1"

It's on the longish side, but could be of use to a cellphone store or provider.

Some great names in this thread, let's see yours if you've not posted it yet!

I just picked up cash-flow.mobi which I think will sell well (hopefully!).

Lap-top.mobi
Lap-tops.mobi
E-L.mobi
D-G.mobi
B-G.mobi

The lap-top(s) are a bit of a stretch, of course, but I figured they'd still get a decent return at some point for me, given what laptops.mobi did at auction recently. Only a $37 gamble total on the two!

I haven't done any hyphens with the intent to sell, only to keep others away from siphoning off business for names I intend to develop.
