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

A|ien · 01-02-2007, 02:16 PM

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!

thinking1 · 01-02-2007, 02:20 PM

I like that one alot. I took the gamble also and registered these:

e-help.mobi
e-stuff.mobi
e-trades.mobi
e-videos.mobi
e-tech.mobi
e-technology.mobi
Cell-Games.mobi
Baseball-Tickets.mobi

v-log.mobi, my only hypened .mobi

Don_OKC · 01-02-2007, 03:04 PM

off-road.mobi

Results 1 - 100 of about 5,350,000 for "off-road"

Jo · 01-02-2007, 03:35 PM

I have a couple of L-L.mobi's, that's all for hyphens.

runsome · 01-02-2007, 03:46 PM

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

seanboy · 01-02-2007, 04:52 PM

i had e-Support.mobi just because i owned esupport.mobi. Besides that, the only names with dashes that I want are N-N and L-L.mobis, which I am still buying if anyone has any

texasgamer · 01-02-2007, 10:07 PM

I have one:
web-cams.mobi

Silhouette · 01-02-2007, 11:49 PM

the hyphenated name is :
Web - Mail . mobi

and YES!!... it is for sale

jettabosko · 01-03-2007, 03:59 AM

I-4.mobi (an interstate in central Florida)

emanuel · 01-03-2007, 04:57 AM

What is better :

With hyphen or with a number at the end ?

Eg : "real-estate" or "realestate1"

Real-Estate

(if they are 2 words, a hyphen is good)
just mho...

.. no flame..

Bodhi · 01-03-2007, 05:04 PM

My only hyphen:

p-c.mobi

rocknrollo · 01-03-2007, 05:14 PM

after seeing this thread I picked up sex-x.mobi

dontknow · 01-03-2007, 05:20 PM

I have cellular-phones.mobi...
It's on the longish side, but could be of use to a cellphone store or provider.

A|ien · 01-03-2007, 06:15 PM

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!).

dag · 01-03-2007, 07:44 PM

My few are:

Internet-Bank.mobi
DVD-R.mobi
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!

mejcdj · 01-03-2007, 08:16 PM

I know I know.. I said I was done.
But.. I could not pass these up.

Car-Finance.mobi
Home-Finance.mobi

I am going to have to sell something soon or I may end up in divorce court!

mejcdj · 01-03-2007, 11:33 PM

Just found
Money-Market.mobi

scandiman · 01-04-2007, 09:35 AM

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.

fixxation · 01-04-2007, 09:48 AM

One of my very few hypen ones...

N-P.MOBI

Anyone from Namepros interested?? I hope there's a mobile version of vBulletin on the way....
