Value of Domain Hacks

[xman]

Here's my question..what is the value of domain hack? I've seen some good domain hack and i was wondering about the value of it. I myself own one and i'm not sure whether or not i should get more. I haven't seen any sale of domain hack. Why do we register domain hack? Is it because the domain looks cool or because there's a potential end user who's willing to buy such domain?

Yep, "Wigs" is one of mine as well among many others. Think I have around 70 all up. A couple of what I would consider my killer hacks would be:

Cameras
Sofas
Bathrooms
Bedrooms
Coffees
Degrees

I don't have the time or motivation to monetise any of my hacks so have them parked & if a decent offer comes around, then I would consider selling them. Otherwise I'm very happy to sit on them until the right offer comes by.

Just registered today my first and only .rs hack ,which is pretty much the best of the available ones after thinking about it for a few days.

I will post the name after i get the confirmation message from plus.rs

Cheers/

Ok, I received the confirmation I registered Blazers and backed it up with blazers.pro

Product related hack, kinda similar to Weddings in searches and value, but less valueble ( not a lot less).

Any idea what software is Cax using for their hacks appraisal?

I'm surprised I Can't find a site which appraises hacks(not that it makes a difference, these appraisals are mostly bad).


Also, any opinions on 2 word hacks(frenchfri.es)? DriveSafe.ly is pretty nice. These are obv less valueble than single word hacks but are these worthless? In my view, not.

Blazers

Nice single word hack. I see the .com is for NBA.

Regarding 2 word hacks, I think it's rare that there would be much value.

However, I just had a fairly low offer on rightly.so

 

[Edward Smeu]

Yea I know .com is owned by NBA but that was not my (main) target. I'm gonna go with Blazers as clothes I guess.

Also, regarding 2 word hacks , I couldn't resist getting UsedCars and RentalCars as Cars is reserved til 2016 and DriveSafely is my model. UsedCars had been listed at Cax for 26k buy now price by someone but I mailed them that I own that. Probably shouldn't

Check out Colours , they have a great collection of hacks (webnames) including a few 2 word names and some nice sales!

B&J, a nice sale indeed. congratulations.

Do you have special monetization platform for hacks?

We do have premium geo hacks like texas, vegas, dallas and special niches like flowers, toners etc.

I would be interested in hearing from you. Drop me a PM if you have a solid monetization or development plans for these premium hacks.

As a local I can tell you that Bucharest is the English version. It's Bucuresti in Romanian.
I don't think you will get more than low xxx for that in the next 1-2 years. GL though.

Facebook announced that they bought instagr.am for 1 Billion USD.

Of course, the price was paid for the app but intagr.am is still a hack.

Hacks seem like a great fit for apps. One I sold last year has been developed into a hack that has been featured in the Wall Street Journal even though its still in the beta stage.
