I registered a typo today with 92 overture and 119 overture w/o ext according to startname.com The other stats have been copied and pasted here with the domain name changed. I know that the site gets a lot of traffic and I know I won't really know if it was a good buy until I check the stats but I was wondering what your thoughts were on the subject.

Domain Total Alltheweb Altavista Google Google w/ext Google w/o ext HotBot MSN Overture Overture w/o ext Alexa 3mo. Reach Rank Dmoz listed Yahoo listed

I know the stats above are garbles, but you can make the connections if you're interested. The site's Alexa ranking is in the top 35 000

Yea, it will depend on how many visitors it gets. Sounds like it's probably worth reg fee at least!

The worth of a typo is in the traffic it generates :)

as said above, a typo is as valuable as the type-ins it gets, and if the numbers are sustainable, you can still make some $$ off it via advertising and other income generating methods related to the domain it's a typo of.
