15 companies that understand generic domains

[Arpit131]

Generic, keyword dot com domains are pretty damn awesome. You’ll hear different perspectives from different people. Some will say the value has slipped over the years while others will say that they are more valuable than ever. Regardless of your position, there is no denying that great domains should be put to great use. Here are 15 examples of companies putting generic domains to work where they belong by pointing them to their brand:

1. ringers.com – Cowbells.com (bonus points for double generic names)
2. famous.com – FamousFootwear.com
3. teeth.com – RedwoodCityDentistry.com
4. buckets.com – Bwaycorp.com
5. leaner.com – hgh.com (ok, this one seems sketchy)
6. mental.com – nvidia-arc.com/index.php
7. director.com – adobe.com/products/director.html
8. tires.com – discounttire.com/dtcs/home.do
9. bite.com – dentalxchange.com/home/Home
10. review.com – princetonreview.com
11. sold.com – auction.com (this is great!)
12. ereader.com – barnesandnoble.com/b/nook/_/N-1pbl
13. scrapmetal.com – pullapart.com
14. fixtures.com – wn.com/fixtures
15. privateplanes.com – mantovani.net (oh, this one is “private” – no pun intended)

WN.com has a ton of generics; they're probably the largest generic owners on this list. Most of their sub-pages correspond to a generic domain.

That's the sad part is they don't take note until someone actually gets infront of them and is allowed to show them how it helps them out.
