.mobi A good example of why OVT isn't everything...

[dag]

For those of you buying .MOBIs on OVT alone, here's a good reason why a decent OVT might not equal value:

"Hairy arm(s)" -- 10,897

Now I don't know about you, but I don't think hairyarms.mobi is going to be worth that much (and yes, it is available).

But hey, that's just :imho: (to use the acronym appropriately).

:gn: :sold:

Conversely, my name "nethost.mobi" has almost no OVT, and I've had several offers on it. No, OVT isn't everything.....

In the case of .mobi, I think you have to look at it from whether you might want to browse of access it from the mobile and not strictly by term or keyword.. hairy arms is high OVT because it represents a fetish category, but not likely to be searched for on a cell phone.

I don't know why people won't satiate their fetishes on the go.

Ditto... we have enough problems with people driving and talking on their cellphone.. we don't need them satisfying primal urges too.

I totally agree but the facts are that porn .mobi names are seeing some of the best traffic for parked names. Jollies on the go.

I'm actually thinking of registering hairyarms.mobi, I think it might get traffic.

Or trying to click a pic on the cell of their hairy armpits while driving and uploading it to the site.
