About registering mottos

[jorgemar]

Hi,

What do you think about registering mottos or short memorables quotes? It seems to be a good idea: cogitoergosum.com, timeismoney.com, and so on. They are sentences very popular for the mankind.

BUT this kind of domains aren't been sold easily. In fact, if you look the lists of sales, these domains never appear.

If you may discover an available domain of this type, would do you register it?

Regards

Yes, definitely. If you do search of all popular sayings, you will find that almost are already taken, even some really long ones (i've found).

Even some are taken with hyphens.

ive got these domains, any comments

Balls-Up.com
EndsMeet.net
HitBottom.net
JumpAt.net
LockHorns.net

 

[lzy]

Are those common sayings? :o

it may depend where you come from ?

I have and still do!
Since everything great is gone.
LLL, LLLL, etc.
And since ALOT of good, is far and few between...
I have faith, that "memorable" is very important.
Just my hunch, but if you see something such as this,
that ISN'T registered, and YOU dont want to register it...
I WILL!
Just my 2cents!

I've had MustSeeToAppreciate.com for years without inspiration or offers

Good example:
State Farm:
http://www.nowwhat.com

Two Parked:
http://www.WhatNext.com
http://www.WhatNow.com

Both of which I typed in while trying to think of State Farm's real site.

timeismoney.com - Definately worth regging
cogitoergosum.com - What the???????

BUT this kind of domains aren't been sold easily. In fact, if you look the lists of sales, these domains never appear.

What do you mean? I've seen a number of these as reported sales in the $xxx to $x,xxx range.

I free regged a "saying" then got lucky & was approached about 4 months later & sold for $1500. Turns out it was this company's 'motto'

So I like 'em!

cogitoergosum.com - What the???????

It is a quote from philosopher Descartes
Obviously mottos are depently from the place you are from

 

[gilescoley]

well "Lock Horns" and "Ends Meet" are populat sayings or phrases

not sure of the value though
