Advice needed on www typos registration

[petrosc]

Hello,

I have made a list of available www typos (e.g wwwdomain.com) of domains with ovt w/ext 1000-3000.... should I register them? Are www typos receiving any significant traffic?

Thanks

it all depends on the "target" site. Not at all about OVT.

what do you mean?...

Hmmm hard to tell, it all depends on the content, wouldnt reg the www typo of a gaming site, but im very satisfied with realestate www typos... If you are not going to reg all i would like to see the list...

Thank you for your remarks.... I don't understand though, what would be the difference between two domains with 2000 ovt, one a gaming domain and the other one a real estate domain. Why should the real estate domain name receive more traffic? Anybody can miss the "dot" after the www, regardless if the domain is realestate or gaming or anything else. Why is content important in this case?

What you need to do is see how much overture with extension the real domain has. For example, if loans.com has overture with extension of 5013, then you're likely to do good with wwwloans.com.

I wouldn't base my decision about registering a "www" typo based on plain overture for a keyword.

If you have overture w/ ext, there is a better chance of getting type-ins for that name.

I have a couple of loan "www" typos where the domains have overture w/ extension as low as 100 that make me money. Obviously, the more OVT w/ext, the better.

And what I think tetrapak is trying to say is that it's better to register a typo of highpaying keywords such as "real estate" than it is to register something where you probably wouldn't make much per click, like "gaming".

I was talking about overture with extention.....

 

[capiche]

Doh! Just noticed that. Then yes, those would be good choices as long as the keywords were relatively high paying ones, such as loans, real estate, mortgage, poker, etc, etc

the thing is that i happen to have a www that has ovt w/ext 50k and receives minimal traffic while another www typo with ovt 500- gets over 500 uniques/month. I just can't figure out which ones get the traffic and which ones don't... it has to be something with the first letters and their possition on the keyboard...

At least 80% of the time, more Ovt w/ext has meant more traffic for me
