Are 1 word domains always worth much?

[hypnoticstate]

Hi. I'm new to this game. What I want to know is, are all 1 word (relatively short) domains worth a lot. Does it have to be a well known word to be worth much? Here's an example. www.enraged.com(.org/.net/whatever).

Now enraged isn't available but let's just say it was taken as .com/.net/.org/.us but was available in.co.uk. Would this be worth much? If so or if not, why?

It depends on how generic the keyword is....In most cases, YES. but you won't find available one word domains in .com/.net/.org extensions....

 

[shockie]

in most cases yes. however, there are plenty of "useless" one-word dictionary domains out there that are hard to find end-users for.

It heavily depends on the word and tense.

- Any action word, specifically verbs are the best
- If you are talking about a niche word with no use and a "ly" or "able" ending for example there will not generally be much value.
