Just getting into the whole buying domains thing, I have always owned domains, and played around with websites.

Own a few of them my self.

But today I landed .ASTFL.com (ALL STAR TALKING FORUMS LOUNGE)


Just wondering, how and where do I go to setup parking for it to make money off ad clicks.

Thank you.
Caleb Stevens

Unfortunately you are going to run into trademark issues.

Read up on the forum a little before you go out buying more domains, and don't buy trademarks.

Trademarks aside (not sure what one we are talking about) your parking problem is that there doesnt look to be any targeting going on here.(i really doubt thats possble unless you are piggybacking on someone) Looks like your displaying furnace ads. ALL STAR TALKING FORUMS LOUNGE is that something you made up? Just look at first to see if there any type in traffic at all. Your plastering it on np messes up your traffic data. People should test the traffic before posting them in a forum. Goodluck

When i put ALL STAR TALKING FORUMS LOUNGE in Google, then the first result is this Namepros Thread. So much for "Pretty Decent Domain".

Don't want to be rude, but this is a worthless Name.

Read More in Forums to find out which Names SHould be registered / bought, and which Shouldn't.

5 Letter BRandables are only worth something (sometimes even nothing) if they are pronounceable, pass the radio test, are brandable, etc.
Such made up accronyms are pretty much worthless with 5 Letter Names.

That's great advice - if you can pronounce it, it's valuable.

(even better if there's only one way to spell it!)

OP changed his original post after I made my reply.

His original post was a lot more descriptive and originally said All Star T*o*u*c*h F**tball L*e*a*g*u*e

I figured that was the one, I wouldn't lose sleep having the touch people's acronym, especially as i dont see the phrase or acronym trademarked and their site (there two candidates) dont look like much.

keep in mind that you don't have to REGISTER a trademark to have a trademark.

Oh i totally understand that lol

Still I see no tm and a foe that would rather have a free cheeseburger than UDRP "me" but op the usual its your call


\/ not listed where i looked it up, hey its not my name and i am not going to spend an hour going into this further, but i wouldnt have a concern owning this name if i wanted to use it for something other then a touch football league. But your concern is noted and appreciated.

What do you mean you see no tm?

The league has been using that name since 1993, it's a trademark.

The domain has many acronyms. Does the Touch Football League use the acronym? I'd be comfortable parking this domain just as long as it doesn't show Touch Football type ads. But having said that, I don't believe this domain has any great intrinsic value.

#1. Astfl.com - This is not a talking forum. This recently was a digital surveillance company selling security cameras. The company was called Advanced Security Technologies of South Florida.


#2. This can be monetizie but you'll need to use keywords related to the prior content. Not sure where everyone is getting this Allstar talking forum from but its not that.


Hope this helps,
