I can see a number of these getting picked up - there a few others I'm surprised they accepted the high reserve and can't see selling because of it. What do you think?

dictionary 4L.com are much sought after,is the same true for .ca?i'm sitting on a handful unregd and i'm wondering if these things are liquid.

I sold 12+ already at 5k each and 2 for 10k

also....

Turned down 8k for movu
Turned down 5k for mtro

The right ones have value, the wrong ones will drain you. There are hundreds available so pick carefully.
With my analytics history I will drop about 50 of them with zero activity but my others are doing really well.

If I get clicks and activity I keep them, if no activity I drop them. That rule applies in most cases for me unless I think the domain has a particular end user.

The other thing I do is I count each visit regardless of IP. So if the same ip clicks two dozen times I count that because it shows me someone is looking.

You have to look at all data, dedicated clicks, repeat clicks, type in etc.
The tools are available if you seek them out.

I didn’t realize how short I am until I stood next to him.

He is a giant of a man, he will make anyone look small.

unregd ?
i doubt there are many/any unregged 4l.ca dictionary words left...and if they are unregged then are u really sitting on them?

as for liquid..there is nothing really liquid about any .ca names..unless its some super short thus super rare stuff.. like go.ca or such

I actually misread his post, thanks for pointing that out.

Dictionary 4 letter does not apply to my comments above.
I was talking about straight 4 letters

that's why nobody knew they were there,i was sitting on them!

I would buy them but I would expect them to be in portfolio for at least two years.

oberlo 15000 (and that's just a mishmash of 6 letters)

That was just a big US .COM buying the .CA alternate - has really nothing to do with nothing.

done.5 dictionary 4Ls $22.50 Can.

To be honest some of the best sales come when intl. based companies secure the .ca, they have no idea what they are walking into, and usually pay .com type pricing. Agree the keyword sample is random, and buyer got very lucky. Much like Ampli sale.

Triangle is in a league of its own. One-word shape domains are just about as generic, brandable, and memorable as it gets (also, colours + animals).

Some one-word plants/flowers and foods are good too.

dictionary 4L.com are much sought after,is the same true for .ca?i'm sitting on a handful unregd and i'm wondering if these things are liquid.

If they are base/core/root words (no plurals, prefixes and suffixes) and still in use, I would buy them all day, but I don't think there are too many left.

An example with your hand-reg:

Expert.ca
Expertly.ca

All things being equal, which one would you rather have?

now that they're regged, its time to remember this is also a showcase thread

Of those, I would have definitely hard reg'd DOUR.CA.

Keep that for 2 years and it'll probably sell.

i hope the retail giant Tuesday Morning Corp. expands into canada.nasdaq stock symbol Tues.750 stores.come north,come north.

Stock symbols don't mean anything (or all those junk LLLs that drop would be worth 4-5-figures) and the company would want the corresponding .CA to their current tuesdaymorning.com brand, which incidentally is already taken.

This will actually be a good 1 year test, see where they end up in a year.

Triangle should have sold for at least 100k

Canadian Tire Corporation stole this one. It is now used for the triangle rewards program for Canadian Tire, Marks Work Wear House, and Sports Check. Whoever sold that one for 15k should be kicking themselves right about now and this is why I always insist on knowing who the end user is.

My buy form at https://mapledots.ca/contact/ must be filled out or I will not sell a domain.

FreightExchange.ca

Guys, should I keep it or let it go?

www.triangle.ca​

Wholeheartedly + completely agree. End-user knowledge - in this case especially - was invaluable.

$15k is a relatively low price for anyone, let alone a $10B corp.

I have no intentions of making the same mistake with my domain - Rhombus // ca.

 

[MapleDots]

FreightExchange.ca

Guys, should I keep it or let it go?

I can only say that I would personally drop it.

Why?

There are too many viable options to the word ie:

FreightEx.ca or FreightX.ca

I have a couple of similar

PetEx as in PetExpress but notice I did not register pet express.
I meant this as a pet food delivery company (nobody wants to lift those heavy bags)
I actually sold this name previously and the owner closed the business and I picked it up a second time.

I also have

dotx and dotex short for dotExchange and again I did not register DotExchange

I also have RippleX and I did not register RippleEx because of the double E or RippleExchange

So speaking from some experience I would drop it and not only for the above but also because most of that infrastructure is already in place.

I hope that helps.
