Utterly stupid.

FWIW, I would never click on your links.

What I would be likely to find:

--Porn
--Malware
--Scams
--Link farms
--Ads
--Bogus surveys​

I think these names have huge commercial potential, also what's great with names like these is that they have a long shelf life :zzz:

ocaiodeath.com is tempting

Why not add Obama or Biden to the lot, so you know you are going to land in some DHS watchlist.

Are you one of those guys, who register domains after avery disaster or tragedy? You read, before spend more money. These are negative and crapy domains IMO.

 

[ocaio]

Probably is a crazy idea, but think carefuly about it.

Famous people has been killed by internet hoax several times. f.ex Lady Gaga already died for the third time. When Will Smith "died" a few days ago the news in Facebook received 1M "likes".

Do you guys realize the viral potential that these names could have?

Obviously is just an experiment, but for "each time" these people dies the volume searches increase exponentionaly in a few days and if the owner of this domains know how to use them correctly can see high posibilities of people clicking on his ads.

Check out the statistics of those keyword searches in google:

Bob Marley Death - Competition - 4% - Broad Searches: 60.500 - CPC: 1,04 €
Elvis Death - Competition - 2% - Broad Searches: 49.500 - CPC: 0,36 €
Eminem Death - Competition - 0% - Broad Searches:27.100 - CPC: 1,33 €
Rihanna Death - Competition - 1% - Broad Searches: 9.900 - CPC: 0,83 €
Will Smith Death - Competition - 2% - Broad Searches: 9.900 - CPC: 0,58 €

I know is not impressive at all.... at the moment... But you've checked the competition?

Build a good content in a mini blog related this issue, Include ads, work on SEO to stay in the top of SERP's, and then start a campaing with news here and there, some posts, link building and emails, some movements around social medias and let the viral process continue working.

In some cases, like Eminem's, has 0% of competition!!!!!!

Don't you guys really see the potential that this names have?

And in the meantime, if you are lucky and Lady Gaga appears dead in a toilet with her nose covered with a "cloud of dust" after a big party I think you can probably go to holidays for the next 6 months at least.

Just check out what happened when michael jackson dead in 2009:

http://www.google.com/trends/explore?q=michael jackson death&cmpt=q#q=michael jackson death&cmpt=q

Wouldn't you wondered to have a blog whith content and ads the day it happened?

Think about it. Is it really a crazy idea? I really appreciate valued opinions, not just "clown idea" or "ocaiodeath.com is tempting"... I recognize I'm newbie, not like you (domains gurus). And that's why I ask you. Any constructive criticism will be welcome.

I don't use to. I thougt about it once and I wanted to do the experiment..

You said me to read about doing this. Where can I find more info about doing this?

Thanks!

This is one of the constructive criticism I was looking for!

I'm newbie, and have a lot to learn. At least there still exist helpful people. I didnt even know there were threads talking about this matter. Thank you Eurorealtor!

Why Alecia Keys? I'm sure she will outlive the OP. Waaay too pretty to leave planet earth just yet :imho:

You can set up a site discussing the deaths of these individuals, but they might hit back legally. You will be testing new waters. Especially if you are going to optimize it and fill the site with sensational topics surrounding their death while they are alive.

You say you will monetize the site with ads but by doing so, you are benefiting commercially from the use of the celebrities names-which are TMs. And then showing ads relating to the celebrity in question could be especially dangerous.

And in the meantime, if you are lucky and Lady Gaga appears dead in a toilet with her nose covered with a "cloud of dust" after a big party I think you can probably go to holidays for the next 6 months at least.

I think you would probably need to consult with an IP lawyer for the next 6 months at least should you face legal issues because of these domains.

 

[sbweb]

Those domains are simply disturbing and immoral.

Making money is one thing, but when you cross the line and try to monetize a tragedy, it's not right.

IMO.

You're probably right. But do you think it could be a problem if I only use these domains to have a mini blog just to advise others about those fake news published in other sites around internet and without any ads in it, with the only purpose of get traffic and try to deliver it to another page?

What I see is a vulture trying to cash in on potential tragedy, the kind of person who gives domaining a bad name.

Not pretty at all.

You asked for an opinion, and we gave it.

No. Your intent was wrong.

You clearly meant to benefit from these individuals deaths. Where did that 6 month holiday come from? Why the celebrity "name" + "death"? Why so many celebrities?

You are willing to develop each one of these to such an extent that it ranks high in search engines and generates sufficient traffic that you could monetize and go on 6 month holidays each time when something bad happens.

All that effort for each domain?

You can focus on one site, generate traffic the same way you intended to, on a subject that is not negative, does not benefit from tragedy or deaths, does not cause harm to others, and does not infringe on tms.

My opinion: delete these names. That's the only option really.

 

[Kate]

I agree, people capitalizing on death and tragedies are giving us a bad name.

Why not focus on something more positive (and more lucrative too). Not to mention you risk finding yourself in hot waters. These domains have TM issues.

Just because you are newbie isn't an excuse for lack of common sense or ethics :imho:
I think you've read too many BS stories about people making big bucks with domains and retiring to the beach :blink:

 

[4pm]

In some cases, like Eminem's, has 0% of competition!!!!!!

when it comes to EMDs:

Please note that competition numbers reported by Google do not mean competition among sites or webmasters (which is related but not equal to).. they rather indicate a competition level among ADVERTISERS for those keywords.

So the lower competition the less advertisers want their ads to be placed in the search results for your keywords. Hence 0% competition is your worst scenario - you've probably got searches but no paid ads from Google Adsense = $0 revenues...

simply put 0% competition is a bad thing, your keywords are junk..
on the other hand 100% competition = you've probably got right keywords, but check CPC and exact searches first before screaming "Look guys what i got!!!!!!"

[gilescoley]

Bad taste IMO,drop the names

 

[BasedBeyond]

I've lost money on domains before when I started, about $100. Take the loss buddy and register domains that are brandable or have good keywords in them that don't involve negativity. From one domain newbie to another. These domains weren't a good choice to start with imho. But good luck with whatever you choose to do, either to stay and learn the domain business or drop out.

Thank you all for your reply!

So many people indicating it is a bad choice registering those domains because of serveral reasons. I’m newbie, you’re not. I didn’t receive even 1 good comment, so obviously It has been a bad idea.

I recognize I didn’t think about all those reasons you mentioned and its consequences. But your explanations are more than reasonable.

What should I do? Can I delete the domains before them expire then?

 

[johname]

Just checking the elvis one, you bought it on the 4th. So you had them too long to get your money back/credit.

Normally I would tell someone to autorenew off the names, let them sit/try to unload them.

But with the terrible topic and real problems they can cause you I would delete all them now.

 

[Ms Domainer]

thanks!

I know it's difficult to let go of your domains, but, in this case, I would do just that.

At GoDaddy, you have the option to delete domains. Godaddy will hold the domains for about 30-31 days and then release them to the registry. (Names deleted by owners don't go to auction).

I'm sorry we were so hard on you, but, sometimes, a good swift kick is what's necessary.

I'm certainly glad that you seem to have taken our comments to heart.

Hello,

I already initiated the deleting process.

Thank you guys for your responses and advices. I think I have to pay more attention, and do it carefully before having new "great ideas"

That's a good sign-not that I am superstitious or anything.

Congrats! :tu:

You gotta learn before you register names else...you may end up registering thedeathofmybusuness dot me
