domain Closed

Anyone have any knowledge in regards to .ca domain names. Picked up the following domain after it expired. I generally stay away from non 1 word .ca domains but I felt this one was worth an exception.

Thoughts?

Thanks

I tried to go for that one too, lol. But, you obviously got there before me. x)

It's a great name in that everyone knows and recognizes the term "Free WiFi", but the issue is: "free" isn't exactly sexy. So, it's hard to sell/monetize (IMO).

My idea, and probably everyone else's too, was to create a map of free wifi spots. Create site/app and monetize with ads.

Something else you might be able to do is: supply public spaces and businesses with Free Wifi (for free to the business), and then find a way to monetize the users (with ads?). But, this would be a lot more capital and time intensive.

I'm not sure what else to say. It's a fairly limited domain, and hard to put a numeric value on...

Good luck!

I'm sure we weren't the only ones eying that one. Anyways, I listed it at Godaddy as a 7 day auction with a reasonable start price for a quick flip. We'll see how it goes.

I actually gave it some further though. Thinking I could monetize this. Thinking about what you said, a database of all free wifi locations across Canada.
