Haditha is a city in Iraq where several apparently unarmed Iraqi civilians (including women and children) were killed by US soldiers following an IED attack. This is shaping up to become the biggest scandal since My Lai in Vietnam.

Some stats:

  • 42,000,000+ Google results for haditha
  • 11,000+ Google news story results for haditha
  • Most gTLDs (com, net, org, info) taken.

All constructive appraisals and comments welcome!

Cheers,

Rob

Despite the fact that it's allegedly US troops, that doesn't really help the keyword to fit the .us extension.

How do plan to monetize it?

Thanks phronesis for the comments...

Well, the top US general did visit and state that this was unacceptable behaviour, and a court martial for murder appears in the works. .US because it could (is) a significant in US (political and military) history.

As for monetization, well content development comes first, so blogging news as a team... 11,000 current news articles about this story means there are significant eyeballs waiting to be CTRed using either CPC or CPM monetization methods (Adsense, YPN, etc.)

I think this will require the development you've mentioned for it to have any value. I doubt you'll get any type-ins with the .us extension, so you will be relying completely on development. It's also a rather time sensitive domain name. I personally don't believe interest in this will last very long. Thats not to say you wont have a decent run with it, but I wouldnt consider it a long term investment. It's not a general political domain, its extremely specific, so as soon as interest dies out, so does the domain.

Personally, I'd develop it, get the traffic and PPC and sell it for a nice chunk.

Thanks slipxaway for the insight. Being developped as we speak .. something basic but with spider-friendly content :) Will also promo the site using some PPC (Adsense, etc) to attract traffic ASAP.

Now up to 55M Google search results and 16K Google news results... ramping up!

looks like not much here, needs development and the .us doesn't work all that well in this case

It cannot be said strong enough -- an Iraqi city with a US extension? That doesn't mix. Reg fee at best.
