Is it really a "typo"

[ccm]

let's say I have a domain typo of "clown" say, xlown, it would be considered a typo naturally because the letters are next to eachother on the keyboard, correct?
would you call, "olown" a typo of clown? when the letters are no where near eachother?
I see alot of this and wonder if I am the only one that gets a little aggravated over it.
Just wondering,,,,,,,,
Pharles, haha, a "typo" of Charles?

I have been seeing your second example a lot and people are calling them typos, but I don't think they are. For it to be a typo, there has to be a possibility someone would accidentally type it. They'd have to hit a letter all the way across the keyboard and miss the letter they want..

to me, this just sees like common sense. these obscure letter typos must fetch a lot less (if anything) on the market than 'true' typos.

any letter + "yspace.com" is considered a typo, no matter where on the keyboard the letter is.
