I noticed that ,COM Names using single dictionary words minus the last letter of the word seem to sell on Godaddy like hypothetically Announc.com instead of Announce.com which is minus the e. Is every Single Dictionary Word minus the letter no matter the length worth spending the $12 registration fee & are these domains almost certainly resellable for at least $1,000 on Auction?

Appreciate your advice as I found several, albeit long dictionary words that are available minus the last letter to register;

You would need to check on The Trade Mark incase of any issues in breaching it.

Unless you have a time machine, there are very few .com's, if any, available for hand registration that will certainly resell for at least $1,000 at auction, regardless of the pattern.

I'm talking dictionary names I used Hydorxide as an example which is apparently is trademarked. Thank You for pointing this out to me. I'm going to see if I can Re-edit the title and my thread, Let's use the word Announce for example. It is Announc.com minus the last letter So if you found a dictionary word .COM domain that was missing the last letter would you automatically register it for the minimum price? Are these words minus the last letter all likely to make at least $1000 in auction. Thank you for pointing out the unintended error I made for my example

The answer is a resounding NO. There are 0 domains that you can handregister for $10 that can make actual money in an auction, unless you happen to hit the jackpot with a specific future trend early and then later when the trend matures into demand, you already have something valuable and can sell it then. Every dictionary word that has value with one less letter at the end is already registered and most words minus a letter are worthless. Read a few weeks, or more preferably months, about domains before you spend any money buying domains, because it's clear based on your question that you have no idea what you're doing. Good luck.

Sentence isn’t even a particularly good name so dropping a letter isn’t doing it any favours.

You're probably right but I'm willing to Gamble for $12.19 registration

Can you give examples of those (real) names that have been sold lately? I'm aware of chocolat.com, but chocolat is French for chocolate, so it doesn't count here.

If you spend a little more time learning you wouldn't have to be gambling on names like this and would be getting names that you know will sell at a certain STR :xf.wink:

100 gambles on names like this will generally result in 0 sales.

100 purchases of names likely to sell at 1% results in a successful domain investing business.

BIAC is a 4L regged in 44 extensions.

Tripl is regged in 46 extenions.

Sentenc is regged in 3 extensions. (One is you, and another is a .es hack on sentences.)

One of these names is not like the others.

Tripl belongs to special cases such as bubbl(e), pebbl(e), candl(e) etc. In contrast to sentenc(e) (e.g.), I know how to pronounce them without the last letter.

He asked for examples and I gave him the first 2 examples I saw on the first page. I am not going to spend hours scrolling Godaddy Auctions for examples. I do not even know what the word regged which I am assuming means registered means in the context of this.

It means those names are valuable and yours is not.

Sorry if you can't pronounce sentenc . You asked for examples and I gave you examples. I provided exactly what you requested per your wording. End of Story

How is biac even relevant? (what's the last letter omitted?)

Appreciate your advice
