Value of Domain Hacks

[xman]

Here's my question..what is the value of domain hack? I've seen some good domain hack and i was wondering about the value of it. I myself own one and i'm not sure whether or not i should get more. I haven't seen any sale of domain hack. Why do we register domain hack? Is it because the domain looks cool or because there's a potential end user who's willing to buy such domain?

may.be? Sure it looks great, but IMO it is just a word without any specification. What can you do with that domain in terms of developing of course?

Well it asks a question , dating, buying, speculating ........etc

may.be isn't bad at all but the price is way too high but may.be it will sell or may.be not but you never know.

I just sold one of my two letter hack in .AM for $17,500 and I feel like I sold it too low. I was debating whether to sell it or not but I needed the money so I had to sell it.

What's the price tag?

What's the price tag?

Undisclosed - but you may be able to glean information (perhaps) once eBay (parent of Paypal) discloses their next quarterly earnings report.

Also important to note that this was obviously not just a domain acquisition as card.io is a pretty established mobile payment company.

Picked up recently

I sold a .us hack a couple of years back. Buyer never changed the whois details although I have asked him to.
I have received 5-6 emails from interested buyers since I sold it.
I don't understand what the interest is about other that it is a hack.

Interesting, I have a domain sale just like that ; not a hack, but buyer never changed who is nor developed it..!

I used to own 2 nice german hacks, 1 of them I dropped and the other I sold for about $2500.

Domain hacks aren’t easy to estimate, the first reason being that they are rare making sales rare as well and interest in them is all but very recent but as increased with the expension of the web 2.0 and the overall saturation of the dot-com space.

ANd with voice search on the way this makes for interesting future for hack names ??

voice search is a novelty that will never be. People are fascinated with advancements in technology so voice search is getting hype only for that reason.

But as I sit hear with a handset and an option to click the voice button on google and use it, I won't as It requires more effort to do a voice search than a type search, especially since the debut of autocomplete.

Also, voice technology, even the best like dragon voice, is notoriously inaccurate. That's why voice technologies will always be second rate to type technologies.
