domain Xeox dot com - opinions appreciated

[Markith]

I have received an offer in the mid $1,xxx range for Xeox .com. I really like the name and it earns $10-$15 a month parked. Any opinions/advice is appreciated.

Thank you,
Mark

My suggestion is to hold the domain for atleast a few more years.
Its an excellent typo of "xerox.com". Also its a brandable & pronounceable name.

Good Luck.

It's risky as-is, having typosquatting written all over it because it's parked with ads for competitors in the same industry as the well-known brand.

I would keep it and unpark it.

So what do you think I should do NameCharger?

thanks diabro

never heard of the well-known brand name xeox. good 4L.com with a nice ring to it.

all i can see if a 4 letter .com hold on it, until the right offer comes along.

it's a consonant-vowel-vowel-consonant of which you got 2X there and E and O
but I have to agree with google on this matter since it's been considered as a a xerox;com typo.

but im not an expert in 4 letter .com others views might be considered as well good luck with the domain.

but for now you can develop as a blog, a social networking site or even a social bookmarking site.

Whatever you want to do with it, that is your decision. If you do not know who the buyer was offering $1,xxx, it may have been the brand holder trying to settle pre-UDRP.

mike55, I never said xeox was a well-known brand, please read these WIPO cases and you'll understand what I mean:
