Generally, short domains have far fewer typos.

just to have in mind : check OVT with a software from your pc OR OVT web site. Some of those sites are logging your searches and capture the dn's with score

Well, the most typos occur with letters adjacent to each other on the keyboard. For example, you're more likely to get accidental traffic to www.ilikeponiws.com than to www.ilikeponims.com, since w is right next to the e and m is not. That's where I'd start.

spinlock it's very cleverly. Thanks. is there other tips for it?
can we say most mistypes occurs
sad.com mistypes more possible then wiz.com am i right?

[domainuncle]

well I usually use the moniker delete service that allows one to test for 25 cents. If I get few traffic then I keep it otherwise I delete it.

OVT score
An ovt score of 300 means that the exact same term you checked was searched 300 times on the yahoo network in the given month.

Expectations from an OVT domain
A general expectation is that if a typo has an ovt w/ext 300, you can expect to have around 300 visitors a month, although many times this may not be true at all. You may register a domain with ovt 30 and get 300 uniques amonth and you can reg a domain with 300 ovt and get 30 visits/month. Generally my advice is, register every domain that has ovt over 30 and park it, these type of domains usually pay for themselves.

Typo research
About your question on how to find typos, there is a little magic program called Stypo, you can get it at www.stypo.com(costs $50). What this program does, is check all possible typos of a domain name, give you the overture score and will show you the availability status. I use this program all the time and it reduced my research time 50x.

Where to get the best price for domain names?
There are many registrars out there and you have a big selection. What you have to concider when chosing the right one, is security, reputation, price, customer support(preferably 24 h+telephone) and how easily you can push a domain to a new owner.
Moniker.com is my choice number one. They get 10/10 for all the above criteria. Plus, if you send them an email, telling them that you are a DNFORUM member and convince them that you will buy all your names from there, they will give you special pricing for all domains(example: $6,95 /year for .com and .org, $5.95 for .net ).

Don't waste your money on useless domains. Test them first
As another member already mentioned, moniker.com has a new service which is very cost efficient for the typo business. They will let you test drive the domain name and refund you your fees if you don't want it. More specifically, they will let you test the domain name in a 4 day grace period(tesing in their parking service, Trafficclub) and if you see that you don't get enough traffic, then you just delete it. Moniker will then refund you all your money back, minus a $0.25 process fee.

How to determine if you must keep the domain or not, after having tested it
If the domain name makes more than $0.02 per day on average, it means that in one year it will pay for itself and will bring slight profit. Start buying domain names that make more than that/day. The more you buy, the more yearly revenue you get.

I hope that helped.
