    TM issues?

    I've just registered a couple of domains I found that recently became available:

    dubaru.com
    dazani.com

    I'm assuming both will be decent typos and I'll see how the next 30-60 days pan out.

    My question is is there much to worry about from a TM infringment standpoint? The dubaru one in particular is a typo on a very high-ranked alexa domain so I'm guessing that someone might take notice.

    In general I don't think these names will have any TM infringment issues. Having said that, it's how you use these names will determine whether they can land you in trouble or not.

    dubaru.com should land you in no more trouble than altvaista.com myspacr.com amzzon.com etc

    Maybe a bit less as the company is probably less tuned in to the internet.

    Re: TM issues?

    Why do you think that they recently became available? Maybe someone had them before and they were not getting enough traffic?

    What does one have to do with the other?

    Re: TM issues?

    I was thinking that maybe someone registered them and they let them expire on purpose because they did not make enough money to cover the registration fee.

    "Another point to consider is that low traffic names can still be profitable. You only have to earn 2 cents a day from a domain to cover your annual renewal fee." This is a good quote from NameNewbie.com.

    Many parked names earn zero cents a day.

    Basically, if no humans are typing in those domain names into their address bar, and those domains are not indexed by search engines, then only a few non-humans will be visiting those domain names.
