    Martin Luther King Jr. - MLKJ.com

    Anyone interested in giving me feedback on this domain name? I though it would be good to sell MLKJ posters, books, etc and also contain informational links.

    If you have to spell out what MLKJ.com stands for, it stands to reason that the domain is worth less than you thought it was...

    Thumbs up

    I think its cool. It's great shorthand for that topic. You should develop it, and look to partner with someone. You should also scope out if there is a definitive source for this already.

    In order to build up the traffic and attention you'd need, I think you'd have to REALLY compile a large body of interesting content as well (bios, quotes, photos, posters, books).

    It's a good domain, but it sounds like work for some party that is passionate about the topic, and it doesn't sound like a huge money maker though (even for break even). Might be a good way to attract attention for upsells though.

    Again, extremely good shortcut... but "to what?" is the bigger question. In terms of free content, posters, etc... I would have to wonder if you'd be better off taking a slight detour and making it about the broader concept of the civil rights movement (with King as a segue).

    Best of luck,

    No doubt given/sold to The King Center (thekingcenter.org).

    Out of all of them MLKJ.com is LEAGUES easier to type. "MartinLutherKingJr.com" is a horror show of a type-in.

    You had better check with the King family/foundation before
    considering any enterprise. They hold the rights to Dr. King's
    legacy and might frown on profiteers. Be careful.

    MLK is better than MLKj or MLKjr is but have you cleared intellectual property issues first?
