Why BBC would buy this domain? If they want it in first place you will be not owner..
I will build website on this, then later on the road sell it .

B B C can be used for so many things...

If you want to sell it, let me know ...

Best road is to sell it, whether it is BBC or others.

Good answer, my aim is to sell them quickly. I emailed the BBC where Im from in the UK, still waiting to hear from them...

You can profit from my domains if you know anyone looking to buy domains and we can agree a good price, I will offer you 15% commission.

Thank you for your quick reply again.

Horatio

the last thing you want to do is email the BBC!! if they want that domain, they will get it. and they won't pay.

BBC can stand for a lot of things. Do some research, find a niche that you know about and use that domain in the niche. Don't have anything to do with the British Broadcasting Company on that site.

Thanks for reply.

I was considering doing a "Billionaires Boys Club" networking site for billionaires to benefit from special services for annual fee. The problem is Im not sure what service(s) to offer that would be different to other sites and appeal to the end user.

BBC.com is not owned by the BBC so I thought offering BBC.me would not be risky to do - have not heard from them yet.

yeah, bbc.com redirects to bbc.co.uk.

And, re the idea of building a billionaire boys club exclusively for billionaires...

1. How many billionaires are there in the world?
2. How many of them actually surf the web to find a site like bbc.me
3. The fact that they are billionaires and you aren't, I'm sure that the 'special services' you would be providing would be no use to them.

So, if you're lucky, you might end up with one user for that site.

When BBC want the domain, may be a few weeks, may be a few years, their lawyers will contact you.

I have contacted several companies to build a website in the future, so hopefully this will show that I am trying to develop the domain.

1000 billionaires.
Advertise the site to reach target audience.
I don't believe its a prerequisite to be a billionaire in order to provide a service. Many people start companies serving a market they have no natural connection too.

As a case study you should look at: www.europaluxury.com

Thanks for comments.
