    Re: Observe the Snapnames Auction!

    Personally love the domain, think they stole it for that price. seen many LLL (YAWN) .com's going for 7-12 on here
    this is special & they got a cheap deal. hope they develop. what an amazing website for a stargazing website, astronomy etc (theres way too many dating sites already & they're gonna crack down on them soon like gambling) in the states anyway. the land of the free! LOL
    do the site like the inside of the Greenwich Observatory or something.
    Wish i'd bid now. (oh yeah forgot...i'm too tight!) LOL

    The only problem with astronomy, or star watching sites, is that they don't make any money and the traffic will take forever to build up, even with another $50k in advertising thrown at it.

    Development wise, best bet is to develop enterprise level surveillance software which is always hot. Of course, that would require a lot of money. That's what I would do with it at least, but I could do that with Observe365.com as well which is available for registration.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Re: Observe the Snapnames Auction!

    i would imagine this gets natural traffic without needing to advertise though.
    that's the point of paying initially higher fees for a premium .com
    observe365 you would have zero traffic.
    of course webcam thing etc could be done or whatever. it could have different sections. astronomy page, webcams etc. adsense alone would rack up . beauty of people just sitting there watching things is, itchy fingers will click. there is nothing i can see of this quality out there for what was paid for it. i hope the bloke doesn't pay or something ( card refused) as i wouldn't mind another pop at it.

    Re: Observe the Snapnames Auction!

    ^ It won't be targeted traffic because it is not 'securitycameras.com'. "Observe.com" is a vanity name. Very brandable but I agree that you would need to throw 50k at it to develop/advertise.

    Predator, it gets <100 unique visitors per day. So unless you're measuring in light years, it'll take a while before the natural traffic builds up.
