When I am searching for domains, I am on the hunt for something that I have an interest in as an end-user myself. Of the hundreds of domain names that piqued my interest, here are two that I lost; why I liked them; what they sold for; and what they are now.
WildLime.com - I was always drawn to keyword+color or color+keyword. Though, this one fell perfectly into being an adjective (wild) and noun (lime). It had everything going for it. I placed my bid and it eventually sold for $478. It's now a fashion e-commerce site.
Standup.tv - I don't particularly like ccTLDs, but I will lean towards a purchase if it's of this caliber. Many people like standup comedy and this would be the perfect name to put that in front of them, first starting as handpicked comedy and perhaps drifting towards private shows with paywalls. It sold for $827 and is now a lander for the OOOOO e-commerce app.
The remaining are still in domain name investor's hands with parking landers. I'll add to this list when they change hands.
What domain auctions have you participated in and where did the domains end up?
