It's my only "typo" name that I own. It did show 23 ovt last year up until about September when OVT quit showing figures for typos...

Name is at Godaddy, and will drop sometime in September (if I let it)
 
drop
 
keep..........



















oooops, I mean DROP :-D
 
does it get any traffic?
 
Sign up for a pay per click service and check every single one of your domains. Then let the bottom line decide if your name is worth holding or not. If you don't want to sign up, then I can let you point it to my account and I will give you the stats. Basically, if one of my names generate revenue > 125% of the annual reg fee, then I keep it. In most cases, you need to watch a name for at least a month to know what its potential is. Although my focus is on domains for resale, getting some steady income from traffic domains is just fine. Around 5% of my portfolio are typos which I keep just for the revenue.
 
HiOSilver idea sound like the best option for you. All it is going to cost you is $ 7. And, you might make $10 from it, maybe.

And, if you do. You will have a 50% return on your investment.

You might also learn that typo's also make money. (Eventhough, I only own 1 out of 3,000 ++ names.)
 
Put it on auction here on DNF if you are planning to let it drop.

Most likely someone like me will buy it for a few bucks. Better than nothing you get from an expired name.
 
I'll give you $1 for the domain, and see how it does on typins for the next month. If I decide to renew it, you can have your choice of $10 or half the profits from the domain for as long as I keep it. (I'll show you the stats)

Thanks,

Affordable hosting,

I dont understand what the sense in your offer is?

Hes going to jump @ the idea of making a $1?

Well, everyone's been saying drop... If he drops it, he makes $0. If he sells it to me, he could make $1 or $11.

Pick a price and offer Chiccago.com in domains for sale. If you can do something like offer a free/low-cost trial or money-back guarantee (since you can't show any typin statistics), it will sell easily. That's what I'm getting at.

This may not work with domains totally flawlessly- it's just that I've sold so many things using free trials and money-back guarantees that I'm kind of biased. :-)
 
drop, nobody has such bad mispelling unless they are totally drunk, and you don't want drunk drivers on your site believe me :)
 
Isn't it supposed to get very c-c-cold in Chic-c-cago...? :)

Oh, that's right... No hyphens...
