Hi all. My wife spit out a domain name earlier (example.com), it was 'goldmine' if available. So I searched for availability on GoDaddy, it showed as available for $11.99yr.
I got excited, and went to but it, but it wouldn't let me proceed to cart; "No Domain Selected" window popped up. I refreshed, checked my spelling, retyped the name....example.com is already taken...WTF!
So, I looked it up in WHOIS....no real contact info (private?)
Then I went directly to site...it looks parked, and has a "similar search results window" that appears. At the bottom it states;
"This domain may be for sale" Buy Now
I sent an offer, but was wondering, is there anything else I can do to obtain/purchase this domain?
So sad...killer keywords for my niche, and it's sitting stagnent!!! A similar domain with the same "2 keywords reversed" is for sale for $2188.00, and personally this one doesn't seem as good.
I probably wouldn't go any higher than $250 either way, and started my offer at $50. But was wondering; is there anything else I can do?
