Usiyaro:

How do I know if a registered domain is a trademark?
Go to uspto.gov. Click on 'Links' and select 'TESS.' Click on 'Basic Word Mark
Search (New User)' and enter the name you want to check for trademark.

What I shouldn't do when I spot a trademarked name?
Please don't buy a trademarked name. It's not worth the hassles.

When searching for some domain names I come across some that says "bundle qualified" please what does that mean?
It means GoDaddy wants to sell you a bundle that contains hosting, website optimization, etc. Ignore it and buy domain only.

Please i want to sell this domain fast! Help me find buyer and i will give 15% of the sell price! The domain name is: Tra.Asia
Please ignore the advice to list on Flippa. This domain is worth $0.

Asia is not as cohesive as Europe; if Japan is not fighting China over some island, India and Indonesia will be annexing each others territory. Asians don't see themselves as one and that has hindered the mass adoption of .Asia extension on the continent.

A NLer owns Poetry.Asia, which is way more better than Tra.Asia, and he will have a hard time selling it because of that extension. Even a cohesive Eurozone can not get traction for .euro.

Never buy anything other than .com. Follow what works.

Hello boss... is legit asset dot com a good name?
I also registered petsabode dot com, picsontop dot com, legit assets dot com, 2vkl dot com. What's your advice @oga oladayo042
As a rule of thumb, if you want to buy a two word domain name where the first word is a noun, always buy [Singular Noun+Keyword.com]. No matter how valuable the noun keyword is, plural noun+keyword doesn't seem to do well. CloudHosting.com is better than CloudsHosting.com; HempCity.com is better than HempsCity.com; EventManagement.com is better than EventsManagement.com; and so on. If the noun is coming before the keyword, let the noun be singular.

On the note above, PetsAbode and PicsOnTop are not good enough. The singular, PetAbode would have been a nice name while even PicOnTop is useless. What business will anybody build on PicsOnTop? In fact, you should ask yourself this question before you buy any name.

If we evaluate LegitAsset(s) based on the question above, you'll notice that the options are limited. A site that lists legit assets? A site that sells legit assets? I can see you are using the name for real estate listings, which is most likely not the first thought that comes to peoples' mind when they see the name. Looks like you have a good reason for buying this one.

2vkl is definitely a no-no. Mixing up letters and numbers in order to have a 4C domain name is not a good investment. You can actually find a NLLL dot com where that LLL is a popular three letter English word e.g. 7Gap dot com is currently available and you can see that it is way better than 2VKL dot com. Nonetheless, this does not make it a good buy.

my oga oladayo look at this domain what do you thank about it www.raw00 .com
I am sorry but Raw00 doesn't make the cut of what makes a good domain.

If you want to buy a Keyword+Number domain name, let that number be anything other than zero and let it not be more than a single number. '0' looks very much like 'O', which means there is a chance that people will think it is Rawoo dot com. Also, the number 'zero' generates a negative vibe of nothingness. Zero just means 'nothing' and that's not a good name for any business.

By the way, I own Pot6 and Vapor7 (both in .com).

though everything said here may be based on either one's opinion or from personal experience, your domain name is very promising. what i will advise you is to keep the domain name for at least one year then after sell it. don't rush to sell it, it's a premium in dot asia extension. goodluck

Thank you for pointing me to past sales. I am willing to learn anyday anytime.

I have checked past sales and I saw that some random LLL dot asia domains sold for nice $$$ in the past. I also noticed that most LLL dot asia that sold are being used as a redirect rather than being a standalone website. So why not compose a sales pitch and email all companies in Asian countries that uses 'TRA' as their name? Already, I can see a TRA Co. Ltd Japan, a machinery parts manufacturer.

Please disregard my $0 valuation though I still maintain that Flippa will not move this type of name.

Arbitrage and LegalWealth are two exchangers I can vouch for.

Domain hacks are good if it makes a popular word, preferably a noun or present tense verb. Think Gam.es, Sear.ch, etc. However, I doubt if these type of names will still be available for hand registration.

You people are doing a very wonderful job,please I want to ask if for example there is a .com domain name already owned by someone else and I have the .info extension for that same domain name please can I sell the domain to the owner of the ".com??
Re: Domain Name Business; The Easiest & The Most Profitable Online Venture by mintyx(m): 8:40pm On Apr 05, 2015
Please i need useful to this...

I registered this domain qasa.info sometime last year and its expiring now.

I registered it in mind of this electronics company QASA that make household electronics.

I noticed they are offshoot if Q-link company and still making use of Q-link website and are yet to even buy qasa.com.

Im thinking, based on all these whether i should still go ahead and renew the domain or let it off??

please i need valuable contributions to these..

Maybe. But that's very unlikely. There'd be no reason for that person to acquire your .info extension. Except if the site generates the kindda traffic worth redirecting to his own .com website. .com is king on these streets.
Re: Domain Name Business; The Easiest & The Most Profitable Online Venture by Nobody: 4:52pm On Apr 06, 2015
Fact: You can't register a .no extension, Norway's TLD if you lack a Norwegian postal address and ID card. What led me into digging up this unhelpful info anyway, given how we've always been warned against straying away from .com? Discovered a trend, that the most popular indigenous websites in Norway have a .no extension, so if I was going to create a marketable "Norwegian city+ keyword" domain, it had to be a .no .
