      Obviously type-ins are better, at leats now.
      Some ppl are afraid that credit card companies may stop processing porn, or adult content will be allowed in a few years only under .sex, or that the number of type-ins is going down each year.
      But nowadays you obviously get better return on type-ins.
      I wish I had some of them.
      I don't use ICQ anymore.

        typos are lover entrance cost
        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

            Type-in domains are awesome, money rolls right in with whatever you put on the site

                Interesting question. Domains and real estate have many similarities. Domains are the real estate of the internet.

                Owning sex.com is like owning land in Times Square in New York, but owning hotbabes4u.org is the equivalent of owning Florida swampland
                I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
                I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

                  Some recent domains that have sold on Afternic.com:

                  megaballs.com - $5,450

                  Password.net - $20,555

                  megagame.com - $5,000

                  privatebanking.com - $6,610

                  graphic.com - $10,000

                  geam.com - $7,450

                  TiUSA.com - $7,450

                  tits.info - $5,000

                  GenePharm.com - $7,624

                  fucked.com - $17,000

                  Recon.com - $12,000

                  hiusa.com - $17,450

                  enhance.com - $20,000

                  evangelist.com - $9,000

                  ProProject.com - $60,000

                  Not a bad return on your money if you think about the fact that all those domains were once registered for about $30

                      not necessarly. Perhaps someone bought fucked.com 2 years ago for $12k and sold it today for $17k

                        depends on what you got
                        if its a kickass typein it can be a good investment yes
                        but generally real estate and stocks are not wrong

                          Perhaps, but what I said is still true. All those domains that sold for thousands were once upon a time probably registered for about $30. On a percentage basis, those are amazing returns.

                            ProProject tracks employee and contractor time and expenses -- through a web browser -- it features a quick and intuitive setup

                                  I'm far to scared to invest 500K-1000K+ on a domain. I would never ever give that mutch on a domain. And besides, you can use some of your RE to live in, free vacations

                                    Surely you don't really mean 500k to 1000k.

                                      There is a big difference, people will always need places to live, they dont need to look at the internet.

                                        A few years ago type-in domains were great investments, but I'm not so sure if I would invest my money in an expensive type-in domain now.
