The Ultimate Domaining Resource

These good domains are currently in pre-release.
I was just looking through some “old” domains currently available for pre-release backordering at NameJet. Here are some worth backordering. I haven’t checked any of these domains for trademarks, though. You should carefully consider trademark issues before buying any domain.
Squiggles.com – registered 14 years ago and every other major TLD is registered. A great brandable name. There are a few products with this name, though, so don’t park it if you win it.
DGMS.com – a nice acronym domain registered since 1994. As with any acronym, be careful about parking.
BrainTech.com – great brandable.
LocalFocus.com – perfect for today’s “focus” on local.
NetSol.net – you shouldn’t register this one. Network Solutions should. And since it’s registered at Network Solutions currently…
WashingtonGolf.com – great state golf domain
HSDG.com – good acronym and has a DMOZ listing
LeasedLabor.com – short term labor market and/or contract gig domain (hint: LeaseLabor.com is currently available for registration)
CherryhillNJ.com – townships’ official site is Cherryhill-NJ.com
HealthTek.com – nice brandable. Double check trademarks.
MemoryEtc.com – good domain for burgeoning memory training market
CreativeOnline.com – remember, “online” is the most common keyword sold in GoDaddy’s marketplace
TennisWeek.com – start an online pub about Tennis
NetAsset.com – financial or web services domain
InnovativeCuisine.com – perfect for foodies
FiveStarFood.com – another good foodie domain
CanineCuisine.com – for all the k-9 foodies
MegaSites.com – forget mini sites. Start a service offering mega sites.
LandscapeCompany.com – name says it all
FloridaLighting.com – ditto
VancouverHouses.com – I like homes better, but still a good one in a hot real estate market
BumperBowling.com – own the market
CommerceCenter.com – many uses
WallVisions.com – good for art or projection services
YourHospital.com – perfect for medical services directory, social network, or patient services site

A smart domain registration — from $10 to at least $1,000 in two weeks.
ICANN plans to use “digital archery” to determine in which batch new top level domain applications are included.
One savvy domainer seized on the opportunity and registered DigitalArchery.com on March 31.
Just another sucker hand registering a domain that will never sell?
Hardly.
DigitalArchery.com has a $1,000 bid at Sedo. The auction closes tomorrow.
A 100x return in just two weeks sounds pretty good.
The seller’s listing reads:
“Digital Archery is the evolution of gaming/lottery on the Internet. The beginning of a craze that will sweep the web. The revolution of “skilled lottery” starts here. Digital Archery.”
Who would pay $1,000 for a such a domain? One candidate is Pool.com, which recently announced a digital archery service for the new TLD launch.
It charges $25,000 if it manages to get you into the top batch and $10,000 if it gets you into the top 50% of batches. So spending $1,000 to potentially snag a few extra customers would be well worth it.
