What Domain Names Have You Hand Registered Lately?

One of the areas I have slacked a bit this year is on hand registrations. I haven’t really been big on hand registering domain names for quite some time, but I had hoped to spend more time registering domain names this year than in years past.

I received another great suggestion from Todd asking people to share their hand registered domain names, and I thought readers would enjoy sharing. I am really curious to see whether most new hand registered domain names are legacy (like .com, .net, .org…etc) or if people tend to buy more new gTLD domain names.

Here is a list of ten domain names I hand registered during the last several weeks or so:

  • DrivingImprovementSchool.com
  • KeelLaying.com
  • HospiceNursingCare.com
  • FootSalve.com
  • Audrinas.com
  • MadridDining.com
  • BrusselsDining.com
  • Responsolve.com
  • BeekeepingHive.com
  • BobHouses.com

As you can see, all of these hand registered domain name investments are .com domain names. I bought a couple .Link domain names recently, but I don’t consider those to be “investments.”

One thing you can see is that the domain names above are almost all keyword domain names, with the exception of Responsolve.com. I thought that was a neat combination of responsive and solve and I think this is a great brand name.

I invite you to share all domain names you have recently hand registered. Thanks again to Todd for sharing this idea!

  1. I registered LastSecondFlights.com recently and it is a finalist in the Verisign 30th anniversary dot com contest.

    A few other recent regs:

    InterconnectedHome.com
    SmartBrooklyn.com
    SmartPrintables.com
    WellnessDrones.com

    Cheers!

    Asianized.com- Much of the world is becoming this and could make a restaurant or clothing brand.

    SkinnyChicago.com- I figured if SkinnyLA.com won a contest, this one may be okay

    Tel-AvivHotel.com- The dash is actually part of the spelling in many cases.

    Wowgy.com- Just a short brandable with a positive feel…

    CrapsHub.com- Online gambling is getting hotter…

    Yearable.com/Yearables.com- I envision wearables with an annual upgrade twist, so consumers need to keep coming back annually to get the newer and better version.

    PhotoHostingOnline- Getting more popular….

  13. No handregs of late but thus far in 2015 I have sold several domains which were either handregs or $XX backorders. One of those handreg sales was among a group of domains that I handregged as a newbie back in late 2005. However, most of my hand registrations which convert into sales generally end up only selling low to mid $XXX.

    Nearly all of my other recent hand regs are in my local ccTLD (.com.au), so I won’t list those here!

  22. Doesn’t this whole thread just prove that there never really was a shortage of good dot coms that a business could pick up for a few dollars, and that launching hundreds of new extensions wasn’t really necessary?
