Just picked up another mortgage themed .NET domain for $450 off SnapNames!
The domain is long and lacks “brandable” value, but it IS a Keyword Matched domain, and I intend to develop it to get all the SEO boost out of the domain as possible.
I expect it will be rather painless to make back the $450 investment on this domain.

Today I was trying to goto BoingBoing to kill some time, and I typed in boingboing.COM and oops, I got a parking page. (I didn’t realize that BoingBoing is actually boingboing.NET)
But this was no ordinary parking page… This crappy-ass Network Solutions parking page had a PageRank 5! How often do you see THAT?
So I fired up my SEO back-links tool to see where the PR was coming from.
Wow! This domain was getting some killer link juice from really powerful sites, simply because they mistakenly linked to the .COM TLD instead of the .NET
And that’s not all. I fired up Compete to check out the traffic to boingboing.COM and wow, this dude gets massive traffic!
My question is… Can the rightful boingboing.NET trademark their brand and file a complaint with WIPO to get their domain back?
