Hi James,
Without looking at longtail possibilities, I would say no value. Even at #1 position these domains don't have enough search volume, remember Google allows 3 spots above the fold, they will take 80% of the search term traffic.

Google has been trialing 4 sponsored listings in UK which will make it even worse for the natural listings if it comes to Australia.

Making it hard for low volume search terms to make ROI.

Yeah 5 of these I want to get rid of 5 I want to keep. I think .net.au is a bit of a gamble but I have seen it pay off with some other names. I also agree with the comments about paid taking up all the real-estate, it's a real joke.

Thanks for the honest feedback but, I know these are Not the best names :)

Hi James,
We have all registered domains that after looking at afterwards, think what was I thinking.

I reckon, I've let drop and wasted $20k on domains over the years, although I've made more than that on others.

My main focus is on search volume now, very picky and wiser as well.

Yeah I know all too well, I have registered some junk which has sold for 10,000 in the past just because it has been developed into working sites by mistake.

The domains int he original post are not that crash hot but imo I think some .net.au are worth the risk, people are quick to shut them down.

Recent pick ups such as:

http://frenchwine.net.au
http://lifeinsurancecover.net.au
http://superannuationcomparison.net.au/

First two have made ROI in 1 month, so the rest is profit - time spent, imo worth the reg.
