docto.rs , ca.rs

can i have some feedback on these type of domains, is there any value in them ?

You do see the occasional hack name sold for a decent amount , but it is not the norm, i do think around some domain circles ca.rs would be considered a ripper

I have had worldne.ws for a few years now (forgotten website) that used to be page one for google "unusual news" search , have not looked for a while , i do see hack names at bido.com sometimes

They are fine names but only a minority will see any value ...........develop is the answer

 

[Drop.com.au]

Interesting as a novelty registration but I wouldn't place any great value on domain hacks. There a lot of potential for traffic bleed to the .com.

del.icio.us ended up having to use delicious.com... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delicious_(website).

I've noticed youtube using youtu.be in their short url links.

It makes sense for shortened URL's where you will only ever be clicking on a link but not for the main site

I've got a few - vouche.rs, acto.rs, usedca.rs - i think about 10 all up. But I just bought them cos they look cool and I've used Vouche.rs as a shortner for social media haha.

I get a few offers on them from time to time, normally mid $xxx - $x,xxx.
