Default domain name

Im getting alot of offers at the moment for my domain - considering the superannuation overhaul that is coming, what do you think it could be worth?

i think it all depends on whether these super changes are all adopted and whether the govt calls its no frills super by that name. I also picked up mysuperonline.com.au the other day. By the way i noticed somebody applied for the trademark mysuper to try to cash in as well.

yes, i saw the trademark as well - that will be interesting.
I have had the domain for about 4 years now, but its only recently that I have been having some crazy offers so I did some research to find out why and that is when I read about all the super changes.

time will tell...

A question :
If you have owned the domain for a period of time.
Can someone register a trademark and take it off you ??

Im not saying they can, i'm curious for the answer..

if you had the domain name registered prior to the trademark registration you are almost always ok unless they can prove very very extensive use of the term and prove that you were probably aware of their common law rights and registered the domain name to profit at their expense.

Considering the government is now running prime time television advertsing for MySuper, I think this domain name is worth $100,000
I have no idea how you sell a domain to a federal government department though
Maybe you need to employ a lobby firm in Canberra
Now is defintely the time to sell it before they start using some RS URL

Default In this case you would have to say a .com.au is

worth a lot more than the mysuper.org

Does anyone have any thoughts on the .com.au being worth a lot more??

Interesting topic?
