Anyone have any idea what this one might be worth?

I managed to get it a while back at auction just after the .so extension became available. I guess it has good branding potential with a "fat? - so what?" type site or could be used to ridicule the overweight!
 
Sorry, but .so is a horrible TLD for domaining purposes. It's very possible that there have been more sales in .tel than .so... to give you an idea.
I don't think many Somalians even have any interest in it.
 
Ahhhhh.so yes, this-is.so don't you .know.know.know.... :D

<exit, stage left....../>
 
There's a slim chance it might be worth a few pounds. ;)

Quality reply :cool:

Sounds nice this domain but it's too offensive :(

Maybe put a spin on it and use it as a bookmarking site " that site is fat " as in it's a big site which is good 8)
 
Thing is I can't keep up with what's 'PC' anymore!

Is it 'fat', 'obese', 'overweight', 'porker', 'fatty', 'morbidly obese', 'clinically obese', 'super morbidly obese', 'extremely fat', 'chunky', 'carrying a little too much girth' (ooooerrrr Mr Grimsdale!) or what?! LOL. :)
 
It's a good comical domain (made me laugh) - it has its angles. (and it has a reasonable double take, As in Not so negative)

definately worth holding on to
 
Thanks for all the replies. Some of them made me chuckle :)
Definitely going to hang on to it but ideally want to offload it at some point. Have a feeling I paid a little too much for it at auction...
 
I like the domain and offered to buy it from you before however like others said its sadly not worth that much.
 
Perhaps i'm just completely lacking in the creativity department but I can't see any easy way to turn this into a revenue earning site worth bothering with. The only concept I can see is the ridicule the fat man angle but not sure if that would work out. Having said that in the sick world we live in, you probably could attract a load of likes/followers on fb that you could post photos of obese people to and they would share the photos for the world to laugh at. Very poor form though and unless you are really desperate to put food on your family's plates, there must be less sadistic ways to make money online (not saying you would persue this avenue, but if you did).

Good luck to you though, no matter what you decide to do with it.
 
I like this one, pretty brandable i would say,

Major drawback is not very many folk out there in the general public have heard of the .so extension.

Develop into a diet and health site maybe or a fetish site lol!
 
Yeah adult fetish or dating was the idea I had for it however like you said .so is not very well known so big marketing spend would be required. However great brand able name.

Also not sure how .SO would rank in UK/USA index.

How much did you pay for it?
 
Fat.so <<<<h<<======= luv it. Great marketing angle, loads of people out there who actually prefer the honest route, self depreciating route or how did the 'Such and Such for Dummies/Idiots' books take off.

Brilliant.... £x,xxx at the very least.

so sales are rare there’s a reason for that…. Civil war etc
Yanks used buy these type hoping to sell as a “brand” but market reality has seen many a dream tumble..? I’d say slim chance of finding anyone who’s going to create a brand around it… ridicule site where’s the money in that ? You do only need someone else that wants to buy for a sale good luck in finding them ?
