How To Find Type-in Domains?

#1 Find a popular domain and make a list of miss spelled names by reversing letters, replacing phonetically similar letters, double letters, etc.

#2 Search Google for each miss spelled word, finding the popularity of that word.

#3 Use the Overture keyword suggestion tool to find if the miss spelled words have been commonly used in search phrases.

#4 Divide the Overture number by the Google number, and find the popularity of the miss spelled word versus the competitiveness of the word.

#5 Take this number and multiply it times the estimated traffic received on the original properly spelled domain calculated from the web sites Alexa ranking, and you can even make a pretty good guess as to how much traffic the miss spelled name would generate.

#6 Finally, add a '.com' on to the end and the domain and check for availability and presto, you have a list of miss spelled domains complete with a ranking of how well they might do.

This technique has netted dozens of great names over the years.
