So I bought newsppr.com some time ago and thought, now that the newspaper industry is going out of business maybe I can do something...

Only problem is I don't know what to do with newsppr.com

Any ideas? I don't want to sell it since it's an awesome name! (Unless I get a good offer )

1. Park it
2. If there is web site - add some ads (PPC) to earn
3. Sell it (sedo.co.uk, parked.com, ebuy)

I would sell it, but I don't know how much the name would be worth...

I was thinking more along the lines of actually developing something.

I can imagine the telephone conversation in telling some one how to fond the website


"and your website is"?

well, it's "www" dot "n" "e" "w" "s" "p" "p" "r" dot "com"

It's sort of like "newspaper" without the "a" and the "e" in "paper".

Dropping ONE vowel as a brandable "gimmick" can work in some cases, dropping two could be a step too far though. Even though the human brain can compensate for missing letters (vowels especially) in commom words, being "too cute" can easily backfire on you.

I wouldn't take that as a common thing, the vast majority of the browsing world wouldn't know what a "googol" was or the spelling of it to make that kind of error.

How good this domain name ill be depends on the way you will develop it.
I suppose in a year if you try hard this domain name or project will have another value

I could always make the &quot;ppr&quot; stand for something so that it being similar to &quot;paper&quot; is just an added bonus. I guess I just found my new years resolution... i'll develop this and be back here in exactly 1 year to tell you guys how it went

I have begun development... http://newsppr.com

I decided to try and tackle realtime news and I'll start this journey with financial data.

Any ideas on how I can earn some revenue? Google adsense perhaps?

It's alive!!!! Check it out! This image updates on its own. I can apply this same method to stocks, indices, etc., but any ideas on how I can get some revenue off of it?

ONLY if you have the promotional skill and budget to make it "huge".
It won't happen by magic.

Good Luck!

Maybe you could use it to develop a job board for out of work newspaper workers.
