Here's a coveted 1 word .com domain name. This domain could be used for a variety of websites. When I hear misconception.com, I see a sight debunking urban myths, the web's answer to TV's Mythbusters. Another possible use for the site could be as a consumer advocacy resource. Post little known facts about the fine print in credit card agreements or mysterious fees that appear on your cell phone bill. The winner of this domain has many options at his or her disposal.
This is a no
reserve auction and bidding starts at $1. If your pre-bid is over $100 and it wins the auction, you will get a 2% cashback bonus. You may place your pre-bid now to instantly get in on the action.
Good luck, and happy bidding!

This is a very strong name with plenty of possibilities. I love that Penn and Teller show on Showtime... you know the one with the Bull and the .. uh.. stuff, and I'm a big Mythbusters fan, too. Just a quick read through all the misconceptions on the wikipedia page shows you can really fill the site with lots of content.

Yes, the plural version would be a nice to have here as it actually gets higher search volume than the singular, but I don't think it hurts this name too much. I really think you can brand and market this name quite well. A great source for traffic will be places like digg that eat up content like this.
This will likely go for well below the estibot value of $19,000. I think we may very well see a low 4 figure sale on this one, though. Another great opportunity here on Bido. collapse

I invest in Domains for a living. I buy, sell, develop and offer a range of services, primarily to my clients, whose domains I represent and broker. Personally I have a portfolio over 2,000 domain names I have been purchasing since 1998. However, I know run a domain marketplace and online media company, http://www.MediaOptions.com">www.MediaOptions.com. We are a new Full Service Media Company that incorporates my portfolio as well as other clients. Since our new launch we are actively looking for new domains and members to list on our site.
We are exclusively marketing domains like: Laid.com, ValueChain.com, HX.com, Sushi.me, Gamble.com.pa, Fly.com.pa, Law.com.pa, Gamble.asia and many other one word .com's. In addition to marketing some exclusive and premium domain names and offering tremendous bargains through our Domain Deals Newsletter (http://www.mediaoptions.com/form/view.php?id=3&email=%20your%20email">http://www.mediaoptions.com/form/view.php?id=3&email=%20your%20email) We will be monetizing through direct ad sales within several vertical portals. We will also be offering very affordable, but top quality graphic design services and Copywriting services.
We have just launched a new type of Web Development Platform, geared at Domainers and small businesses. These sites have almost no cost up front and very low monthly maintenance fee. We basically hand you the business model and website and you run it and monetize it. We can have a custom site up for you in 2 weeks (see example: http://www.CascoViejo.org). Media Options Inc is also bringing a much needed service to the industry of direct domain sales to end users, "Main Street" businesses and organizations! Not just through mass emails...but by humping the phones and talking to decision makers in order to educate them on the value of generic domain names to their organization. This strategy has been tried and true for my own domains and now it's time to help other domainers.

I am surprised that Estibot gives this one $19,000 as a selling price. I am afraid to say I think that is a "misconception". But nonetheless, the figure could be used to try to "flip" it for more money. In the real, domaining world of Bido, I would say that up to $500 would be a good price for the buyer and up to $1000 would be a fairish price. Above that is an enduser price, in my view. collapse

This simply ticks (nearly) every box:
1)It's a 1 word dictionary 2)It's a .Com 3)Has a reasonable amount of keyword searches 4)It's relatively easy to spell 5)All other extensions (bar US) are taken
As for development, well, it's a great niche that has almost unlimited "sub Niches" to develop into.
The only minor blemish on this (or should I say misconception) is that it's not the plural Misconception(s), which is uniquely stronger.
Estibot's valuation of 19k looks a bit distant in the current climate, however this name is not about now, it's about a solid (affordable) investment opportunity that doesn’t come around every day.
Overall a great name and as for price, I’d expect around 2-3k minimum here on Bido.

What can I say, this domain name practically describes the story of my life. I feel this domain name could definitely be a great brand builder. For me developing the domain itself would be a little far fetched, but using it as a forwarding domain or a marketing based domain which feeds into another site would make perfect sense. Because the domain is a dictionary word I can definitely see it bringing in some healthy bids here on bido. I won't guess the price it will go for as you never know who might be interested in such a name!

It didn't take long for me to realize there was much money to be made in a virtually untapped market (the web). I focus on high quality acquisitions and development rather than flipping domains. However, I do occasionally sell premium domains to fund larger acquisitions. collapse

It is a single dictionary word .com, so it has that going for it. Commerce opportunities are a stretch for this this one. Negative words are much harder for a company to brand with so I am not sure it works great in terms of a brandable. There are some academic type of applications this could work for but again would need development.
I am sure there are folks who can get a better handle on what to do with this one to maximize it's potential, but I peg this at a mid $XXX at best. Good Luck and hope you prove me wrong!

Great dictionary .com here. Estibot says the name is worth 19k. Great generic dictionary .coms are a solid investment. My advise is to buy names like this now in this economy. This could be a real bargain for someone here. Google's keyword tool says there are 49,500 monthly searches for "misconception". Gone in every extension except .us. My guess it sells here for 2-3 thousand.

This is a great name that could be turned into all kinds of sites. I'll leave exactly what to the others to guess. In short it is a dictionary word that everyone knows the meaning as well as a word that is pretty easy to spell. Unlike the word "embarrassing" that I can never remember how many "s" or "r"s there are, this one is probably won't leak users to the typos. This may be my first buy here on bido but hopefully for the seller it may get out of my price range
