Reason for Sale

Bought this domain a year ago when I read about the nike affiliate program. Google trends shows several people already search for the exact website "nikeshoes.in" so that's free advertisement.
Although I never got the time to invest into it. Selling it for a reasonable price.

Godaddy estimated value : $222

Off topic But, I think you can't actually use this domain. these big name companies gonna send you a legal notice as soon as your website goes live. And even your web hosting provider won't listen to you and delete your website.

You can try your luck. My friend got a domain for his real estate website. Original - Mirvac , domain my friend got - mirvacassets . got a notice in his email from mirvac saying to take down this website or we will take legal action, and next day he got an email from hostinger that his website will be deleted in 3 days.

you'll be Double Dog Damned ! if you use that domain.

that domain is worth Zilch.

that domain is worth Zilch.

Completely agree with you.

Why would they? There is something called INDRP. Nike will file a complaint against you directly with .IN Registry and you'll lose the domain permanently, immediately. To be honest, they should do that.

Dude, the concern is genuine. SEO ratings maybe high but trademark and copyright issues.
Look up Timberland and Woodland legal cases.

I used to work for a company that dealt with premium domains exclusively. Never had such problems.

 

[iPwnz]

That may be an entirely different thing.
I think that your domain would be fine if it says "nikeshoesfans" instead of "nikeshoes."
Anyway good luck.

That's true. Happened so many times in the past but right now, Nike won't waste their time on a domain which has 0 traffic. It's not worth their time. There are thousands of tld available now and they can't simply buy each and every domain which has Nike in domain. It will potentially cost them millions.

They will only target the domains which has good traffic and are popular. And yes, they will not buy the domain from the domain owner as some people are claiming in this topic. Nope, they will simply send a legal notice for misuse of trademark and owner will be force to let it go. Additionally they may ask for compensation for lost revenue based on which type of website you build. Search on Google for examples. There are many.

Domain owner can only keep the domain in one condition, if he registered it before Nike registered the trademark which I highly doubt is the case.

Right now, this domain has 0 value and if you build a website on it, you may lose it in future and all your efforts will go down the drain. I have been in SEO industry for more than a decade and this is my 2 cents.

Fair enough. We used to sell premium domains but we didnt have problems with trademarks and stuff. This could be because the domain we sold to has no connection to big giants. Especially the registration part makes sense. I guess I was very wrong.
