A little perspective from an experienced domainer...
I purchased charge.ca a few weeks back and had a single vision of selling it to a payment processor of credit cards or something in the financial scope of things. I never for a second considered there could be another purpose for this domain.
Well this morning a member here posted QuickCharge(dot)ca for sale and it opened my eyes. Hey, I own charge.ca, omg I can use my domain for that, I have a whole different selling angle to pursue now.
I cannot believe how tight my blinders were fitting until I saw the for sale ad on the forum. It goes to show even experienced domainers have a lot to learn and we can never underestimate what an end user could actually be using the domain for. It could be something completely different from what we think it will be used for and no amount of research can bullet proof us from that.
I just found the situation both interesting and eye opening, pardon the pun because the blinders have been removed. :|
