Your Ship's Coming In at Punta Colonet, Mexico

The global economic downturn seems to have bottomed out, and Mexico’s government is re-committing to construction of their $5 billion mega-port in what is currently the sleepy fishing village of Punta Colonet on the Pacific Coast. The executive coordinator of the project, Jose Rubio, said today that the development plan remains in force; changes in the the bidding process will soon be announced by the Ministry of Communications and Transport (SCT) .

We’ve talked about this project before, and emphasized that an entire city is about to emerge from nothing. That means an explosion of domain opportunities, including but not at all limited to these:

PuntaColonetYellowPages.com, PuntaColonetInfo.com, PortColonetBay.com, VisitPuntaColonet.com, MegapuertoDePuntaColonet.com, PuntaColonetDentist.com, PuntaColonetLawyer.com, PuntaColonetHomes.com, PuntaColonetRestaurants.com, PuntaColonetLodgings.com, PuntaColonetRentalCars.com, PuntaColonetProperty.com, PuntaColonetFreight.com, PuntaColonetTrucking.com, PuntaColonetFreightForwarding.com and PuntaColonetJobs.com.

Domain Income Is Blowing in the Wind

The wind blowing across your roof and backyard is worth money. A new 30% U.S. tax credit combined with state and local tax incentives makes backyard windmills (BackyardWindEnergy.com) very attractive. You can keep the planet green while you put green in you pocket.

Some 10,000 small windmills or wind turbines were sold in the U.S. last year, but the American Wind Energy Association predicts the number will increase 30-fold in just five years. Clearly, turbine marketers and installers are going to boom.

Also booming is the market for domains, or Internet addresses, associated with wind energy. Memorable, descriptive domains attract customers. Take SitingWindTurbines.com and SitingWindmills.com, for instance. Or consider the value of DoItYourselfWindmills.com and ProfitFromWind.com for the makers of kits.

Wind turbine marketers can find plenty of customers with InTheWindEnergy.com, WindTurbines411.com, and OffTheGridEnergy.com (which also has value to solar equipment dealers).

Financing wind or solar is always an issue. Those matters can be dealt with through InvestingInWindPower.com, FinancingWindTurbines.com and CleanTechTaxCredits.com.

There’s actually a toll-free 800-number available that can be readily marketed via the domain 1800AltFuel.com.

The AWEA estimates that a whopping 13 million U.S. homes could benefit from small windmills, ranging in height from 30-140 feet. Professional installation is usually required, especially since they require safe electrical hook-ups to the home and the electrical grid. Installers can use domains like AAAWindEnergy.com, AAAWwindTurbines.com and InTheWindPower.com.

Oh, and for lawyers and those opposed to having wind turbines going up in their areas, take a look at WindTurbineInjuries.com, WindTurbineSuits.com and SuingWindTurbines.com.
Wind energy (ResponsibleFuel.com) is a reality today, and it’s making a lot of people rich. To cash in on this new field, consider buying the domains mentioned above. Each can be purchased at its dot-com address.

You can now buy a home wind turbine and get lots of helpful literature on the subject at backyardwindturbine.com.

Place Your Domain Bets on Haley Barbour

Iit’s a whole new ballgame in the race for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination.

Two frontrunners, Senator John Ensign and Governor Mark Sanford, just killed their chances by admitting to having affairs. Ensign was the 4th highest ranking Republican in the Senate. Sanford was chairman of the national Republican governors’ association.

In the fast-narrowing field of candidates, it suddenly looks like Mississippi governor and long-time leading Republican strategist Haley Barbour may be the party’s #1 prospect for the presidency. That makes domains like BarbourForPresident 2012.com, HaleyBarbourForPresident2012.com and others in that vein potentially valuable. Pick your 2012 candidates and lock up some good domains today!

Matrixx Class Action Reloaded

Matrixx, the maker of the popular cold fighter Zicam, has just announced it's pulling its products from store shelves, following a warning from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that Zicam has been linked to 130 cases of consumers losing their sense of smell. The company was sued in 2006 over the same issue; it settled more than 300 lawsuits at that time for $millions. Here we go again.

Let the class action lawsuits begin! And not just for the 1,000's of consumers who will claim loss of their ability to smell, but also for 1,000's of investors who have watched their stock (MTXX) plummet from $20 to $6 (Ouch!).

I grabbed matrixxclassaction.com and expect to sell it quickly to one of the many law firms looking to profit by attracting consumers and investors looking sue the company.

Medical Domains Mean Quick Profits

Breaking medical/health news is always a prime hunting ground for valuable domain ideas. Just yesterday, two medical research stories proved the point.

The global media went nuts over a dermatology journal report on fluorouracil cream, a chemotherapy agent that researchers now say is an effective anti-aging wrinkle-remover. Given the enormous size of the anti-aging market, any domain incorporating the word "fluorouracil" is pretty much guaranteed to have value. I bought fluorouracilcream.com for $7, registered it with SEDO, and got a $400 offer 2 hours later. I chose to put the domain into SEDO's 7-day auction with a reserve of $400. That means if no one bids higher, the original offer of $400 will be accepted -- a nice one-week return on investment. [The SEDO auction closed on June 22, with a second bidder coming in with one minute to spare, and closing out the sale at $410... netting me $369 on the sale.]

A second medical story popped up yesterday, offering more domaineering opportunities. A new study shows that red yeast rice capsules lower the risk of heart attack and are an effective substitute for statins, expensive drugs used to lower cholesterol and fight off heart attacks. Since statins are among the most heavily prescribed drugs, domains tied to "red yeast rice" are surefire winners. I grabbed redyeastricepill.com, but there are lots more combinations available.
