There are always 50,000 other domains dropping tomorrow…

I managed to register LivestockJobs.com. Wow! Ok, ok. Well, what did  you expect? Really not a bad name if you think about it: the uber generic and prized “jobs” plus the single-word “livestock“. Together, they make a great niche combination, no?

When people are searching for employment, what do they type in the Google search box?

Google Searches:

  • “job/s” 140,600,000
  • “employment” 37,200,000
  • “work” 20,400,000
  • “career/s” 12,480,000
  • “positions” 3,350,000
  • “opportunities” 3,350,000
  • “classifieds” 2,240,000

  • “employers” 673,000
  • “vacancie/s” 402,000
  • “headhunters” 301,000

Clearly, “jobs” is superior, not just for search but for domain length as well. Now, we take these words and see what are the top specific job searches:

Niche Jobs Google Searches

  • “sales jobs” 2,240,000
  • “marketing jobs” 1,220,000
  • “medical jobs” 1,220,000

  • “accounting jobs” 673,000
  • “nursing jobs” 673,000
  • “warehouse jobs” 673,000
  • “construction jobs” 550,000

Every top specific job search is combined with “job“. Bingo, that’s the best term. Now what about “livestock“.

Top Google Searches for “Livestock”

  • “livestock”    550000
  • “livestock auction/s”    50400
  • “livestock market/s”    20200

  • “farm livestock”    3600
  • “livestock breeds”    3600
  • “livestock prices”    3600
  • “livestock report”    2900

I don’t know about YOU , but all that Livestock smells like JOBS to me! Now the obvious part:

  • “cattle jobs” 4,400 search with ZERO advertiser competition
  • “livestock jobs” 1,900 with advertiser competition

With CattleJobs.com parked at Fabulous, I feel pretty good about scoring LivestockJobs.com. BTW, a lot of this “livestock” thing is going on in Texas… time to Geo-Target!

I’m really happy about the two names I caught today: GreatInternships.com and MobileSuccess.com. I’m pitching MobileSuccess.com as a site for advertisers looking to get into the mobile market or ad agencies looking for a brand. GreatInterships.com speaks for itself for possibly job boards, career advice, etc… :)
