I've been out of the domain game for so long that I can't even remember what domain I sold last.
Back when I was active, I had a bunch of typo domains, especially for regionally popular websites. They never bought in way too much money, but earned enough in parking to pay for their registration fee, and then some.
Think of names like wwwsbi.in (typo of SBI.in, which itself is a typo of SBI.co.in - India's largest bank)
What's the state of such names now? I know that for a lot of people, especially in the developing world, apps have replaced domains as the first point of interaction.
Given this change, are typo domains still bringing in the traffic? What are the legal issues surrounding them?
