Crime-based games, TV shows, and movies have a rich history that dates back to The Public Enemy and Little Caesar in the 1930’s, The Godfather trilogy in the ’70s, Goodfellas and Pulp Fiction in the ’90s, and all the way up to more recent works including Grand Theft Auto, Mafia Wars, The Sopranos, American Gangster, and The Departed.
And now there’s a killer domain for sale that encapsulates it all: Gangsters.com.
The domain name was listed for auction on eBay earlier today and bidding will be open until September 21 at 10am PDT. In this short report, I’m going to discuss Gangsters.com and the value it could add to your business or domain portfolio.
Description
Gangsters.com could be used for a music label, a TV series, a book series, or even an eCommerce site for mafia and gangster related products. However, it seems the domain would reach its maximum potential as a hub for a popular massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) created similar to Mafia Wars or World of Warcraft.
Millions of people around the world currently play MMORPGs with worldwide revenues exceeding $1.5 billion.
