Registered 90,000 exact local searches domain - how to monetize it?

Registered trademark in domain name can be trouble.
Be very careful.

Sounds like trouble if you ask me. You might be better off just selling it.

Yes, I agree that trademark may be a trouble. But the positive side is I am from India so not sure how easy it would be for them to file the lawsuit against me and do all that legal stuff etc.

who you going to sell the site to?

So you're going to pass the trademark infringement problem to somebody else then? Do you not have any scruples at all?

What if I tell them the consequences in advance? People are much smarter than you really think and they think ten times before making any decisions.

I think we have just been going GAGA over this trademark stuff and saying that this is awful like I have really robbed someone poor in the need.

I agree this trademark is prominent and will get noticed but people use trademarks in their domain all the time, may be big or small - look around for tons of amazon review sites.

I have seen extremely reputed marketers here saying that you may use trademarks in the domain names but of course there is a risk involved and everyone understands that.

Don't believe me - then PM me and I will tell you one of the name and the name of the course and will send you the videos too.

Anyways, if it makes you happy then yes I am the most unethical and awful person here. Period.

You do online marketing, affiliate marketing, some other online business, buy & sell domains to make money. It's your business. Anyone who would buy this kind of domain from you is in that same business. Whether said person knows about the trademark or not is his/her problem as it is his/her business to know about it.

I don't even know why this subject of you being ethical or not is even discussed. And I'm 100% positive some people who think you are unethical will have some "unethical" believes themselves that they incorporate in their business tactics, knowingly or not.
It's always funny seeing people give other people crap about their business ethics, while all they do in actuality is talk the talk but not walk the walk.

Although I wouldn't register a domain with a trademark, I'd probably be as "unethical" as you if I had such a domain.

When I was new someone sold me an exact match registered trademark domain without mention anything about it (and I'm not buying anything from him anymore) so if you really want to pass it off to someone else, you better tell them the possible consequences. However, I would suggest just to let it expire or do what MikeFriedman said, try to contact Travelocity and see if they would like to take it.

Most of the searches in the first place will all go to the first link. Furthermore, it will be super hard to rank your domain over the Official travelocity site. Also, they have the site links on the searches too.

I would simply sign up as an affiliate, add some content, and keep my fingers crossed. Go for micro niche keywords.

do you want to sell this domain

I think you guys are just over reacting way to much and calling this poor guy names when he just wanted a suggestion on a domain name. Thousands of people around the globe book domain names in the hope that may be able to sell it off for a higher price or maybe monetize it in someway or the other. If you ask me if this would happen, in my opinion it won't.

It would only be unethical if he tries to impersonate the identity of the business by setting up a similar website where people do not know which one is the real site.

My advise, keep the domain with you. If the company needs the domain they will get in touch with you.

However, if you setup an affiliate site, I don't think it would be a success at all. I don't think you will receive even a single click. Because people searching for travelocity flights are looking for the original website not yours. And more over there would be so much competition that your site will not feature for this keyword just because your domain name matches the keyword.

there will be some amount of time before Travelocity realizes you may be violating their trademark and after they do they will probably have an atty send you a "cease and desist" letter telling you to take the site down within a certain time.

Before that happens you could make a few bucks on some travel related affiliate offers.

I had one site a while back that used the name facebook as part of the domain and did get such a cease and desist letter but it was after the site had been up for 4-5 months.
