One of the Seven Deadly Sins: Gluttony.com Closes today
Gluttony.com is currently at NameJet auction with less than 4 hours remaining. Currently bidded up to $4,544. This is one of those domain names that I feel will hit a pretty high sales price, going up another few thousand dollars but has very limited development potential. Out of the seven deadly Sins, this is probably the weakest in regards to domain names.
Lust.com could be used obviously as an adult natured domain name and is great to brand and easy to remember and spell. Greed.com could be turned into either a work at home business site or even a blog/news site about unethical business. Sloth.com could be used as a gaming or “bored” site. Games, Videos, ect on it. Wrath.com could be used for an anger management site or even posting stories about people you hate. Envy.com could be a shopping site for the worlds finest things. Pride.com could be a sports gear site, for you to show pride in your team.
The only thing I could see Gluttony.com being used for is for a weight loss site. Even as a developed site for that, spelling and brand ability may be a bit tough. Although Gluttony is a reasonably familiar word, it is also a word that is ugly and in my opinion difficult to say compared to the other sins. I wish the winner good luck, but I have a feeling this will go too high.

I have to agree with you, Justin. This one will be hard to brand or monetize.

I’m trying to imagine a commercial on tv. Picture a pretty woman saying with a straight face at the end “To get more information, visit our website at Gluttony.com!”. Wouldnt that be a subtle insult to people whether its dining out or losing weight? lol

Bingo. Its a terrible domain name to build on for that exact reason. It just feels “ugly”

Althought Gluttony might be a challenge to wrap an idea
around… I still think it has LOTS of potential…
Chef Network, Catering, Online Ordering for things like
Crab Cakes, Lobster, Steaks etc… Caviar… etc
