Considering the adwords spend each month by end users for phrases ‘internet service providers’ and ‘home business opportunities’, either of these domains would be an absolute steal for an end user. Perhaps we, as domainers, also need to spend more time working *together* on figuring out best practices for we ourselves to market to end users. After all, the more that end users become educated about the value of domain names, the higher the value of all of our domain names.
