New to IDN's - Need help deciding where to start

[TheFifty9Sound]

I may not have responded to all you helpful comments right away, but please know I have taken onboard everything you have all said, and have been reading everything on this forum to and from work every day on the train.

Hello,

It's a few months in to my IDNing (I still check this forum most everyday) and I was wondering if I could get a bit of a critique on some of my "better" IDN's. These names all get a little bit of traffic and a few clicks here and there, though there's nothing here to write home about. Before I graduate to playing in the aftermarket, I want to make sure I've at least got a decent feel for things.

These were all hand regs.

بارسلونا.com
گویا.com
人体艺术.org
চটি.com
الماسونية.com
tvműsor.com
telefonkönyv.com
マンチェスター.com
গেম.com
安全.org
crtići.com

Also, here is another one I picked up on the weekend - пере.com. It's got 900,000+ searches on Yandex and two days in is starting to get a little bit of traffic. Best I can tell it's perhaps short for "translate"? Can anyone shed any further light?

Thanks guys!

بارسلونا.com - okay (Barcelona, travel term).
گویا.com - delete (I think this is a tm)
人体艺术.org - okay (body art - very popular in China, probably because it's the only nudity that avoids being blocked)
চটি.com - drop maybe (if it doesn't get reasonable revenue)
الماسونية.com - okay (Fremasonry - I didn't know Arabs were into this)
tvműsor.com - okay (TV show)
telefonkönyv.com - good (directory, commercial potential)
マンチェスター.com - good (Manchester - technically not a tm, even though users are looking for one thing)
গেম.com - 'games' in Bengali. Long-term keep perhaps? What is the prime term?
安全.org - safety in Chinese. I'd imagine there are better names left to register in the .org namespace
crtići.com - good (cartoons in Croatian)

With пере, if it makes a profit keep it.

安全.org

You have two .orgs in Chinese. imo There is nothing wrong in having a few chinese .orgs but i think if you want to reg extensions other than .com choose .net if you can, they are far more popular in china i think. There are also better .orgs available i think ( i rarely look at them)

don't be afraid of "dropcatching" them there is little competition you can sometimes hand-reg quality terms that drop.
