"The" is considered a keyword?...I do not see it in the list....so investing in domains starting with "The" is not good idea?
Words like (the, in, of) are commonly used, but they aren't meaningful on their own without a related word beside them.
"The" is in the list before being processed and filtered.
The list that AFTERNIC published includes only keywords with a clear meaning that don't need a synonymous word to understand its meaning.
AFTERNIC publishes unfiltered lists for top keywords sold on their platform. You can visit their page.
Regarding investing in domain names preceded by "the" in this period, it is a wonderful idea and is used, especially in the .com extension.
For example, you will not be able to buy Goal .com due to the high price, but chances to buy
TheGoal. com is much higher, and if you buy it there will be buyers interested in the keyword Goal and the chances of selling it will be good.
Here is a list of some domain sales that start with "THE" for this year :
