the DNA was an automated domain appriasal tool. you typed in or selected your information and stats and it gave you an appraisal.

not perfect.. but fun and decent

Cool, one of my domains was worth $14, and everyone (well almost everyone) said reg fee.

Thanks RJ, why did you take it out?

You can read about how it comes up with value here
http://www.namepros.com/metrics.php

The DNA tool was originally developed by former NamePros Staffer Dave Heitman a couple of years ago and aside a few minor additions it uses the same formula. I'm updating the tool to integrate into our site, will be done soon.

Can anyone help me, what do you think the Market Rating would be on muslimfaith.info and jewishfaith.info? I put 2.5 for both and got High Retail: $200 Low Retail: $150 Wholesale: $45 which seems way too high.

I would give those names a market rating of 1.5.

For market rating you're estimating the demand for that industry. Are names in that industry in high demand? Is it hard to find good available names for that industry? Are there many advertisers bidding on those keywords at Google or Overture? Those are questions I would ask when trying to determine a market rating.

Thanks RJ, I was going by the length of the domain basically. Still though

High Retail: $60
Low Retail: $45
Wholesale: $14

Seems really high for some .infos that were unregistered near THE END of the free .info thing.

Low Retail: $60

I'll try IshanMukherjee.com, it'll probabally be worth $1 wholesale

4 google results 0 overture No one likes my name enough to search it.

In fact it's completly worthless...
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/the-break-room/57332-petition-bring-back-dna-tool-pretty.html
High Retail: $0
Low Retail: $0
Wholesale: $0



And I can't completly vouch for it's accuracy, Dwayne, but it seems alomst about right to me. I would personally say virtualstrippoker.com was worth a little more though.

And heres what I come up with for johnsmith.com

High Retail: $1,150
Low Retail: $863
Wholesale: $259

Thats if I give it 25 uniques.
