Note that Dating.com sold for USD1.75m in 2010 as I recall.

The comparison to .com is irrelevant.

I’d say $10k minimum.

Dave · Feb 7, 2019

This is the type of name that fits .TV really well.

I agree with Keith. $10k at least.

MartinHaynes · Feb 7, 2019

Hi Keith. Point taken. It was just a note that Dating.com did achieve that price. Of course a .tv is never going to achieve a .com price - its all relevant. SEDO did a domain appraisal for dating.tv at USD25,000 back in 2008 and at the simple website dating.tv , the appraisal is there.

Premium renewal will drag down some of the ability to resell.

Its a good point as yes, it is a Premium .tv Domain Name. But in the right hands or company, it could do very well and generate good income so the renewal fee would be small in the bigger picture. I also have AdultMates.com that I registered back in 2001 when I was in Australia. ( G´day mate !! ) Aussies use mate in every sentence lol AdultMates was to be a spin on AdultFriendfinder but was never developed.

It seems you are realistic about the valuation on it, you been holding it a long time, if you haven’t got the right offer in the past decade, the chances of getting it today is pretty slim.

Either lower the expectations to low 5
Figures, or develop as it seems like you have the skill set to achieve this, but crowded space, it’s more about swipe, then stare these days.

$25.000 USD

BrandEntrance.com · Feb 17, 2019

$25.000 - much more if a blind date kind of show gets this.

dande · Feb 17, 2019

$15k will be a fair value. But I won't be surprised if you get $70k on this gem. Similar .tv names have sold for around that figure in recent time

$15,000 to $35,000 domain
You can afford to wait for the right end user.

The problem I see is the relationship between the name and the TLD. I mean, is there a market for dating services using a TV? It sounds rather inconvenient when compared to the alternatives. I think that, while on the surface it looks like a great domain, you may be hard-pressed to find that buyer at the XX,XXX range. Such a buyer would have to have the resources to develop it into what it is supposed to be and a good, solid plan to make it profitable, and I don't see .TV working in this case. JMHO.

If I had a dollar for every dating show I have seen since the serial killer Alsace...

WatchDogue · Feb 20, 2019

It is an eye catching and memorable domain.

IMO the popular " dating " topic flows well and looks fine with the .tv extension.

Would think a reasonable xx,xxx should be achievable in time, 20k -30k. range.

Doesn't really suit the extension if it were developed as a dating service. However for reality TV... it fits perfectly.

EbookLover · Feb 20, 2019

I guess I see your point. I always forget about TV and reality shows because I never watched reality shows and I don't even own a TV anymore. To me, TV is more or less obsolete lol

If TV & reality shows on TV are still as popular as they used to be, then I agree, this domain has XX,XXX worth to an end user (bur possibly even more).

But I think it would be best to not wait around for that end-user. Better seek them out actively.

No idea on the value because i'm not familiar with .tv but just chiming in, because today i was at the gym and on the tv an informercial was running with the url of ubox.tv. They own the ubox.com version but chose the .tv version for their informational. I thought that was interesting.

Looks like their doing it to track the TV ad and special offer. when you go to ubox.tv, it redirects to a special offer landing page on the .com https://www.uhaul.com/UBox/TV/ instead of to the home page
