Please value
Thanks!
Thanks!
Wrong order. Best.husband would be the combination someone would want in a new gTLD.
So, $0.
$0
A free tip, if English is not your main language maybe ask a friend before buying backwards combos.
$0 for this one, focus on strong extensions
If .husband were available... well, may God have mercy on us all.
@gilescoley I am sure besthusband.com would be big bucks, not even going to look for it. Paid cheap for this, so am fine with anything. Just trying my luck
Even BestHusband.com, this is not a great name with very limited end-users
If you really have your mind set on a name like this, you are better off getting a names like BestHusband.co or TopHusband.com, which are available, and at least they are recognised extensions.
OK let me first make clear that I don't disagree with those who find there is probably little value in the domain name. As a stretch I could see it used for a blog, a social media related site, perhaps related to a television show or book, etc. That being said I would also offer the following....
While agreeing that proper language is important to value, like in most things domaining, I view this as more a guide than an absolute rule. We have only 500+ available extensions, so not every word combination can be done in the best order. Do they sometimes sell reversed? I would argue that most would suggest the following should be reversed for for best English, but they all (among many other examples) sold:
It's not that I am saying they are nonsense in the order sold, but would argue if it were possible to reverse the expression would be stronger. Also, would stress that the vast majority of combinations that sell are in the right order so not disputing that.
- sex.live $160,000
- porn.live $120,000
- education.global $30,000 (and many other global sales)
- toy.top $12,650
- milk.top $12,520 (and many many other .top domain sales including domain.top at $10,000)
Finally let me point out the following. I think most would say that buy(.)game sounds a little unnatural and buy(.)games is more usual English wording. It was noted above that the limited sales on extension rule out value for this .best extension name. So if a week ago I asked you to evaluate buy(.)game i suspect both arguments would be made against it, only a single prior sale in the extension (interestingly itself), and wording close but not quite perfect and another extension offers better wording. Yet this week buy(.)game sold for $29,999!
It is to our peril if we rely too strongly on black and white rules or guides. Yes, they are helpful, but always took at all angles.
JMHO

ps Since this is an appraisal thread, if I owned the name I would price it low $$$ with BIN and hope that someone would take it for a blog or personal website.
@gilescoley IMHO Besthusband.com (shows 1700$ at Godaddy) will get lapped up by someone for good money. I am too inexperienced (NIL practically) to tell whether it is $$$ or $$$$
Yes, its listed at godaddy for that, it doesnt mean its worth that. There are hundreds of thousands of names listed at GD and other platforms with crazy prices. If it was a decent price or the name was decent, it would have sold by now, why do think its still for sale?? If that price was dropped to $500 or $200 on GD, it will more than likely still be for sale. Dont look at godaddy or Sedo listings and their buy it now prices, most of them are dreamers.
Fordgt.com.au is listed for $200,000, it wont sell for that in a million years.
If Besthusband.co is available for $12, that would be a better option, even though I would personally leave it alone because of the limited use it has.
You get the idea...
BestHusband.com at 1700$ is maybe a good deal. If I had enough dough, I may have been inclined to go after it and start by asking 1000$.
I admire your passion @Va S and we do, usually, need that to successfully sell domain names. I also agree with the perspective that many names, even those that most do not like, do have someone who will find they have a good use.
Not being a pessimist, but a realist, I would also want to repeat the following I have said in many threads on NPs.
I do agree that some domains would have sold but the person owning them does not list them effectively, does not do other things to promote them or simply doesn't believe in them. Also some domains sell that many would say do not. I carefully go through the recent sales on NameBio every day and almost always there are names selling for $400 plus that I would never have predicted.
- Most domains never sell, ever.
- Taken over the universe of all domains available for resale the chances of a domain selling in any one year about 1 in 100.
- If you exclude all registry sales the chances of ngTLD domain sales a bit lower (maybe 1 in 300 although varies a lot with type and extension). When they do sell median prices are higher that partly, but not completely, makes up th difference.
- On average those involved in domain aftermarket lose money.
- To have reasonable chances one needs to most of the time concentrate on domains with a good number of possible end users.
Best wishes but also be realistic, as we all must, and always only invest in domains according to personal tolerance for risk.

No its not, and if you bought it you would be stuck with it and would more than likely let it expire after a year or 2 of renewals. You can buy a lot better name with a whole list of potential buyers with $1000, you could buy 4 names for $1000 better than BestHusband, always get a list of possible buyers before buying a name. Google "best husband" and see what comes up, and check how many developed sites are using that term.
You really need to read this forum for a few months before buying anymore names, you need to get a handle on what makes a name valuable. Check out namebio.com every day and sign up to the dnjournal sales newsletter to get an idea of what sells, it will save you a lot of renewals if you do that.
Yes Bob Hawkes mentioned some sales, but that is 5 sales and those sales are not the norm with these new extensions, but the exception, you cant read anything into that, especially when comparing your name.
They go for ngTLDs when it apt for the business or when legacy is too pricey. Am I correct?
husband.best is a good domain name compared to thousands of non-sense .com domains. Women are the right people to rate this domain, they see a better value in this domain.
@gilescoley @Bob Hawkes @bmugford @barman and others.
May not be a right question to continue here, but if you don't mind can you let me know if it is a good game plan to keep flipping for small profits? I am referring to some posts on some forums, where people have hundreds of domains. If I am such a person, and I decide to keep flipping for lets say just 5$ also above my cost, do you think it is sustainable and profitable, this volume business?

I found it quirky. A guy can show off with that. A wife can purchase if she wants to gift her man with it (Pictures of them together. What all he has done for her. etc etc). LOL.
Thanks!
