Your opinion about this name please

 

[Kyle Tully]

Solid name.

Plenty of companies using the name, taken in a few extensions with a few other variations registered.

I'd probably price this around 5k. Lower if you want it to move fast. Higher if you want to hold on for the best buyer.

Thank you so much Kyle

$10 to $75 = Reseller Value Speculation (NOT an end user speculation)

At first glance, it’s OK but it’s three words which is kind of iffy

Thanks for sharing your opinion, Im with you that’s a long name but I think based on the data it can sell, many 3 word sales in 4 or even 5 Fig in Namebio

It's decent. I'm guessing (hoping) it was a hand reg or lower cost closeout purchase.

Kyle makes a good point that it's being used in a few extensions, but context is important here too. These are not companies that would pay mid four figures for a .com upgrade. They're small, local businesses.

As much as it's a good name, I would be mindful of what type of buyers you're targeting: mostly small businesses looking for a trustworthy and memorable name. Most of them will hand register a domain. I would price this one accordingly. $5K feels high, and I would aim for $1.5 to $2K.

Thanks for sharing Joe, unfortunately it wasn’t a HR or Closeout, I got it for 87$, Pricing it lower may result in a quick sale but I think it’s better to wait for the perfect buyer and price it above $4k even if it can take a long time, maybe I will consider lowering the price later…
Thank you so much I appreciate your help

For sure! Even at $1.5K, I would not expect a quick sale, since you're waiting for a local small business with deep pockets (or an understanding of DN value), or a larger business that doesn't exist yet and really likes the name. It's one of those tricky ones that looks better than it may turn out to be in reality.

Good luck with it!

Got it bro thank you so much, so based on this do you think that investing in domains related to local small businesses can be risky and not really worth it ? Businesses like : Cleaning - Roofing - landscaping…. ?

I know there are domainers who have had a lot of success with these types of names, but you should generally try to focus on larger municipalities, and should make sure that the name is as simple, direct, and well-structured as it can be.

So good examples would be:

• RochesterRoofing
• GlendalePhotography
• SpringfieldPlumbing

Examples of stuff to avoid would be:

• PlumbingSpringfield
• TopDetroitRoofers
• PhotographyInColumbus

Not that the types of names in the second group can't sell... The larger the market, the greater your potential pool of buyers is, and the better chance you have of a business paying up for a second-tier name.

Your name is generic (i.e. not specific to a geogrphical location), which has both good and bad elements. Good, in that your pool of buyers is much bigger. Bad, in that local businesses often want to target their local customer base, so a generic name might not be as appealing to them.

Other domainers here have a lot more personal experience with these types of names. I know @bmugford has offered a lot of advice on geo names in the past (maybe he'll grace us with some here ).

Another consideration, which would require some of your own trial and error, is that certain industries are more likely to spend money on a domain name than others. I've heard that law offices are particularly stingy, for example.

I got the idea bro thanks, do you advice me to focus on ‘Higher quality ‘ names and pay $xxx or even $xxxx for each name keeping the portfolio small but the quality High ?

A lot of people do advocate for that strategy, but you should experiment and figure out what works for you. There's more than one way to turn a proft with domain names.

 

[abdelwahed77]

Im with you, there is many strategies and you can also have a mix of those strategies in ur portfolio, thank u so much I appreciate your help
