domain Amime.com

Is it worth anything?

When I tried to type Anime (as in the japanese animation) I got Amime by accident? Saw it was for sale SO I bought it.

or it could be A Mime dot com. Don't really know about the price as I am a noob. Just admiring the domain

If it is getting traffic then yes, otherwise no.

Anime remains one of the most searched term on internet. "n" and "m" stand right next to each other on the keyboard, which makes the domain easily fall into ''Typo" category. As "tetrapark" has said...you need to watch for type-in traffic. The amount of traffic the names gets will reflect its value. Good Luck with it.

You will have up update us on the amount of traffic you are getting. Good luck!

I paid $1300 for it, did I get ripped off?

In that case, I certainly hope it has type-in traffic or there's a mime out there willing to buy it. Good luck!

Well you must have some stats you looked at before buying?

How do those stats look is the domain generating Parking revenue.

 

[knobleman]

no parking revenue was disclosed. I just got started in domaining yesterday

 

[numb2k3]

check the visitors you get.

 

[mike55]

you say you reg'd it and that you paid $1300 for it?????? i'd change registrars.....

 

[knobleman]

sorry mike, i bought it, thinking it was a good deal. newbie mistake - a costly one

 

[numb2k3]

I see you have a lot of money to spare knobleman. Its not necessarily a mistake, just wait for the opinion of others.

I think that's a good buy. This is a very quality typo of anime, and anime gets huge searches. Looks like amime might get some decent traffic by itself, my guess is you'll get between 800 - 1500 type-ins per month, which is very very good, especially with a word like this that is extremely easy to monetize. And if you were to develop the site rather than park it, and optimize it well for both anime and amime searches, I think you can get it very near front on the search page results, and then ads/adsense might make you more than parking revenue.

I think you paid a very good reseller's price for the name; based on guessing the traffic, without being given stats, I'd say your price was not low but not overly high either, kind of in the good, balanced 'sweet spot' where both you and the seller are happy and neither of you got ripped off. Let us know how the traffic does.

Thanks Bannen, I appreciate your input. I will let you know about traffic stats in a month or two.
