Appraisal for oneword (com) domain?

[maxt0r]

How much does an "oneword" .com domain costs ,which has 1,250,000 results at google?

Without numbers and hyphens.

Depends on the domain name. I don't think anyone will be able to give you an accurate appraisal from just the number of google results.

I assume this is such a one word name that you found unregistered. You can PM me the name if you want and I'll run it through my system - I wont' register it don't worry.

And I agree with Astroman - # google results is by no means sufficient info to appraise a name. Sure, >1,000,000 is good. I'd say most names with google results between 1,000,000 and 2,000,000 would fall into the $100 (one hundred dollars) -$500,000 price range - very few are worthless, and very few are worth huge money

i have found a loot of words avaliable, which 99% of them are worthless i think. (dictionary check over 150,000 words)
What makes a word worths more than the others? verbs,pronounceable,objects,names?

 

[namewaiter]

many things...

popularity
length
market size
definition
awareness
competition
recallability (if thats a word)
brandable
pronouncable
emerging technology/industry
uniqueness
marketability (print/ on radio / word of mouth)
and others...

leapfish and domain research tool give accurate appraisals? or just 10-20%...

I'd like to point out once again also ....

Google results means nothing IMO - I can't understand to this date how people use this as any sort of guide.

The more results returned by search engines = The more competition you have to get noticed.

If it is a word that no one searches for to begin with (I'll assume no one is searching for this "one word" simply because the .com version is still available -- Or is it ?) - and Even if they do search for it a few times a day or month .... They would have to filter through "1,250,000 results" to find your domain or site.

Mark I agree with you that there are brandables that might be valuable regardless of Google results. However, it's not true that Google results mean "nothing". If you look at past sales, you'll notice that most high end domains have massive Google results, there are barely any exceptions. COnversely, low end domain names generally have lower Google results. There is a proven correlation between Google results and domain name value, but of course Google result # is by no means the only factor, but it is one factor to consider when researching a domain name.

for instance, especially for those not proficient in the English language, Google will tell that "luxuryhousing" is a better and more popular term than "housingluxury".

ALso, google will tell you if your "brandable" is being used by people as nicknames, product names etc

Well, it really depends on the name. Personally, I don't think that there are any ok dictionary words available, they are all taken. Only crappy words that most people haven't heard of are available.

If it's an ok name, I'd register it straight away, but if it's not, then there's a reason why nobody has taken it.

number of times that term is searched on a month is an important factor to appraise the oneword domain. check your domain.

I know what you mean Josh , But if you don't compare those results with Interest in the term - It still means nothing. Of course domain terms of recent domain sales for high$ are listed .... But they are more than likely Terms searched for quiet often also ....

Anyone of us could make up a new word and have it spread across google in a few days if we wanted to - Still doesn't mean a domain for that word is worth more than 2 cents.

Google results alone means absolutely nothing - IMO

Agreed Mark for the most part. However if your dotcom domain has google results of excess of 500,000 or so, I think it's an indicator that a double take is justified and then look at the other factors that you mentioned But of course having less than 500,000 does not mean that you shouldn't look into it. Just good to keep eyes open and look at various factor.

If you are finding words in a dictionary that aren't pronounceable, theres something wrong
