Hi there!

I don't want to be a meanie, but I really don't think these are very good. You would be struggling to get reg fee I think.

GL!

 

[Parsec1982]

RH, Your being honest not mean. So what do you think about these???

masterypower.com
joypowder.com
finalthrill.com
phonyup.com
shedway.com

 

[poiuytrewq]

erm....bad dude. What else you got?

Have you thought about getting one good one and developing a site around that? Maybe that would be a better approach.

Just a thought. Jus trying to be helpful!

TimeScheme.com

No good??? Do I need to look less into the numbers and more into the marketing and brandability??? I have already developed one domain:

www.MostWantedChristmasToys.com

Thanks

 

[poiuytrewq]

Nahhh. Have you tried buying on the aftermarket? Consider this. Buy 100 crap domains and you've lost say, $1,000. Now, that 1K could have got you a nice, tidy domain you could do something with! Quality rather than quantity is the key. If I have an army of a million men and no guns, I'm still gonna lose against 1 dude and a bazooka.

Hey, I can sell you a nice pronouncable 4 letter .com if you like for 2K.

 

[Parsec1982]

Thanks for the advice. I'll go look around NameJet or something..

TimeScheme.com is a good one.

I like this one the most.

To be honest most of these domains are not good and not very usable.
Also you should not register blindly based on search engine results. You can get millions of results for obscure keywords or awkward combos, that doesn't mean the resulting names have any value.
I would suggest that you read the forum a lot, take your time, and check dnjournal.com often for reported sales so you get a better idea of what kind of names do sell. Good luck.

SDsinc, Thanks for the additional information.

Not hugely valuable, but they're really not that bad.

I could, in some way, imagine half of them as developed sites. These appraisals shouldn't always be taken as gospel. I'm constantly amazed on DNF and here as well how people will spit on a name that makes some sort of sense as not worth anything at all.

And then there are people paying $100 for ZJQZ.net - just strange to me.

So I would say the advice of developing the names yourself is the key. Only register things where you could imagine developing a site around them yourself.

Agree with the above, the domains could be better but they could be worse. :tu:

A very naive understanding of the biz if you don't mind me saying. These are just appraisals from people who have sold a few - it's nothing personal. Nobody's spitting on a name. Your terminology is misinformed and inappropriate. A domain has NO exact value until someone buys it. All we can do is speculate using experience and the state of the market. Getting an attitude about others' appraisals shows a distinct lack of class IMO.

I have distinct lack of class? This is from someone who told me a name I'd gotten a $100 offer on was "wrthlss" - sorry, but I'm not too concerned with your opinion.

And I know it goes on, but an L-L-L.com or an LLLL.net should not be worth more than a domain that makes some sort of sense. People pay it, so it's "worth" that much in the marketplace... but I truly don't understand why, nor would I ever particularly care to.

My interest lies much more in developing names than in the speculative game of registering typos and nonsensical letter combinations. But thanks anyway for sharing your opinion.

I like this name! You might be able to donate it to a charity soup kitchen.

Therefore I'd say it's worth exactly $1392.32 in karma.

Yeah right, of course you did. :hehe: And I went out on a date with J-Lo at the weekend.

Sorry dude, I just can't take you seriously.

Oh no... he doesn't take me seriously.
