domain Buy.com, shoes.com and a big question mark

[2houseplague]

1. achat.com -- French for buy.com
2. chaussures.com -- French for shoes.com
3. speedfreak.com -- This one sorta speaks for itself. It's been really tough to get a handle on the value. The term is obviously very well known. It has active use in common language... For example "He's a speedfreak!". And there are all kinds of things that bear the name speedfreak, from movies to video games to professional wrestlers. All that sounds great, right? But then your enthusiasm for the domain starts to run out of steam when you begin to try to think of ways to develop it. The first thing that comes to most people's mind is some kinda racing fan site. Okay sure, maybe. But, correct me please if you feel that I am wrong, but that use seems perhaps too narrow and perhaps below the domain's full potential. Thoughts?

Any traffic on the French names?

Any traffic on the French names?

Not much yet. I don't consider the type-in traffic to be the lion's share, however. These domains have both been under the radar of the search engines for years. So, as you would expect, even the most minimal SEO work is bringing in more and more organic hits every day. Within 2 months, I expect the organic traffic to be on the order of several hundred thousand hits per day, based on the presence of "achat" and "chaussures" in an estimated 75 million queries per day.

No guesses?

:wave:

you're totally right about the organic traffic... it must be incredibly easy to rise in the SERPs.

My system says you've got some extremely valuable domain names here:
achat $108 443
chaussures $51 766

The correct interpretation of these values is that you may be able to get substantially more from the right end user, and should be able to move these within a reasonable time frame to a reseller for either something close to those numbers or somewhat less. As a ballpark value these are probably pretty much right.

Then the mystery domain:
speedfreak $1 375

Good luck and congrats on owning these names.
