domain car.travel

[RicardoEast]

Hi everyone. My first time on this forum.

How do I go about getting a domain appraisal on

http://car.travel

Thanks for your time and stay hacker free please!!!!

Hmmm. I take it this means it's only regvalue? Anyone?

I'm positive its worth more than reg fee.

Really, it's hard to valuate anything in the .travel extension because it's one of those obscure TLDs where not much speculation, sales or development have occurred.

But that has to be one of the sweetest usages of the .travel TLD I've ever seen. I'll throw out a wild ass guess and say at least $10k+ valuewise on the open market.

Past sales,
Car.at $10,726 Oct 05
Car.de $15,102 Feb 05
Car.de $72,296 Sep 05
Car.biz $14,027 Nov 05

Wow!

Thanks RJ!

That's amazing. I guess the car rental industry would love it.

And thank you for the welcome message earlier today.

Richard.

Ah, it's for real.. I thought it was a new.net extesion at first!

Like RJ, I have no idea what .travel would go for.. best of luck!

Yes, that would be a great way for this domain to be used. I would suggest searching for an end user in that industry so that you can get a pretty penny for your domain. I wouldn't sell for any less than high $x,xxx.

Congrats on the nice domain, and welcome to Namepros! :gn:

Great name

Dont accept anything below $5,000. Maybe price to sell around $10,000 and work from there

Good luck with that name. Wish i had it :p

How in the world did you register a .travel? Are you a travel related business?!?!

 

[kev]

ye..i had a quick look at the requirements. you need to be in one of 19 sectors according to there official site. Unfortunate in that it could detract from a reseller buyer, so you will need to look for an enduser

NamePros - Very addictive

Been only 12 hours and I think I'm hooked on this name pros domain thing.

Yes, I run a small Australian travel agent specialising in car rental. Thats how I registered the ".travel" domain.

Thanks for everyone's feedback!

sorry to be reviving an old thread, but are you allowed to sell travel domains on the open market? if only travel agencies can register them?

 

[mmurch03]

Great point SEO, probably unlikely...

Keyword rocks. Extn is lousy.
But the combination is more worth than reg fee.
Mid xx IMO
