lol. In one thread you are asking $500, in the next thread you are asking someone to appraise it.

Personally, both as someone who is getting into domain aquisition, but primarily as someone who is in the financial services and insurance business.... that domain is worthless. Beyond worthless actually, not even worth the reg fee.

Here is why I would not want it as an end user.
1. Toooooo long.
2. Hyphonated.
3. you have two different keywords in one.
4. As a consumer... I would not visit a website with the address carinsurance-autoinsurance.com. There is NOTHING professional about it.

I am sure some sucker would buy it.... but it is not brand able, not trust worthy, and no way in hell would I put that on my business card as an end user.

So effectively the best you can hope for is making it a high page rank, slap on some CPA offer, get some traffic and offload it to some fool on flippa.

Sorry for this brash response, but it is merely because you had the audacity to post it for sale, and ask $500 for the domain that you yourself have no clue what it is worth.

Did you just hand reg it for $2?

Looks like 2 domains in one. Just bad

Although if you put it for sell at x to xx maybe someone could buy it, who knows

IMHO

Good luck with other domains

My first thoughts when I see this domain:

1) Its a fresh hand reg because of its nature and it being in the appraisal section.

2) Since it starts with car first instead of auto, it tells me that the auto first version was already regged.

Now looking it up, seems both of these statements are true.

But its passed the grace delete time frame so your stuck with this name for a year.

You can see if the auto first person wants the name, but odds are very high they don't since they past up on regging your name too.

Its a no value name in my opinion but that never means a name cant be sold. Goodluck.

And it is also in the for sale section for $500.

Realistically it is no more than a $5 or $10 name... actually single digits. It might rank higher for keywords, but that is it. It has parked value, but no end user value.

It might rank higher for keywords, but that is it. It has parked value, but no end user value.

why if it can rank high? isn't it what an end-user would love to get - high google rank?

..that's not that simple
i'd keep it and offer for mid-high $xxx to the end-users which are plenty to be found...
we have all seen even more obscure names successfully sold..
end-users may have really different view.. for example they know that users dont usually pay any attention to domain name when they click on 1st google result.. and they know that they can have AA.com for their business cards while still needing 30-letters .com to get their cutomers coming enmasse..

just start emailing and stop offering it to domainers

And for one reported obscure sale, there are millions of even less obscure names ending up quitely deleted.

Thats not how one should base the portfolio strategy on.

Anyway, now that you can't grace delete the name anymore, why not, you could contact the owner of this ugly .org page. Maybe he will take a similar .com for $100 or something.

autoinsurance-carinsurance.org

Also the .info with your name is taken.
Not used though. But you can try.

of course not.. i was mainly replying to maksimfa - his assumption was it might rank high but still has no value to end-users because it looks unprofessional, cant be printed on business cards, users never click on ugly domains in google etc..

if it really can rank high (which is not clear and unfortunately can not be tested without much time/money/effort invested) or end-users may think so the name would be of interest to any of them..

the problem is i dont really think that the name would be of any help in reaching high google rank.. but thats another story

Probably one of the worst domains I have seen up for appraisal for a very long time but kudos to you for having the balls to post it.

I don't mean an end user who is a domainer, or some affiliate marketer who would solely go online methods. In which case, it would matter less.

I am talking a legit end user who is willing and would be shelling out real money for the domain. Ie... me. (I own and operate a financial planning and investment advisory practice).

So.... to an insurance agent... even if it had higher page rank... it is essentially worthless. It would not be anyone's professional home page.

To an end user, it is less about traffic the domain generates, and more about everything else, especially if you are going to be building the marketing yourself.

So... name one Auto Insurance agent who would buy www.carinsurance-autoinsurance.com for their brand spanking new insurance agency? :p

If for some reason, someone did develop traffic to that page.... the only way to use it would be...

1. CPA offers, pay per lead, etc... (but we are dealing with an affiliate marketer) not an insurance agent.

2. An existing insurance producer, who is looking at it purely as a lead generation site, but is not their primary site....


so... back to the point...

As the domain is right now.... ie, no traffic no nothing, just a shitty name..... it is worthless.

If for some reason he develops it and it gets traffic, he would only be able to sell it to one of the two above.... but then again.... why would you chose to develop that name.... over another .com or a shorter more descriptive name and even a different TLD.

ie... automotiveinsurance.ws which is avail, your welcome, is far better than the one here.

the domain does not necessarily need to be turned into a homepage/online brand. if as you assumed it could have high rank/good traffic it could be used as a landing page generating leads with links to other owner's sites.. you already mentioned that.. and that would make it valuable

i meant to say that any domain that's ranking/can potentially get high rank is not worthless as it is able to bring customers. as i said i dont think this particular name has its chances to rank high but that was you assumption

if ugly hyphenated keyword domains had been all useless we would've never seen any end-user sales.. but they happen. it's all about traffic generating sales not re-branding etc

i would not register this name too in any case but now when it's already registered and cant be grace deleted lets try to find any possible selling points...

This domain breaks the sacred 14-Character Rule of Domains™. I recommend deleting this domain from your account and locking down your registration workstation. IMHO

 

[webm]

In hurry, I took them as Carinsurance and Autoinsurance as two different domains and that forced my eyes to go wide and my hands to open the thread, even though I used to refrain myself posting in the appraisals sections.

To be very honest, this is one of the great domain that fits on all criteria of domain crimes:
Awfully long: Check
Hyphenated: Check
Mixing up keywords that were not meant to mix: Check

It just lacks in the TLD segment. Had it been a .TK, it would have qualified as one of the gem in Appraisals history.

Is this a serious appraisal?

This wins the worst domain of 2012 award.

$0.

Best of luck to you in 2013!
