Hi All,
It's been few months since I started domaining. Its been quite a work and I've been fortunate enough to make 3 sales till now, although very small in size. I am a regular NP visitor; I'm aware of Estibot and similar tools; I read posts from DomainSherpa and I read Mike Mann, Frank Schilling and Shane Cultra. I've subscribed to Domaining and other popular sites' newsletters. Overall, I think I'm doing well for this short period of time. I've had sleepless nights to bid for that perfect name!
Now, with all things said, there is still one thing that that gives me chills in this business. Whenever I like a name and think to buy it, I just go uncertain for some time, I cannot decide what the name is worth, I feel like I'm a total noob! I wish if somebody could help me if the name is really worthy for the money I pay.
I feel like this is every newbie's nightmare; whether to go for it or not. To address this, I am thinking to build a crowd-sourced appraisal platform. How it works (very highlevel): You submit a name and other users will give their appraisal. You'll need to appraise 10 or so names to win 1 appraisal. It'll be somewhere similar to Flippa's appraisal feature.
Core will be the appraisal part. There could be other features but I'm just not sure if anyone will find it useful in the first place.
So, do you think it's going to be any useful for you? Any feedback is welcome! It can be criticism, suggestions for new features or anything you've in your mind. Even if you say, this is s*** idea and will not work, with some explanation, I won't mind; that would in fact save me a lot of time.
On the bright side, I think this can be really helpful for all of us.
Looking forward to you input.
