domain DevelopApps.com - Opinions?

[enrage]

developapps.com

What do people think of this domain?

iPhone apps, Android apps, Windows Mobile apps, Palm apps, web apps etc...

The 'mobile app' seems to be very big around now, the iTunes app store is growing constantly, and only 2 days ago Palm released their mojo SDK so developers can submit apps to the Palm App store.

I think there is a lot of potential for the site - e-books, a community, development guides etc...

Just curious as to the value people think the domain is worth. I'd love to develop it, but i'm not sure i have the knowledge required.

Thanks.

Great domain, possibly a forum community.

On it's own, I would not pay more than $200 if I would want to develop it.

I like it. If it was my niche, I would pay anywhere from $500 to $2500 for this type of name. Good luck.

Thank you both for the feedback, I'd welcome any more anyone has to offer as well

this time, i do NOT agree with your Appraisal

anything over 500 is way to high for such a replaceable Name (2.500? no way)

1) Apps is an Abbreviation
2) DevelopApplications.com is FREE to register (and this one is better than yours, all results be it google, overture, etc. are better than Develop Apps)
3) All other Extensions of DevelopApps.com are FREE to register

Still, it IS a nice name and brandable, therefore i would say low xxx to mid xxx (sorry enrage, just my opinion)

btw, i am just talking about the NAME and not any website

Anyway, good luck

I like it especially if you start a forum or an apps store. If you can create an apps store them duplicate it so i can have the same store on my sites then you are in business.

Not sure i would agree on the second point - The iPhone Applications store (by far the most popular platform for development with over 65,000 apps and 1,500,000,000+ downloads) is called App Store not Application Store.
Therefore it would make sense to develop apps for the app store - in my mind anyway.

In the future as other platforms grow develop applications may make sense, but for now Apple is by far the market leader so i feel this is a much stronger domain.

As a brand, I could see someone going into the four figures for this one. While I agree it is not a slam dunk, there are many techies out there - and branding potential of this domain could be enough to warrent a nice offer.

This is subjective. We all base our appraisals based on our experience. As a software engineer, I would pay $XXXX for this domain. I paid the same amount for LocalExperts.com - and I think both have similiar brand potential - although for different markets.

Of course everyone who puts a name for appraisal, always agrees with the BEST Appraisal in the whole thread, and doesn't agree with appraisals which are sometimes with less amount, but maybe more realistic based on past sales, the market, domain tools, etc.

Of course everything is possible, and if someone really likes this name, he even may pay more than low xxxx.

Anyway, good luck, and of course i hope that you get xxxx (as i always do for my domaining fellows)

As localexpert pointed out, appraisals are always subjective

Reg the full spelling. Once you have control over the abbreviation and
the full spelling the value is secured at a premium. The value alone
is in the low $$$ range. With both names your approaching high $$$
to low $$$$ range. A little more as a package.


Just an opinion ..... Good luck

Yeah, reg DevelopApplications.com before someone else does.
btw, it is appraised at $2.600 by Estibot whereas yours is only $190,00 (just kidding) )
