this other guy values his domains on what they could be ,I sell domains that are correct and sell themselves , develop the site and your site will have value
First I've never put a value on any of my domains here, and most appraisals I made in the appraisal area (none for my own names) the names that I have put a value on, aren't even worth a reg fee usually IMO, like this domain, it's a dog and should not have been registered and never developed
Unlike most here, I'm a developer primarily and also a domain 'investor', and if someone came to me with real money to waste on developing a dog like this, I would turn down the project, since to get my skills today, you have to
a. have big bucks to develop
b. give me a piece of the project
99% of people with domains they own as 'investors' have no clue what it takes to really develop a domain name, that's why you see them saying oh develop this or that, LOL, maybe their time is worthless, mine is worth a lot and to put up 5 simple pages in wordpress with real seo on it and a nav slider and a nice theme well it's around 1K a page through my company and yet some wanna be hacks will do it for 99 bucks out of India
Now to do REAL DEVELOPMENT you're talking about thousands of pages and a lot more than seo and a slider, etc, you're talking about app development and cloud development and real apps, etc.
So 500K to 5M is a 'normal' development budget today, so do you really want to put good money and or your valuable time on a dog domain name like this, hell no
Now if you follow the advice of who I quoted he thinks ilawyer4you.mobi is just as good as ilawyer.com to 'develop'.
LOL
he's not a developer and I doubt he's ever sold a domain name for more than pocket change (5K)
anyone claiming 'insurances' should be developed or has any value is not giving you sound advice
with the net still being in infant stage, meaning what is big today won't even exist in 10 or 20 years, there's still a huge window to is get into great projects and the key to any project is
a. get a keyword.com if available or a strong prefix keyword.com
b. be ready to put 500K to 5M into development
c. if it works, you can get 25m to 50m for 2nd stage financing and then do an IPO and get 1bil+
99.9% of 'opinions' here are from quick buck speculators
that's great, lots of minor money being made today by speculating in some keywords in worthless tld's that will never be developed out
the IPO's are all coming out of .com projects, so .com is king
you say that here and all the speculators get upset because they're churning nothing 'investments' into pocket change and building nothing and it's really just a con game
oh I own keyword.tld give me xxxx or xxxxxx
why?
if it's not .com it has no future
if it's a minor industry and not a major industry it's never going to see an IPO day
oh, you got a great idea for the next traffic site, good luck, you better have a fortune in dough to have the infrastructure to do a fast viral growth and today a real app starts in the 500K range
A startup today needs 4 to 5 gurus, a guy who is expert on the cloud and apps
A great developer and content creator
A great seo guy/girl
A sem expert
That's 1M a year in salaries and a piece of the action to get sharp people able to do a big project
very few names have ever appeared in this section that actually have development level value, so in real life that's how I look at a domain, is it .com and is it a huge industry and is it natural keyword or a limited amount of quality prefixes
outside of .com, no tld is worth developing in IMO, none of them, the reason is simple you won't get far in investor dough unless you have a .com period
name one IPO for a .mobi or .pro or whatever .tld that was not a .com
even a .net that took off had to buy the .com before they could do an ipo
so in the big picture, .com is all that is worth developing and 'investing' in IF you have big plans and IPO ideas
sure you can churn tons of tld's today for minor dough, but none will ever see the light of an IPO
they're like bitcoin, a complete scam started by the NSA to track terrorists and drug dealers and experts that understand the algorithm and encryption and how servers and volume work all said, it's a toy, it will never do anything since the idea is all wrong, you can do volume in transactions hundreds of millions a day
Sure enough a few stress tests were done and the network came to it's knees
you need huge computers to do what visa and mastercard do today and the idea of 20K slow servers all sharing the same ledger, well it's FUNNY when you really understand the fault of the scam
Now the same with tld's all the 'experts' saying they got value, and some thinking they do, well down the road .com's will still be going public and not one tld outside of .com will have an ipo
So that means in the big picture, only fools will develop outside the .com tld
or they're hobbyists
if you want to maximize the value of your time and money you have one tld, .com
a major industry .com is now worth 5M to 100M without a prefix, so what is the development prefix worth? to speculators not much, but a quality prefix on maybe 100 industry terms are the most valuable domain names around IMO since they can get huge development budgets and if lucky one day an IPO, no other tld has that potential. so to me, they're all worthless, like bitcoin, a scam started by a few that profited, who profited from the tld rush? a few registrars that's who, the names are worthless for development
Now if you want to waste time and money with insurances on any term, go ahead, it is worthless and will never sell for more than pocket change due to being a bad plural
.com is king and some plurals are great but insurances is worthless and should never be developed and it should have never been registered
Now for anyone to continue to say they like it and it's good or great, well they're not giving you great advice IMO, since it's a zero search term, not even 1 out of 100 will search for dog insurances
LOL
I doubt even 1 out 1000 would search for it
worthless domain, anyone claiming it has value is giving you bad advice IMO
