question FitnessGirl.com - why so expensive?

[DragonDF]

Hello guys!

I'd like to know what makes this domain (fitnessgirl.com) so especial that his actual owner thinks it costs $ 69K .
It was $1K one or two years ago.
And I thought it was expensive.
This domain have been used in adult promotion. So, it has not a serious value if you will use for something 'corrrect'.

Is there any way to buy domains in a REAL price? Or the owner can insert the price he thinks it values and you need to wait?

Tks!

 

[DragonDF]

Yes, you helped.
So,now we know he bought it for $ 777

About 41K monthly searches (about SEO I mean) it does not mean that DOMAIN had that searches, but that the keyword 'fitnessgirl' had 41K monthly searches.

And .. if it is not in the FIRST PAGE of any Search Engine.. it has NO TRAFFIC.

Thank you again.

A domain doesnt have to be present in google search results for it to be valuable, theres alot of valuable names which are just parked or point to forsale pages, which will have no presence in search engines whatsoever

Who the hell cares how much the owner asks for his own domain? Screw SEO, SMO and other crazy words promoted by spammers. It's a domain and is worth what the buyer will eventually pay for it, either 1k or 100k. It's really not your problem and crying here is the shittiest way to appraise that domain.

On a side note, I find it humorously ironic that he's selling it for 69k when it used to be a porn domain.

It used to be redirected to a porn domain, and archival sites have cached that. However, it was never actually branded as a porn site. The redirect looks to be from the previous owner (before the 2016 sale).

It's unknown if whomever purchased it for $777 knew its redirect history, and it is not known if the next owner will know the redirect history. Does the redirect history mean the domain can no longer be used in the fitness industry? Based on the name itself, I think fitness girl is better fit for the fitness industry, rather than porn.

In fact what some users (not polite and like the other said.. "Your whining salty') do not help in anything here.
I WILL NOT BUY THIS S**** OF DOMAIN.
I am not crying.
I do not LIVE TO BUY AND SELL DOMAIN. For this reason I came here. Because I imagined I could read professional people talking about professional experiense. It was not what happened in 50% of the time.

Some user with opinions of people who buy a domain for US$ 8 and want to sell it for $1000 after 1 year and want to attack anyone who opposes them.

I have looked for this name some time ago and for this reason I know it has been use to redirect to ADULT sites.

And about:

It used to be redirected to a porn domain, and archival sites have cached that. However, it was never actually branded as a porn site.

I do not know if you are inside an private network. It you are you can not visit this website. It will bring that it was blocked by firewall because it is an ADULT domain.


So, this is something bad when we are talking about TRAFFIC.


In my mind, it is MUCH BETTER to start with a new domain (no bad history) and make it happens inside SEARCH ENGINES.


And the revolted members: if you want you can buy it too. For $1K or $69K. I do not mind.

I am here to UNDERSTAND (as a professional) how this could happened.

Tks for who that tried to help.

Your posts show a lack of understanding of the value of domains. You’re best off just getting some hand registered garbage if you cannot see the value in a premium domain.

Whether it’s worth $69k isn’t the point but your posts seem to be insisting that no domain absent huge search statistics could be worth much and that’s not the case.

Not all domain owner's know the history behind all their domain's.

Not all domain owner's consider the history when pricing their domain.

Sometimes, domainers try to understand how a mediocre name actually sells for $69k. And part of the answer, is because the seller had the to ask for that amount. If you don't ask, you will not receive.

Guys, I respect your opinion.

But a price (in my mind) for something needs to have a 'value' involved. And this domain HAS NOT.

1. Yes, I contact him. And he replied me: $ 69,000 .

2. For you who think that this domain can value $69K (or 1K) I will show this is not real:
2.1 - a domain that was used for a long time as a PORN website or redirect for one.
2.2 - there is no GOOD TRAFFIC STATISTICs about it:

https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/fitnessgirl.com

We don't have enough data to rank this website.
If this is your website, sign up and get certified to get direct measurements of your site's traffic.

3. You can buy another FITNESSGIRL.SOMETHING for $7-15
As I explained before, if you go to GOOGLE and type "fitnessgirl" (yes, the best way to find it.. two words together) you WILL NOT SEE this domain in the first 10 (TEN) pages OF the results.



Yes, I know that the domain can start now and as a 'good name' it can bring something good after a time. But If needed to do it, I would prefer to pay $7 in a new and not porn-history domain.

My 2 cents.

Stop playing games... it has no value SO WHY DO YOU WANT TO BUY IT? I mean, why would anyone want to buy something that has no value or even offer $1,000? You should move on!

I have checked how many .coms are registered with include the term "fitnessgirl" - seems that there are 116, plus over 30 with included numbers. If some of them are developed this domain would be a perfect upgrade for them. 69K seems a lot but for the right enduser it could be worth even more, imo.

Hello guys!

I'd like to know what makes this domain (fitnessgirl.com) so especial that his actual owner thinks it costs $ 69K .
It was $1K one or two years ago.
And I thought it was expensive.
This domain have been used in adult promotion. So, it has not a serious value if you will use for something 'corrrect'.

Is there any way to buy domains in a REAL price? Or the owner can insert the price he thinks it values and you need to wait?

Tks!

that is just ok.. people usually over quote manytimes. I enquired a domain recently and the owner wanted $69k co-incidentally. Apparently it was at godaddy Bin of $3850 which was removed 2 days after my direct enquiry to him.

 

[1Darko]

I'm sure that this fitness girl earned more than 69K

Hi DragonDF !
My suggestion to you:
This forum is full of rich information to read and learn, don't hesitate to do this to get good understanding of domaining !

 

[DragonDF]

Stop playing games... it has no value SO WHY DO YOU WANT TO BUY IT? I mean, why would anyone want to buy something that has no value or even offer $1,000? You should move on!

Do I should move on from where? From this thread?

Can you copy and paste here the SUBJECT of this thread?

Move on you. You need to move on. Not me.

I asked something and I am trying to understand what the owner is trying to do.

He bought something for $777 and is trying to sell for U$ 69K.

I asked: WHY SO EXPENSIVE?

The reply can be:
I do not know.
Because he is crazy.
Because he wants.
Because I do not mind.
Because he does not want to sell.
...
But not.. MOVE ON.


Show you are an expert in DOMAINs and not you have not what to do to enter here to contribute with NOTHING.

Hi DragonDF !

I do not mind.

But I posted here because I thought that people who live by buying and selling domains could clarify the strategy.
I see some (not all) dishonest ones who do not contribute at all.

 

[karmaco]

It’s a good name. I think you are just irritated you didn’t obtain the name when it was $1 K like that guy did.

 

[HotKey]

clarify the strategy

Looks like he's using the "buy low, sell high" strategy, which is quite common among domainers.

Archive.org removes pages on the request of current owner. So that shouldn't be a problem either.

Thank you for triggering so many people with this thread @DragonDF; good read and I learned some things whilst having diner. Cheers

Good to know. Though screenshots aren't just recorded in Archive.org.

I used domaintools to see a few years worth of redirected screenshots. I think NameBio pulled the last known domaintools screenshot, and using the namebio link on page one of this thread, you can see the adult related screenshot there as well.

For general public, archive.org, I assume, is more important. And others should also remove screenshots upon request, imho. If they don't, I don't really believe it would really hurt the name that much. I'd avoid names associated with fraudulent activity, scam etc. Those won't "wash off" easily.
