domain florida9(dot)com appraisals please?

[Ollie3000]

I just caught this domain - I think it's pretty good. Originally registered back in 2002. Easily brandable as a group or club or business etc

Also could represent the Florida's 9th district which includes places such as Orange County etc

What are your thoughts on this?

 

[ben pedri]

I don't like it I looked up other numbers and other states numbers and even other keywords with numbers ,not too hard to come by ,the only thing it has going for it is age ,and the old owner seem to have just let go and dident renew

Ok so the top universities in Florida right? Is there a market for a website advertising these?

 

[NamePrime]

Sorry but I don't see a value in it unless the number 9 has a special meaning to Florida. Otherwise, what its difference with florida8.com?

 

[Ollie3000]

I get what you're saying, I just think it has a nice ring to it. Florida2.com is on Go Daddy for £42,741.68

 

[NamePrime]

Yeah, but then again florida8.com and florida11.com are available to reg.

But don't let it go without trying. A lot of naysayers can go wrong. Go ahead and make a pitch to whoever you think end users are

 

[Ollie3000]

Yea I did see those, I went for this as it was dropping though.

I'll have to think on that - I suppose that's the issue with a snap purchase

Also to add that 9 is a very significant number in chinese - meaning eternity/longevity and associated with the Emperor. So I would think chinese american market possibly

I'm not sure. I think they all would advertise for themselves. Now if CFB ever realigns to a very regional conference model the Florida9 does have a ring to it.


What I would do if I were you is Id look up the 9 best poker players that either live or play in Florida. Maybe they can start a page.

The 9th district as you mentioned.
9th circuit if one exists for courts!
9 different orange types?
9 things that make Florida great.

 

[Ollie3000]

Thanks @Want2learn i'll have a look into those.

 

[Ollie3000]

Anyone else have any ideas on price etc? As i mentioned before florida2.com the domain is for sale for £42,741.68 on Go Daddy.

The letter nine is very significant in chinese, meaning eternity/longevity and associated with the Emperor, who had 9 dragons on his clothing etc.

bump

I can see the value in 2Florida..... as in go to florida... go2FL (if avail).... but no value in Florida9.... unless someone wants an affiliate tracking site for florida tours.

 

[maksimfa]

Best value.... since it is aged.... part of private blog network.

 

[maksimfa]

Just checked its stats... really no backlinks to it at all, no value besides age.

 

[Ollie3000]

Thanks. I did check the stats first etc just liked the sound of this one. I'll probably sit on it for a while and then put it on sedo

It also might of been hacked in the past... One of the referral anchor texts shows "defaced by"...

Also remember that this should play absolutely no factor in how you valuate your own domain. I could go list every domain in my portfolio for $1 million each at GoDaddy. Listing prices don't matter, only selling prices, and even then you should have more than one or two to use as comparison.

 

[Ollie3000]

yea thanks, I do appreciate that. This one was just a snap purchase from the drop list. I liked it and still do, just not sure what to do with it yet. I could put a £42k price on it, knowing it would never sell but I'd rather either flip it for a small profit or put a website on it and pull some traffic.
