These kind of hyphenated domains seem to be the new 4 char domain..... The real world has no use for 99.9% of them, but some domainers love to trade them with each other.

Sell it before the house of cards falls like we are seeing with random 4 char domains.

I gotta say reg fee for all the symbols and dashe.
But why not a fraternity or sorority site or directory?
a rush week blog or youtubes about partying.

sounds G-R-E-E-K to me!

Low $XX

 

[FusionSpy]

Have to agree low $xx, but you might get luck and score a bit more. Good luck.

I dont see any value, then again Ive seen similar names here going/selling for $50+, I have no idea why, I guess the hype gets to some people... good thing there are such things as bookmarks cause these types of names are awkward to type.

 

[Makis.TV]

i m greek and i dont see any direct value in it
if i was you i would develope it and take advantage of the seo it has on domain and then redirect it to a better one.

Sorry but these type of name are $50 tops. This one very low xx.

I'm the owner of G-r-e-e-c-e.com, and I didn't know that it reaches $50 Check out the auction on my signature.
So I think G-r-e-e-k.com has some value as well, maybe low-mid $xx. Good luck with the domain!

ITS NOT HYPE THESE WORDS ARE RECOGNIZED BY SEARCH ENGINES AND YOU CAN USE IT IF YOU ARE GOING TO DEVELOP. Sorry for caps. If you are going to develop then it is fantastic. You don't have to flip everything.

 

[Tippy]

Its got value to other domainers who have fallen for the hype, non the less its like scrapping the bottom of the barrel to get as close to the real thing...

Even for development, its a poor looking alternative no matter what, I have some names that Im not very proud of too, it happens, I will never develop those names, they will be dropped or given away.

I could prob. handle a 2 hyphen 3 letter word domain but 4 hyphens never. To each their own...

 

[chillaxin]

well its like this nothing is popular until it is popular.. go figure

 

[tommiko]

regfee for me !

I should have added to my post, I am basing my "low $XX" valuation based on comparable sales of W-O-R-D-S that have sold recently.

With the emphasis being on search and bookmarking nowadays I think this type of domain can be developed. Fewer people are typing domain names which is one of the reasons parking revenue is going down. IMO.
GREEK.COM is just the same as G-R-E-E-K.COM in googles eyes. Good seo and good content can see a hyphenated domain do ok. Good luck.

They may be recognized, but they don't have the keyword value of the non-hyphen version.

I'm sorry, but anyone pushing the future of hyphenated domains is selling snake oil.

GREEK.COM is just the same as G-R-E-E-K.COM in googles eyes. Good seo and good content can see a hyphenated domain do ok. Good luck.

I have had legit SEO guys tell me that all the hyphens penalizes the names into oblivion unless you've got linkbacks from high PR sites to offset the penalty. They also said that you can expect to be in the sandbox for quite a bit longer.

Well with back links, social bookmarking, and content you are fine.
