Google and others search engine will kill the linking as they can.
If some developed website , the linking traffic will be gone empty between 1-2 years.
I think the [Golf.com] had a good type_in traffic, too.

Can not image what price it is.

If Time is buying Golf.com, wait till Microsoft buys BuyDomins, NameAdmin etc.

Microsoft can own the names, take ad revenue away from google, yahoo and other ad providers AND keep all the ad revenue for themselves. TRIPLE win for Microsoft...if Google doesn't beat them to it.

Also, they could start using their Ad center ads on the domains and lure other domainers away from existing PPC providers.

Imagine the BIG BANG of that announcement!

Hello, Microsoft, remember you heard the idea here first!

Waddaya think... a $10 CPM ad rate for such a targetted audience? Probably much higher, but I'm being conservative.
That would be $13k a month in ad revenue from each CPM ad alone, not talking affiliate ads or other incented placements.
$150k or so a year, times 3 years would be $450k from 1 CPM ad...
Then the fact that the name is great to begin with...
$18 million.

Very expensive, its like selling internet.com or www.com - Although they would be worth even more. Most of the dictionary word domains for .com have gone <_<

Don't forget that the visitors to this domain will be exactly the demographic that advertisers love: most people don't play golf unless they have a substantial disposable income.

Clearly worth millions.

As a name, i think people are getting a bit carried away. You see the thing about golf is your earning potential is more limited than many other areas of business in an online environment. Additionally, although golf is a very popular hobby, with a lot of "well off" players, a large no. of players are generally from the older demographic and are less likely to buy online. More importantly, a lot of "golf gear" is hands-on. Clubs and stuff you want to try before you buy, get adjustments, different shafts, leveraged angled heads etc etc, to suit how you play. Golf bags you want to hold, feel the weight, see the pockets available etc.

Thus a lot of the revenue will be in the advertising, and to get advertising, you need a sales team, which has a large overhead.

Yes its worth some, but the real value is at the business end. As a domain name, i'd say $500k tops as you will need to sink a lot more money in to marketing to get the financial rewards in such a "hands-on" game. As a business it will be a multiple of the revenue, perhaps 24 - 36 months turnover or 48 - 60 months profit, at a guess.

They are buying a developed website with 200,000 Backlinks !

Golf.com is saturated all over the search engines..because it's a DEVELOPED website

suggestion tool shows results of 4,000 for Golf.com .. (lets give them 50,000 type-ins)

There are 1.3 million monthly uniques 90% of the traffic is from search engines and links

Dont get me wrong Golf.com if it was just the domain ..is still worth 500K to 1 million range ..but for pure traffic you cant beat the search engines ..that's what generates the revenues for the domain.

For a very very rough revenue estimate .. 1.3 Million views

If we were talking just PPC at a 20% CTR at 50 cents a click =260,000 clicks per month x .50c per click = 130K per month x 12 = 1,560,000 year

A true undeveloped typein domain is going for around 8 times earnings

Developed 3-6 times earnings .. I say the sale probably went off in the 5-8 Million dollar range

very rough ..but probably ball park on it
