discuss How to deal with GoDaddy ridicules low appraisal price?

[DrMonk]

I am new to domain selling. I am testing afternic/godaddy, how to do listing. I put a 5 letter dot com name which is meaningful and definitely worth a decent amount. Solit.com sold for $80,000 just 3 days back. So Godaddy is showing $1415 as its value next to the listing on afternic. That would definitely send any interested buyers away. How does one deal with this? Or is there a way to not show that ridicules low price next to the listing. Or just avoaid afternic and use another market place. Thank you for any suggestion.

Afternic does not provide direct option for sellers to hide the "estimated value" next to their domain listings in the public view. The Buy Now price is the public price displayed across Afternic network.

The "estimated value" shown in your portfolio is generally an internal metric, primarily for your information as a seller, not the public buyer.

If you believe in appraisal then you need to go back to school again.

1. all of us when newbies do not reg names that have value above zero

2. all newbies deny 1

3. all appraise tools are worthless shit

4. u stop being newbie when u do not ask appraise tools or others for value

5. alcy is God.

@johnn and @alcy

OP isn't asking for an appraisal. Their concern is that GoDaddy shows automated ones to visitors, a topic investors have flagged in the Afternic thread many times. This is a legitimate concern.

he put topic of appraisals all over the place.. including title


plus his issue is an appraisal made too low for his liking.

so yes.. I'll say his post is all about appraisals.

what he missed as newbie is that 1400 appraisal is probably 1400 more than his name actual value

and that some whatever 5l name selling for 80k has zero to do with value of any other 5l name In the universe.

Thank you so much.

If you put the minimum offer above the godaddy estimated value. It will disappear. I haven't tested it yet but I saw some post talking about it

LOL. I am new to this. my question is do the buyer sees the appraisal value or not?

Honestly, I’ve found that SAW.com gives the most realistic appraisals when it comes to potential end-user pricing — if the domain is marketed properly. However, if they believe a name is worth under $700, their system will just give you a generic “under $700” appraisal, which isn’t very useful.


What I’ve noticed is that when SAW gives a strong appraisal, I can usually market the domain and find a buyer willing to pay around 60% of their estimated value. Their algorithm is actually pretty accurate, but you only get a limited number of quality appraisals per day.


So don’t waste them on mediocre names — save them for your best domains.

Don't use Godaddy or any of their slimy companies.
Don't reach for appraisals, which are worthless/bogus/can lead to theft.
There are no domain name valuation experts. None, zip, nada.

It's a forum, not an echo chamber.

And frankly, Namepros needs a bit of humor since most of the drama moved to Twitter.
