Is search engine results important to your domaining business?.

What value would you place on a domain name with over 1,000,000 se results in all 3 major se?. What about 9-figures se results?.

Would you buy a domain name with over 1m se results no matter what the name is about?.

Please lend your comments. Thank you.

yes, to see how commonly used a term/acronym may be, what contexts it's used in, and how many sponsored listings there are for it.

I wouldn't put any value on it just because it has 1 mil results.

It depends. But if im going to buy a developed site search engine results are extremely important becuase that means that i dont have to spend a ton of money on marketing but rather i can focus on site content.

Would I reg a name if it has a million google results?
yes I would. But only as long as the name makes sense.

For instance, "On Home" has 2.5 million google results. But I still wouldn't buy it. Why? Because the name doesn't make sense to me. Two popular words used in conjunction will usually give high Google. "In On A" has 2 million google. But its a crap name..

Now something like "Stock Bonus" has a million google. It makes sense too. Its a popular financial term. Would I buy it? Yes. Because the name simply makes sense..

A related question is, Would you buy a name (that makes sense, w/no obvious major demerits) that has low SE results (say, <200,000) but decent-to-good OVT (say, >3,000)? How would you interpret this?

Sounds like a good Niche market to me! It would have to be the .com but I would have to see the domain, but it's most likely that I would buy, if the domain fit the search term exactly, you would be silly not to. 1 in 6 people do direct navigation, so the .com should really be getting 1/6th of that search traffic at least!

Yes, SERP is important to domains business but it's not the whole ensalada, it only plays 1 part, a domainer will also look at the usability of the keyword being positioned, comparison to other tld's, revenue, backlinks, etc.
