domain OLAP (dot) org - famous acronym

[rocka]

Hi everyone,

what's your opinion on OLAP dot org?
Quad premium, highly pronouncable, famous acronym.

Google results for "OLAP": 5.270.000
http://www.google.de/search?hl=de&as_qdr=all&q="OLAP"&btnG=Suche&meta=lr=lang_en

Overture/month: 7648
Wordtracker/day: 426

OLAP is the well-known acronym for Online Analytical Processing, a method of analytical information systems. It is a key technology in the field of Business Intelligence.

Thanks
Rocka

Noone?
Imho this is a premium domain considering the wide use of the acronym and the extension also fits pretty well..

But I'm not sure about the value of premium VCVC.org's and whether I should develop or not. I think se-optimized it could generate quite some revenue.

Suggestions?

The .org hurts it a little but it is a really nice domain. I cannot value it but I would not let it drop.

 

[rocka]

Thanks Diabro!

Anyone else?

I think being a technical word, its difficult for most to evaluate it. Nice domain though
I would put it up for "Offers wanted" to check the value.

All premium vcvc.org starting with "o" (though "o" would seem to be a good fit for org, it was the last of the four all premium vowels to be bought out) -- since the class is "sold out", I'd place the current reseller value at $15. The price should stay at least reasonably stable or grow somewhat (2x-3x) in value over the next twelve months. That is, depreciation of the domain as it gets closer to renewal should be less than its rise in value. I would not be surprised if all-premium vcvc.org garnered $40-50 price tags within the next 12 months.

Any additional value would have to be driven by traffic.

Good luck.

Thanks Krossat and jagusa!

I think it's worth much more than a standard premium vcvc.org since it has 6 million g-results, good overture and wordtracker and is actually a known term (acronym) that is pronouncable..

More thoughts?

 

[rocka]

Can I have some more thoughts on the domain taking into consideration:

- 5,170,000 google results for "OLAP" (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q="OLAP"&btnG=Google+Search)
- Overture/month: 7648
- Wordtracker/day: 426
- very well-known acronym
- key technology in a high paying software industry (databases, oracle, etc..)
- quad-premium vcvc / pronouncable
- fitting extension
- all major TLDs taken, almost all ccTLDs and even minor TLDs like .name, .eu, .asia, .tv, .mobi and .us taken

?

Thanks
Rocka

Bump

and please look at the listed facts.. this is not your run-off-the-mill-randomly-put-some-'premium'-letters-together-and-find-2k-google-results-domain.

It's a widely used technical term and has a market.

I don't want to know what nkgl.org is worth, which would be a standard quad 'premium' org :lol:
(No disrespect to the owner of said domain)

Please fellow knowledgable domainers, give me your opinions, appraisals, whatever.. but base it on the given facts ^_^

Cheers
Rocka

Based upon the information you've given and comparable sales I'd put this at low-mid $XXX.

The value is in the brandability. The recent comparable sale I compared it to was VOIP.org which sold for $18,500 on 8/21/07 on Sedo.

VOIP has an overture/month of: 337969 & Wordtracker: 3882

Additionally, OLAP is a niche term - not known by the "Average Joe," and the .org extension does not fit the desired usage IMHO.

 

[rocka]

Many thanks GF for the thoughtful post!
Rep added!

But one question, wouldn't it be more around up to 1/10th of the comparable sale when putting wordtracker counts side by side?
I understand databases are more a niche market.. but also a very good paying one..
Though I believe the voIP one was an end user sale..


Others?

Taking all those items into consideration, $15.

Are you serious?? So it doesn't matter whether a 4 premium letter domain has a meaning or not? Does it really not change an org-domain's value when it has 426 wordtracker/day, 6 million google results and all other known TLDs are taken plus it can be considered a generic??

You know what databases, SAP, oracle, Informix, DataWarehouse and reporting is? It's a multi billion dollar business that all kind of organisations have to deal with.

Not every domain falling into a certain category like premium VCVC.org starting with 'o' has the same value, mate..

Your appraisal is like when somebody that doesn't know any english word appraises the domain good.org at only 15$.

I like the name, mid $XXX for sure. Could even get more.

Cheers

 

[rocka]

Thanks wmarais, I think so too! repped

Yes.

The meaning and acronym power of your domain does not add much to its value.

Does it really not change an org-domain's value when it has 426 wordtracker/day, 6 million google results and all other known TLDs are taken plus it can be considered a generic??

Your domain is not a generic, and resellers nor the public would consider it such.

You know what databases, SAP, oracle, Informix, DataWarehouse and reporting is?

Yes, and hopefully they will buy your name. However, the appraisal value includes the potential versus risk of a reseller being able to sell the name to a solid end user. Also, have you weighed against the existing similar registered trademarks on your domain?

It's a multi billion dollar business that all kind of organisations have to deal with.

Sure, and if they want a great name, they are likely to seek a better one.

Not every domain falling into a certain category like premium VCVC.org starting with 'o' has the same value, mate..

You're right. In your case, the premium vcvc.org class is what makes your domain the most valuable.

Your appraisal is like when somebody that doesn't know any english word appraises the domain good.org at only 15$.

Sorry you feel that way, as I was trying to help you.

The problem for this domain is the .org. If it were a .com you'd be in much better shape. My suggestion - develop it!

 

[rocka]

Thanks to both of you for your input!
I agree that .org is not free of issues in regards to capitalization, but there are many examples of successful (money making) .org domains.
As there's no trademark like 'olap' standing on it's own (without a trademark in front of it), I don't fear tm issues.

What's better for any organization dealing with online analytical process than aquiring the name itself with an established extension? :hehe:

jagusa repped.. GF, I couldn't rep you a 2nd time

 

[rocka]

I investigated a bit more on OLAP...
Actually to me it's as much a generic as DVD or HTML or LCD.. only that it's pronouncable like a word and not as much known to the public, but a generic never the less.

There are businesses already interested in this name plus 18 ppc ads on G.
It's parked with sedo right now.. it's doing not bad with uniques and clicks. 4 days ago I got one big fat 6.25 euro click ($ 9.44) on it, that's almost the proposed reseller market's $15 :lol:
