$0. Who are you planning to sell it to?
It was obviously only registered because of the popular YouTuber.

You want to say that 30,000 monthly Google searches with 1,11PTP mean nothing. For flash games website?

Also low competition, i think that you mostly selling domains, right?

It is worth nothing because of an obvious trademark issue.

PewDiePieGames.com Will promote his channel, it is useful for him, those trademarks mean nothing, if you know how play game.

First he doesn't have a TM, then when I show you he does you say it means nothing.
You seem to have all the answers.

Best of luck.

Do you will close your fan website?

So you have 1 potential buyer, and if he says "no thanks" then what?

Other buyers? Think about people with money - businesses, commercial, domainers, investors, etc. Now think how many "serious" domain name buyers will want such a domain/website considering what the niche is and the trademark issue.
The rest of the potential buyers are fans and kids, and are likely not domainers so would choke on their fizzy pop if you even suggested more than $xx asking price.

He owns 'pewdiepie.com' so why would he want an even longer one? I could likely go reg loads of similar names with "games, gaming, gamer, gamez, etc etc etc", does that suddenly make them all valuable? No, and that also means yours is not valuable.


Additional warning: Reaching out to the person with the trademark will appear as you bought it to monetise from that person, which strictly goes against the trademark etc and so they'll raise a UDRP get it from you for free (+ some court costs etc).
And if you laugh at that, thinking it's just 'some gamer', go to his official site and click the "terms of use" and when you see you are redirected to "Disney", maybe go run and delete this name before their lawyers email you ;)


"Bright idea" names (especially with a trademark) are not worth your time or money.


Good luck :)

Why he wants to close my website if i will promote his products?

The risk of anyone voicing an opinion he doesn't want to be asociated with is reason enough for him to UDRP
imho

Companies spend millions+ on advertising, marketing, and branding. These things are meticulously thought out, with professional website content placement, and even down to psychological experts advising when to advertise, where, how, etc etc.

So they don't want someone giving the wrong impression of their product ;)

But this is now moving away from domain appraisal and onto something else entirely.

So solution is creating website better than PewDiePie.com to create even better impression.

And attract all traffic? Making it better and thus more valuable than pewDiePie.com? Then he'll have to buy?

Trademarks exist. UDRP is not to be ignored. People lose domains, and get sued. You are in the potential category to have the domain taken from you, especially if you try to:

  1. Reach out to the user with the trademark (shows bad faith and UDRP will likely go against you)
  2. Use the website in any way related to the trademark
2 above is hard to avoid in your case as you have their name, a name which otherwise doesn't exist on the internet, or in real life. To buy a domain name with their name means you are buying their name and likely won't be able to argue "Oh sorry I was buying it for something else".

You have already publicly stated you want to do these two things. Honestly, the solution is to get rid of the domain. Delete, ask registrar to remove it from your account as you made a mistake.


http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/guide/#a

WIPO said:
What types of disputes are covered by the UDRP Administrative Procedure?

According to Paragraph 4(a) of the UDRP Policy, the UDRP Administrative Procedure is only available for disputes concerning an alleged abusive registration of a domain name; that is, which meet the following criteria:

(i) the domain name registered by the domain name registrant is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the complainant (the person or entity bringing the complaint) has rights; and

(ii) the domain name registrant has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name in question; and

(iii) the domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith



The domain name is worthless to anyone, so coupled with the above risk, why not just get rid of it? I'm not being nasty, I'm just trying to save your time as you won't sell this name, and save your a potential law case.

Go search this site and Google for "UDRP" etc.

Good luck.

Do some reading around this site and others, see sales figures at Namebio.com, and see what names are selling and for what prices and then invest. You're just going to lose money with "bright idea" domains like this. Buy something useful or decent in some way without piggy-backing someone else like PooDiePie.


Some good reads for you:

Why even ask for an appraisal when you're obviously an expert? Just delete the domain and ask for a refund if still within the grace period.

Sorry mate, you pretty much got yourself in a difficult spot with this domain. Based on search volume u provided and that it a low competiton niche..you going to have add some content and implement an SEO strategy..in HOPE that PewdiePie might buy your website. I don't think he would be keen on having a website that he has NO control over using his brand. I mean you could decide to start promoting penis enlargement creams with banner ads on the website... It would obviously discredit his brand to be associated with stuff like that....I'm just using that as an example... the point is that it's a bit risky for him having a website out there that could harm his brand. If I was him I would insist on taking ownership of the domain seeing as it is trademarked.

You best option would be to approach him and say you are a fan and you bought the domain to setup a fan site but then you found out it was trademarked...so you dont want to cause any problems and then ask him if would like to Joint venture with you and you setup and manage the fan site. ....I think thats about the only chance you have
