Low $xx. I think the singular would be much better (commercial.co).

 

[emjohn]

Good keyword with multiple meanings. Can mean the equivalent of 'advertisements' or can refer to business vehicles or basically anything commercial oriented. i see that 'commercial' might be a little better but it depends if you see the glass half full or half empty. I see commercial.co in the high xxx range.

Reseller mid $xxx
Enduser low-mid $xxxx (but of course there could be someone willing to pay more)

Thank you, guys.

@emjohn
Yes, you're right, commercial vehicles are called commercials as well. In particular, in UK there are a ton of websites whose domains are in the form of KeywordCommercials.CO.uk

@Keith
Low $xx reseller or enduser?

More appraisals are welcome.

 

[the_poet]

BTW the singular is reserved by the registry, so this is the only version on the market.

More opinions are welcome. Thank you.

I think it is worth very low $xxx to a reseller, maybe even just high $xx, though it is a very STRONG 1 word domain, and some resellers may punt $500 on this domain due to the wide end user base.

To an end user user yes it should be worth $xxxx-XXXXX (I think this is a domain that will increase in value with age) There is very high competition for the term commercials.

Commercials and Commercial are 2 different words that have many different meanings.

Commercials is a very widely used term in the UK. The most widely used meaning is that of commercial vehicles and commercials is the word they all use in their business and domain names. It is also used to describe advertisements on TV and possible commercial properties.

I think finding an end user would be quite easy, and I suspect that at auction this domain will do well. It would look very nice on somones business card.

Does anyone else want to leave their appraisal?

I don't see an practical application for this domain. The main issue is obviously the extension. Based on my own research and personal mental algorithm, the .CO will fail and prices will start falling moving forward.

Most people cringe when they see or hear the word "commercial" (as related to advertising) while many cringe when they hear or see reference to the extension .CO. This is therefore what I call a "double cringer".

If this were my domain, I would immediately remove it from my account and avoid the extension in the future. ((:ghost) IMO.

The fact that commercials.com, the org, .co.uk, de, info, net and many more are undeveloped is a sign. You try convincing users to visit commercials.co they will no doubt think of ads which people hate unless you have some brilliant idea for marketing. Hell even ads.com and ad.com are parked why? the cost of developing in my opinion are massive.

I agree widely used term in the UK but .CO is unknown here. Put it on sedo and see if you receive any offers. If you get offered anywhere near $500 Break an arm and take it. When i first saw your domain I thought maybe you can develop a website with videos of funny commercials or something. But an end user will have so many choices to choose from net, co.uk etc unless you can sell to a Colombian company . Good Luck

reseller low $xxx to mid $xxx IMHO

 

[procanic]

I am not A .co enthuiast , But a very heavy Word to be worth nothing? I would think Some advert. agency would be all over the name For $xxx money.
Shoot for End-User..

I suggest that all the people here suggesting the name is worth mid $xxx put up and shut up and make an offer of LOW $xxx.

That said Commercials is a much better UK term and I wouldn't expect people in the US to realize that.

Mid XXX to low X,XXX end user. Focus on UK companies in the Haulage industry, imho. Plenty of horrible domains out there search google for site:*Commercials.co.uk to see what I mean.. hyphens galore

Reseller XX

I disagree "Commercial" is a much better UK term with over 22,000 monthly Local exacts compared to 880 for "Commercials". Commercial properties and commercial Insurance are Big businesses here. Again, selling a .co to a UK company does not make sense and will be difficult as the TLD is not relevant to the UK.
But I wish you good luck.

To Clarify:

Commercials is a much better keyword in the UK than it is in the US.

I could care less about the keyword commercial because that's not the domain in question and has totally different usage.

Reseller: $50-$99
End buyer: mid $xxx on the high side.
