Hi All,

What do you guys think about this name?

Thanks

Search NamePros for "hyphens".

Lots of discussions already about how hyphens impair value. I and others have written articles touching on the subject outside the forum as well.

Considering the niche, i think it would have some end user market, but you need to actively contact them (with no spammy emails, otherwise see goodbye to your sale chances), and price range should fit between $200-300 in order to have slight chances to sell it.

Thank you Matrigaldo.

@ImageAuthors, I will check the threads about the hyphens but how much do you think this name might be of worth since you seem to have good experience with hyphenated domain names?

@DotCom9

I've personally never sold a hyphenated domain that I can remember. Partly that's because I've avoided investing in them overall and have had few to sell.

Hyphenated domains fare best in continental Europe and worst in the USA. Sales occur, but they're very unpredictable. I've seen high-CPC brandable keyword-rich domains fetch as much as $15k or thereabouts. Not this one. And I would advise people NOT to rely on results like that. Any sale is of a hyphenated domain is bordering on fluke likelihood.

The matching non-hyphenated domain is currently developed; so it's worth checking with the owner to see if he'd like to own yours as well. Most likely he won't be interested or will offer very little.

Beyond that, I'm not sure what buyers there may be. Not having checked the search stats, I can't say whether this phrase is in huge demand or not. If advertisers are running AdWords campaigns for it, thy might take an interest. If not, you're probably out of luck.

If this were my domain, I'd probably try to unload it rather than renew. $xx or low $xxx. If it's high volume and high CPC, then you might get mid to high $xxx. Quite possibly no sale at all. Some potential for more but unlikely. You'll need to do outreach.

@ImageAuthorsI hope to prove you wrong though.

I hope you do. Nothing I like better than learning something AND seeing someone else get a sale!

$0 to $500. I wouldn't renew it.

I've sold plenty of hyphens. If your acquisition cost is low (and it usually is with hyphens) they can be good investments. I will say that passive sales are much easier than active sales, though.

This is a weaker term for a hyphen domain though. The preferred term is "credit repair." The distinction is in marketing terms, not in ordinary English usage. That said, seem to be plenty of companies going that route.

The name worth trying to sell. I wouldn't aim high, but under $1000. If you get no buyers, just put it at a mid-xxx BIN for a year or two.

Thanks for ur comments Domainace.. I agree..
