domain SantaClous .com

A typo of SantaClaus.com.

It's been parked with Namedrive for a few days, here are the stats...

Sat 2nd- 50 views- 10 clicks- $2.12 revenue
Fri 1st- 33 views- 10 clicks- $1.48 revenue
Thu 30th- 27 views- 6 clicks -$0.56 revenue
Wed 29th - 40 views- 11 clicks - $2.31

Obviously it will earn more nearer christmas, (and less in the summer :p )

Any ideas?

Thank you

Enuffy -

If you can provide traffic stats for a full month period or more, you may be able to recieve 8-10 months of revenue from traffic stats. $300-450 - But its relative - have you always had this parked or did you only just recenlty park it?

 

[nu-money]

Thank you for the quick reply,

It's only been parked recently..

... you may be able to recieve 8-10 months of revenue from traffic stats

Sorry, but i don't understand the above sentence. Can you rephrase it?

 

[Spade]

Im sorry , let me clarify. If you are recieving about $45 a month in parking revenue, a buyer would opt to pay you 10 months worth or revenue (10x$45=$450). That is how typo/traffic domains are usually bought and sold.

1k+

1k+

Im sorry for picking on you Avensen, but would you please explain why you appraised this domain name for 1k+ - I think without any kind of reasoning your valuation doesnt hold much water, wouldnt you agree?

Oh ok, thanks

I assume it will earn a lot less than $45 a month after christmas, especially in the summer. Do i'll have to tell the buyer the average revenue per month from the whole year? Or can i cheat and say it earned on average $45 a month Oct til January?

1k?

Want to buy from me then? :p

Well, with proper keyword optimization this domain should make $200 per year (and possibly more if parked elsewhere).
5 years of revenue is a fair price for such typo of a generic term.

So which keywords should i optimize it to? And where would be the best place to park it?

If you know anyone willing to pay 1k for it i will sell it now.

Thank you very very much

I'll keep you updated whether i make anymore $.

Thanks again

 

[nu-money]

Third Opinion?

Can i possibly get another opinion?

Thanks

:santa:

 

[DeST]

If I were you I would just keep it, as it won't sell for much but it will make you an income and pay for itself. So keeping it would probably be your best bet plus it would give some time for some one to make a big offer on it.

 

[nu-money]

Thanks DeST, i wasn't planning on selling it soon anyway, (unless i recieve a good offer).

Any more appraisals are welcome.

If anyone is interested in this domain please PM me
