The domain name PartyBallons.com sold yesterday on NameJet.com for $4,102 USD, the domain name whois hasn't updated yet and may go under privacy but I am sure it was acquired by a domain name investor on the platform. The domain name was registered in 1999, and I think has huge potential in the affiliate market space but also being able to flip this domain name to a company that wants to own the space for Party Balloons / Party Decorations - The nice thing about this domain name it isn't niched into i.e. Birthday Balloons, Party Balloons can cover any celebration and I personally think at $4.1K was a great buy. What do you think was a good buy? Would you develop it or flip it? http://robbiesblog.com/partyballoons-com-sells-for-4102-usd-that-was-a-great-buy/8452
Great buy. The trademark died in 1988 and was not related to what most people will use this name for. My first step would be to contact a few major chains that sell flowers, balloons / party items and see if they want it. There are maybe 30 potential buyers. The SE vol. is low, but the name is very brandable. I would not develop it. I would just try to sell it. A good end user price would be 25-45k
I own Balloonish .com Maybe, they would like to buy that next. My domain keeps going up...and up...and up and away lol Definitely one that should be developed...the industry must be worth billions and sure, don't we all have one birthday every year. Regards, Reddstagg
Personally, I'd flip it real quick. This domain is one of those investments that would take a loooooooong time to build to only bring a small return, albeit profitable.
I think it is just a typo on the original post but if you click on it you are taken to the correct site with correct spelling of 'balloons'. I'm fairly sure 'ballon' is French for ball...n'est pas!!! Regards, Reddstagg
