I have never had any -seemingly a non domainer- making an offer complaining about the domain having a registration too recent.. only domainers complain about stuff like that (and other nonsense for that matter)

Yes, there are a lot of factors and it's difficult to generalize across all end-users. If they are buying just on the keyword or the brand name, which is often the case, then age wouldn't matter as much (or at all).

However, if an end-user is comparing brandables let's say on squadhelp, and they find out your domain was registered in 1998, that can be a huge selling point to them versus if it was registered only recently.

You mentioned customers who have already placed an offer for the domain and that you haven't heard any complaints from this sub-group.. but for your domain to get noticed to even get the offer, they may do a whois search and, it could be a huge selling point if your domain had been registered for a long time. Once they've made the offer, they've already bypassed the stage where age would matter.

As a domainer I have made a few purchases of select domains and for me, I feel like the asset has much more value if the creation date is 1997 versus 2019. But that isn't based on anything other than just my perception that other people find domain age to be important.. I would rather have an asset that other people find more appealing.

thanks for explain to me
But I see a difference in some names. When reserving a new name and submitting it to the Godaddy appraisal tool for evaluation, you find the evaluation ranges from 1000 to 2000 if the domain is not registered, but when I see a request, some buyers ask for the name must be GD Value go higher 4k or 10 or more
but this value not in new domains so i think if i buy new domain and i keep renew for some years the value will go higher and it will sold easy When the buyer comes and buys the name it will also be easy for him to sell it because it is not a handreg I concluded this based on what I see in the requests section and some sites

There's nothing wrong with hand registrations. But all hand registrations are not created equal. Some are just better than others. You have to have a knack for handregs for it to be worthwhile.

Another thing with handregs is that sometimes, you need to let some names mature. Imagine if someone was trying to sell CBD names 10 years ago?

Blended hand regs are great...they just need to have some semblance of seamlessness and to be sensical. For me, it is not having too many syllables and for the name to possess phonetic harmony. I see some names that just clash and are confusing. They give me a head ache just reciting or pronouncing them.

Most good names are taken. The leftovers are not so great. Maybe only new technologies are ok

hand regs really work if your 0.1% ahead of the 99.9% catch-up curve.

A handreg is a bit like giving yourself a hand job. If it ever leads to more than instant gratification then someone else is more of jerk off than you.

Disclosure, I do handreg once in a while.

The key to hand registrations is to be on top of current news, technology and developments and also have a reasonable understanding of those fields so you can pick a winner when it presents itself as a viable investment.

It's not rocket science ;)

You want the truth. I have a file of 300 names available. When I look at names here in some section, I see that they are poor compared to the names I have in this file. Most of them are available for registration.
