domain WinSock.ws

[Jeffler]

I think its a good name.

In computing, Winsock (short for Windows Sockets) is a specification that defines how Windows network software should access network services, especially TCP/IP

Plus, WinSock.WS?

 

[Jeffler]

bump!

Hello?

 

[Phronesis]

Very strong single keywords in .ws only command mid $xxx so I'd have to say it's $0 unless you can find a desperate end-user.

 

[dtr]

Rep added. Anyone else?

 

[Jeffler]

Anyone?

?

 

[MyPGP]

possibly a good "TypeO" for a company that manufactures wind socks for airports. I'd ask a minimum of $100.00

 

[Jeffler]

Actually, MyPGP, its actual meaning will get more then the other I think.

Winsock = 5.7 million on google
Win sock = 3.1 million
Windsock+Wind Sock = about 3.2 million

low $xxx

Quite a nice domain, although I'm not a big fan of the extension. I'd value this as low $xxx with no development. But as a resource website it could go up to mid $xxx.

 

[MyPGP]

The more you use it, the more valuable it will become. Today $100. Maybe in 6 mo. $500.00.

Make an e-mail addy for yourself and throw it around.

How in the world is anyone coming up with $xxx for this domain? Sorry, not to burst a bubble here but no one is explaining how they come up with these appraisals. I think you guys need to do some homework.

Overture shows:
Searches done in June 2006
Count Search Term
1222 winsock

There are only 4 bid results on Ovt bid tool - the highest of which is $0.22/click.
Even the Google results aren't that impressive.

But most importantly, the extension stinks. winsock.com could go for $xxxx, the .net could possibly fetch mid $xxx, but .ws? I can almost guarantee absolutely no type-in traffic which means the appraisal would have to be based on how bady an end-user wants the name. They could still get winsock.cc, winsock.tv or winsock.name all for reg fee if they really wanted it that bad.

A typo is only valuable if it get's traffic/revenue. Thats why typos are almost always exclusively .com - you won't get anyone typing "winsock.ws" looking for "wind socks".

I'll stick with $0, sorry.

It takes more than traffic to make a domain valuable. So let's just say that it's worth what someone is willing to pay you for it. How's that for doing some homework?

Yeah...you like that , don't ya!

LOL - OK tiger.

How long have you been doing your homework?
expecting high returns on a .ws (and .name...) is an endless campaign that in the end, other than miracles happening, is wishful thinking.
the domain has a nice 'ring' to it. Other than that it is worth reg fee IMHO.
Are you willing to pay $100 for it MyPGP?

Sorry, I forgot you invented the world.

No, actually, I just live in it, unlike others...

Thanks for the appraisals.
