domain Worth registering on Estibot Value?

[PLRD]

Would a domain valued at $730 on estibot be worth registering or are the results from that tool too unreliable?

It's a .tv extension and is a past-tense verb with .com (valued at $77,000), .co.uk, .net, .org etc. all regged. The word is part of some search terms, but would be unlikely to be searched on its own.

Estibot details:

Frequency (Google) 305000000
in Anchor Text 1400000
in Title 1660000
in URL 724000
Backlinks 0
Alexa Rank Not Ranked
Traffic (uniques) / Day N/A
PPC Ads Score 2
Overture/mo 1708
Wordtracker/day 361

Should I reg it? Would it be stupid to assume it would re-sell for more than its reg fee?

Estibot gives nice information for the domains, but since it is a tv you should first consider how the name goes with .tv extension

if the word doesn't sound good, regging will be waste of money. if it sounds good to you, if I were you, I would take the name.

Before registering you should maybe get the opinion of a human being who knows their stuff.

I wouldn't suggest registering a domain purely on an Estibot appraisal, especially while it's still in Beta.


Good luck

past-tense verb with .com

Probably not a premium keyword...

It's a .tv extension

.tv is not the most amazing extension there is...

.co.uk, .net, .org etc. all regged.

Check out the other extensions. Are they parked/unused or live sites ?

The word is part of some search terms, but would be unlikely to be searched on its own.

Probably not a lot of search traffic to be expected on that one, besides it's not a mainsteam extension.
IMO don't trust automated appraisals but use your common sense (and gut feeling). But I would not reg an 'exotic' extension without development plans. Resale potential is limited when you stray away from the mainstream TLDs.

I would avoid the TV myself. They just don't sell even if they are amazing.

i.e. i have a single word dot tv with 500,000,000 google results. I couldn't get $25 for this in the marketplace. TV is not doing as well as many would have you believe. Few weeks ago I sold one of the very best LLL.tv and it hardly made 1000.

I would also avoid automated appraisals - they are pointless because the values given rarely translate into tangible sales. It is just a phantom figure of what your domain may be worth to the right buyer. Meaningless, cos most of the time we never find the right buyer do we?

And it really depends on the domain afterall, I must agree with all points above, but what's it anyway?

 

[ssamriga]

estibot usually gives a bit too high valuation. I wouldn't make a buying decision based on it.

 

[domainco.us]

so what do you reckon is the right value, 50% of estibot valuation? thanks

Not really sometimes its too much over real domain value, and sometimes it is too low below real domain value. Although I repeat estibot is best for all-in-one place data such as traffic, links stats.
