Domain Value
 
We own quite a few domains lol.

But I am thinking of selling one of our most prestigous domains.

Its a 2 digit domain .com.au

I wont say the domain, as its not really relevant at the moment on here.

In Australia:
Google search for these 2 digits ( numbers no letters )

5th from 81 million search results

In the World

9th from 7.9 billion search results

So.. what value would you think this domain has ?
I have toyed with approaching Sedo for an appraisal, but are there better ways?

Any help appreciated, Ste

We have owned the domain for over 5 years ( does have a site attached )

TNCclubman 04-28-2009 09:06 PM

if it were a 34.com or 34.au it would be worth more...

34.com.au isnt worth anything really...

TimberFloorAu 04-29-2009 02:02 AM

Okies thanks.

Hornstar 04-29-2009 05:11 AM

all names can have a market. Depending on what number you have can depend on how big it is here in Australia.

Its only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
No demand then no money.

Cheers Gerry.

Its a high demand Domain, the Australian Government tried to buy it off me about 6 months ago, but I refused their 5 nearly 6 figure offer.

I think its worth 6 figures

TimberFloorAu 04-30-2009 05:44 PM

Thanks for the replies, none of which answers the original question.

The wiseman advice will undoubtedly be handy at some point, for printed toilet paper :D

Thanks for the info on 34.com.au , I have no idea why you have given us that info lol. As this isnt our domain

Andrew johnson 05-03-2009 02:18 AM

You're asking us to assess the value of a domain without even telling us what it is. That's like asking us to value a car or house without ever seeing it. This post, and your naivety in it, makes me rage.

You need to go on the chill pills dude.

Your analogy is also as crude as your insults. ! Please dont hijack peoples threads for moral gain.

It's nothing to do with moral gain. It's a silly thread, and it seems you have only made it to boost your own ego about something you have of value. Whilst you're here however, perhaps you could value you my sports car. It's about one year old with only 1000 miles on the clock. Other than that, I'm not going to tell you anything. I can only hope that the valuations of my sports car as a generous as the valuations of your domain :rolleyes:

TimberFloorAu 05-03-2009 08:54 PM

Is consultant an anagram ?

:D

The initial thread is asking a general question on the value of a 2 digit domain name.

So yes it is i suppose like asking the value of a house, however the key points you are missing are:

1. domain length
2. domain is australian .com.au
3. domain is numeric
4. domain age

So I dont see any ego trip occuring, only the fact your rattled, and acting like a spoilt child.

In fact from the above its quite easy to ascertain a value based on the factors given, and as this is the community lounge and not a "my domains better than your domain" discussion, I see no basis in your accusations.

The basis of any commodity is supply and demand, and what the market is willing to pay. However when you have something unusual, so ... please not let us discuss the "analogy" of a sports car.

This in fact is a 2 digit domain, perhaps you are not aware of the scarcity of these. Added to the fact its a TLD , but is Australian, also lends to the argument you dont know the domain market, esp Australian domains, which are tied to companies ABN.

If the domain was www.im-a-consultant-and-web-developer.com then it would be quite easy to ask the foillowing:

1. domain length over 30 characters
2. contains hyphens

So I really dont get your angle mate.

If i said I had a domain named after a well known cat food, would that indeed help you contribute in a more positive manner ?

I think not

Lynne 05-03-2009 09:03 PM

OK guys, settle down. Let's get the thread back on track......

TimberFloorAu 05-03-2009 09:07 PM

Thankyou Lynne ( apologies for meandering )

My angle is simple, it's that no-one can possibly assess the value of your domain without knowing it. For example, 69.com is most likely worth a hell of a lot more than 96.com. Take two guesses as to why ;) I just can't understand why you would have posted the thread other than to show off that you had a big value offer on your domain. The fact is, you're asking people to make a blind valuation.

Please excuse my previous posts, I get rattled easily these days :down:

Okies, well.

Forum Rules on here are quite simple, no self promotion, which I adhere to.
This being a good venue for forum and site owners, who dont just do sites to make money seemed like a good place to post a thread, to get a general feel for domain values.

Had I gone onto a sedo type forum, I am sure I could have been more specific, but the site/domain are a business site, so we dont want to advertise the fact it may be for sale. Even as a silent listing.

Unfortunately it isnt 69.com LOL

Its a .com.au and they are inherantly hard to sell on, when compared to .com As we have to provide actual details as to the viability and usage of domains based on business etc.

All I was after was some very general thoughts.

post what it is and let us help you tell you what its worth. Stop being so evasive.

Lynne 05-04-2009 02:23 AM

Perhaps google the subject. Here's one result: How Do I Determine a Domain's Value? - WebProWorld

He is following forum rules. Self promotion is not permitted.

Thankyou Paul and Lynne.

I dont see any positive outcomes or additions to this thread, maybe its best to just close it.

Regards Ste
