I'd like to get some appraisals from the members of this forum on the name
Social.com

This is the 6 letter dictionary word.

Some history on the name:
I registered the name in 1995. In that year, I was using the name for a web site I called the Social Cafe. The Social Cafe was Cool Site of the Day on Jun 22, 1995

In October of 2006 the name was out of my possession for a couple weeks until my Registrar at the time, Namesecure, was able to recover it. It is now at Moniker and I intend to put it up for auction in early 2007.

Your kind opinoins are appreciated!

hi there,
i'm pretty new to these forums, thought i'd give you a reply.
just curious, have you had the name appraised by one of the paid services? it might be worth the few dollars to get it done. it will give you a ballpark figure to aim for at auction (or set a reserve price with it).
i think you have a great asset there. i am no expert, but i think if you don't get at least $15,000 to $20,000 for it you are being robbed! i think you are in good hands with moniker. good luck with the auction. is it the one on march 8th in las vegas? just curious, because i might try to get a couple of my domains up for sale on that one.

Would be interested in what it eventually sells for

I think I have enough appraisals from the forums that I posted to, but I thank you for your suggestion. The auction site for Social.com has not yet been finalized.

It is a catchy and short one for which people run around to find such domain names. I’m sure it will get you a good amount.

it's a good domain to spend money

This is an excellent domain name.
I would say the price will be $50K+

Good domain name. It will give you some good money , for sure. Maybe thousands..

Thanks. What I'm really trying to figure out is the type of enduser that could best use the name.

This is such a wicked domain that has massive potential. I would have said do something similar to MySpace with it though. You could earn a load of $$$$$

You should actually keep it. Develope your own social networking site. Then when it gets big sell it off to myspace.com

I am very interested in buying this domain. Contact me @ jake.rupp@gmail.com or post your e-mail so we can speak more about this.

Further, the budget for this purchase is something of no concern. The money is available.

That was before my grandfather was born, in Internet time.

But like everyone else said, you're sitting on a chunk of gold.
