Hi fonz,

These are my estimates (though I'm sure the other members can also give further input):

shareprice.org: $25 - not too great of a domain; though it's two words, the .org really doesn't make sense; hard-to-remember

shareprice.biz: $35 - IMO, the .biz makes more sense here, even if it is less common. I definitely think this is worth more than the former.

stockmarketprice.net: $45 - This is a great domain! If it could only be a .com, you'd be getting bids up to $300! But having a .net domain isn't too bad, except that it might confuse some people.

guiltiest.net: $40 - Again, like stockmarketprice.net, a great domain, but since it's a .net, I can't say it's worth as much. Anyway, I can't imagine anyone wanting a domain named "guiltiest", except someone with a personal blog, so it's not worth as much (i.e. the big businesses aren't going to be betting on your domain).

tremendousgifts.com: $35 - Great name for a gifts site, but a little bit too long.

graba.net: $20 - This domain is my least favorite. First of all, it's a .net, which reduces the value of it. Also, it's hard to see that it's really supposed to mean "grab a". I mean, I didn't figure it out until I saw your explanation.

thanks for the valuation

i think grab a could be branded well

I like graba.net (although it would be better as a .com).

Have you thought of setting up a domain name reseller program from dotster or something on it? You could really brand it well as: 'Grab a dot net!'.

I like both the shareprice ones, but with all the domains I agree with Conker, they would be worth much more as .coms.

No idea of values, though, but thats my personal opinion.

'Grab a dot net' would probably grab a lot of peoples attention. I think they are all good domains, but I don't have much expertise in this field. My dad does all the domain stuff in my family.

**fonzerelli_79** · 10-12-2002, 06:39 AM

yeah .coms are always much better but the odds of getting a good .com are getting slimmer each year

Hi fonz,

I agree that there are a lot of things you could do with graba.net, though I must say it's hard to figure out what it means at first. It's relatively easy to remember, though.

thats a really good suggestion, but it would be better if it was Grab A dot com. you can make a domain registrar site.

**Darkfire001** · 10-12-2002, 12:25 PM

Yah thats a good suggestion to make graba dot net. I think there are okay. The .Net's really detract from them but the names are good. Perhaps you should try picking up some .US's? They are supposed to be worth 3/4 of a .COM within 2-Years and there are still alot of good ones left I am p***** that I didnt pick up some very good ones when I could have but I got some okay ones like Videogamer.us. Only bad thing is its at least $17.00 for one with 2-Year Deal.

buying and selling domains is avery good business i see.

**fonzerelli_79** · 10-13-2002, 07:15 AM

i cant get a us domain as im from the uk

but godaddy are selling them for $6.95 so you should maybe try and get some

**david** · 10-13-2002, 11:07 AM

Personally I don't think the .us domains are going to ever be as popular as .com. None of the other country-level domains have been. Personally I think you would be better off buying a uk domain if you were going to get a country one.

I think that .info and .biz are going to be more popular than .us, but will never reach the level of .com. They'll probably end up being similar to .net domains now.....
