Tend to agree...gives someone with a sub-par domain instant gratification and justification to ask ridiculous prices.

Hit the nail on the head.

It's their other services that I like such as the end user lead generator and the long tail tool.

I think estibot is - now - absolutely worthless. My opinion is that it was much more useful before. The changes they made make it an absolute waste of time for me.

Estibot isn't really good for anything except the search term numbers that it gives, etc. The "appraisal" is, and always has been, worthless. You CANNOT use an automated system to appraise a domain name.

I don't use Estibot regularly but for fun I do check out links.com (which I own). It gave an appraisal of $592,000 which I think is reasonable given other comps. But, of course, any domain estimation tool is going to have its good days and bad.

I'm not so sure. If they would put in enough factors into the algorithm, it sure could come close, like taking into account similar sales. Creating a very basic equation, isn't going to get you anywhere.
