Put them up for appraisal or try Estibot.com

estibot has given some outrageous figures on some domains though.

check estibot and dnscoop, make some price between and divide it with 3 or 5. If it's adult, divide it with 10-20

Forget about Estibot and other automated appraisal scripts. They are good for details (pagerank etc), but that's it.

It's impossible to appraise a domain name, as it's price depends on too many factors (e.g. the buyer), but there are a few keywords you should consider to get an approximate value:

- Search engine results for the exact keyword
- Search popularity for the exact keyword
- The extension (.com, .net, .org etc. In some cases a .org would suit better than a .com, but in most cases not)
- Previous comparable sales (look up dnsaleprice, namebio, Sedo, DNJournal, forums etc.)
- Market spectrum, how big is the niche, how many potential "end-user" do your domain have?
- Pagerank, Alexa rank, does your domain have any traffic

If your domain has traffic;

- traffic quality (is it type-in traffic, search engine traffic from an expired website etc.)
- does the traffic convert? can you monetize the traffic?
- will the traffic be consistent 1 year from now? 2 years?

You should also take into consideration if your domain is a typo or a registered trademark term which will increase the risk of UDRP/WIPO/C&D, hence decrease the value of the domain.

I hope you found some useful information there. Good luck!

search egnine results doesn't have much value. As what peolpe write and what people search differs alot. For example "of trade" got 26,000,000 google results but noone search for that. My domain oftrade.com doesn't have much business value.

In most cases search engine results is a good way of finding out how generic your keyword is. Of course, for multi-word domains SE results might not always be useful, but for single-word domains, SE results is a great way of determining value.

can look at past sales on dnjournal and dnsaleprice.

Estibot? Really Acro?
