The appraisals are pretty much worthless and very goofy at times. For research I once posted a fake appraisal of a e-commerce website I own from my other account that generates about $5,000 a month for the past 2 years and here were the responses "Reg Fees", low x,xxx,
Appraisals are for the domain names only, that's it, especially if you do not include other (important) factors such as traffic and revenue. You can register a 60+ random character domain and the domain itself would be worthless *but* if you develop it and build up the traffic and revenue then the SITE itself (domain included) is worth a lot more. There is a huge difference between a domain appraisal and a site appraisal.
Some where platinums and exclusives which by the way do not be fooled by the title it means nothing on this site,
Actually, they do. This shows who is more serious about their business. Platinums and exclusives upgrade their memberships to sell their domains and other services. Exclusives have forums for themselves where they can ask questions in private and have them answered by other exclusives.
(No, I'm not saying that golds are not serious about their business, but golds are more likely to be here to learn and read, platinums and exclusives are here to also conduct business which is the main benefit of upgrading to platinum.
