How do you value a Domain?
Some of you will be aware that at AN, members were able to share with others their opinions on how to value a domain.

With members participating from all over the world all with different backgrounds, these for me became an very valuable tool in my early days of the domain game.

It's true you shouldn't believe everything you read but you can extract the good from the bad and this helps to increase your knowledge of this crazy business.


You are never too old or experienced to learn!

So, if you have your own valuation model, and would like to share this with the members here at DNFourm, then please post your reply to this thread.

wow.. Vialli.. great point to bring up.. ie: reviewing valuation models. I'm posting the orginal only one I've ever used, which is what is posted at Anic. and BTW.. folks can still go to afternic and click the tab 'appraisal's.. it will pull up each member & will allow you to click that members name, an review their appraisal valuation model... so, while that data is still there, some forum members may find it useful to review the various valuation models...
Title: Market Valuation Model
My valuation opinion, will be focused on the domainURL's "Marketing Possibilities". My career history/field in the advertising arena, inspires such an appraisal valuation. The internet is like in essence a non stop 24 hour commercial, and so therefore that which makes an URL/domain truely have any value at all, would be if the domain has the abillity to reach viewers, jump out at them, make them take a second glance.. for it's a highly competitive, broad marketing arena.. the internet that is. So, one must STAND OUT from the crowd. The domain/ URL should have a short slogan, which is profound, rememberable, meaningful, and be a magnet for clicks, even if simply for 'curiosity' reasons for clicking.
Bottom line is, value comes from a domain's ability to GENERATE REVENUE... otherwise, why do we do what we do? Why would anyone in their right mind, build an online business without the motivation of generating revenue.
My valuation will consider the "Radio Recall" factor at 50% of it's total value. Radio Recall.. means when I listen to the radio.. and I HEAR an advertisement, am I able to recall the company name, the URL? Am I going to be able to key the word directly into my browser when I get home, and will I be able to correctly key these words in, with out "2" meaning two.. or to. Without 4, meaning 'for'. Numbers such as this, in place of words, FAIL the RADIO TEST.
I like unique, domains, and my sole valuation will be based 50% on Radio Recall value & 50% on marketability/slogan / revenue possibilities. My valuation will consider built / developed websites as a +, but, truely it's not that valid. The new business owner of the URL, may have an entirely different 'vision' for the domain, or have an idea for the direction it will go regarding how revenue is generated/created.

Pardon me... I do not understand your comments? I am the same person on Anic as I am here... I never held multi alias names.. so what in specific are you referring too?


your cheetah here.. so who were you on Anic?

care to expand on that?

my app's were always fair..

i drew my line on some of the 'names'/url's.. which i thought were'pedifile' type name.. heck ya.. i have a limit, which i believe is acceptable.. and I will stand up for 'right' and i will put the mirror in the face of the 'wrong'..

Got a problem, with someone standing up for what they believe in? Ya know what they say.. if ya don't stand for something.. you'll fall for anything..
I don't go with the crowd.. if it's agains't my grain.. I'de rather take the heat.. and know, i'm standing up for what I believe in..

it's a rather simple concept...

and my 'way's' will not change... no matter what.. i'm firmly planted, in what i believe is acceptable, and what is not..

it's cool.. if you don't like that.. that's why there is freedom..

and it's cool.. if i choose to be what i am.. and believe in what i do..

if we were all the same.. it would be BORING..

Does that ring a bell?

Was it not you that was insulting everyone in the forums?
Was it not you that was appraising domains with insulting commnents for no reason?

If you are not the one that was using the term rat b@st@rd , then I apologize. But if it was you (99% sure), then

GO GET A LIFE

Cheetah you must be fast but you sound slow in the brains. Which post of Wanda's IN THIS FORUM did you find insulting or containing a demeaning remark? If anything else, your posts here starting at #1 are all insulting and attacking someone without any proof.

Cheetah it's you that needs to go get a life buddy.

thanks timechange..

i challenged this individual in 'chat'
but they 'let chat' when i asked for valid post/proof
of what they were attacking me for.

this person.. soon left chat..
no back bone

no support of their acuasations.

and i knew it..

cause i know what i do an don't post,

and their accusations are not backed with
any solid proof..
fore it is not true..

i am not the peson/poster this person claims.

i 've asked for proof..

that's when they left chat.

does that tell you anything?

This thread was meant to be for members to post their own valuation models to help assist other domainers with improving their knowledge of the Domain Name game.

If you want to make accusations towards other members please take it outside this thread and into the 'playground'.

I thought that this idea was probaly my best post since i became a member, so come on guys/gals lets help each other.

Many Thanks

Wanda,

Many thanks for posting your valuation model.

It is nice to see some people are prepared to help others with the expanding of their knowledge.

All opinions are different and it is from this I am able to learn more and in turn will hopefully be able to pass on my knowledge to any newbies that join this crazy business.

So come on guys/gals post your opinion here.

i have nothing to hide..
same today..
as i was yesterday on Anic.

i do not know who the 'cheetah' member is.

i challenged this individual in DNforum chat.. to reveal themselves.. as far as 'who their user name' was on Anic..

that's when they immediately left chat..
they did not want to reveal themselves..

so... that tells me a great deal.. about this person.

hopefully, folks will visit the Anic 'appraisal' pages.. which allow you to review the top appraisal valuation models.

now, while this is still active.. might be the time to visit.. print out.. and have for your own records..


goodluck!
