google's keyword tool gives 1000 exact searches for [vampire wallpapers], 2400 for [vampire wallpaper].

What value would you put on it developed like geekwallpapers.com is, or undeveloped? I've made profit on my other wallpaper domains, which all have lower traffic estimates than this one. (Particularly knifewallpapers, which gets 100 visits per day even though google estimates only 100 per month, and geekwallpapers which gets 300 per day even though google estimates 880/month).

Feedback appreciated. Cheers!

Traffic is one thing, but converting wallpaper traffic is terrible. Even if you have thousands of visitors the revenue is minimal. Undeveloped $xx, developed $xxx.

You seem to be doing something right, so I think you're perfectly capable of making some $ with this name.

All this hype about twilight and such makes vampire a great keyword.

Undeveloped, I would appraise this at $250. You'll be fishing for PPC clicks while footing a bandwidth bill for people downloading the images, but this is no lousy name.

tetrapak - thanks for the comments. You're right that conversion is poor, but development is quick and easy so I expect to get out what I put in!

I've written a PHP script to automate renaming and sizing of images for wallpaper dimensions, as well as producing the wordpress markup I use, so adding a new wallpaper takes about 5 minutes; just writing the description and finding the image takes the time. So with that kind of time investment, I don't need it to convert well. It also means I get a nice bespoke developed site which isn't at all spammy. And I like to think that I provide additional value in providing multiple dimensions for users.

grcorp - thanks :D Yeah I think vampires are a hot topic at the moment, and will probably stay that way for a while, which is nice. I really should get on with developing this one. Re: bandwidth bill - unlimited hosting is a great thing!
