How much do you think it would gain on price if I develop it?

[UPDATE]

Im in dilema here.. Not sure what shall I do with WebWanted.com. I need a WebHosting domain, and started thinking that this one might be good. I cant decide, should I try to sell it or use it myself. If $100 is all I can get for it, then I rather not sell it, since I think its worth more than that. So the main question is: Do you think this domain is good for a WebHosting business (my own) And how much is it worth if I decide to rather sell it? Thanks.

I don't think so. The old rule says that you have to have a "you attitude" in doing business, or what advantage a customer would
have if using your business/service.
Note all the (good) ads that have (you) "achieve", "get", "earn" , etc. approach. Everything that says "we are" or "we need" generaly doesn't interest a customer.
In that sense webwanted.com would be IMO bad choice for providing hosting services. Try to find another application keeping
in mind above mentioned rule.

Maybe a service for domain names owners who could provide site development or so.
BTW good name.

Thanks Option, great stuff. I totally agree with you, i just had this idea: "Become Web Wanted" or "We will make you Web Wanted!" or something like that.

Thing is, its not easy to find a decent hosting name nowadays.. I`ve had few offers recently, but most of the names are just too long IMO, and 3 or even more words. Im sure they could make a good SE results, but they aint brandable, and hard to remember - they are pretty much just keywords bound together.

How about: CentricHost.com ? It still describes the host, so it doesnt follow the rules youve stated, but thats the best I could find among unregistered ones till now..

I have to be a bit more clear. Of course, a name should describe content or purpose of a site, nothing wrong with that.
But in some cases, like yours, it would be inappropriate to say:
"I need your sites and you are gonna pay for it".

CentricHost.com looks pretty fine to me too.

I know it should describe the host, offcourse. But it should also be something that makes one think: thats what I need, thats what I want. Any Ideas on a name I should use? thx

I also wouldn't give much value in this. As a "hosting" name it
is not appealing at all. Maybe something like "Webs4U.com", gives
an impression that I'm getting something.

Try something else...

Not a great webhosting name, but has some value for other sites. It's worth more than $100, as I'd probably pay $300 or so myself if I weren't overloaded on names at the moment. How much higher it could go is anyone's guess.

Thanks NameDropper. I agree that it has higher value than $100, thats why I wouldnt consider selling it for that low. I rather develop it myself.

PS: CentricHost.com has been just taken. What a team spirit this forum has, ha? eh..

Sure, you waited too long. Someone gave you enough time to think.
CentricHost is a good name.
I have a few names from my list which I will probably never register as I currently have no hosting intentions. Maybe you could use one of them, all are first class IMO:

hostsublime.COM
warmhost.COM
wealthyhost.COM
parexcellencehost.COM
hostparexcellence.COM

Options: I asked for oppinions on CentricHost - Only one received. I waited some more, in order to decide, but this guy, whoever he is decided to take it instead of me. He didnt even care to comment, so dont tell me this is perfectly understandable.. Maybe from the crooks view, but definately not from mine. At least what he could do was give some feedback as I requested. I dont se any.. Eh, its over now anyway.
