Would like to sell: shoeshop.co.uk

I'd be amazed if you got �10k for it undeveloped from anyone other than a committed end user, but I think it's a good name.

Another way of looking at it is that if you can get it earning a couple of hundred pounds a month or more it'll be worth a lot more than �10k.

Seems like a no-brainer to me.

bloody hell do you live near takwa because there must be something in the water supply....�200 a month = �10000

ty buy some from me please

retired_member13 · 21-01-2010, 01:32:39 PM

�200 / month profit (ie after all costs including content maintenance etc) = �2,400 per year on a generic domain that has it's own inherent value?

�10k would only be 4 years earnings, and 3-5 years is pretty standard I'd have said for an earning generic that's SERPs driven - more if it's earning purely on type ins.

�10k would only get you �100-�500 in interest depending on where you had it.

That CookingGames.com domain was sold at 8 times annual earnings, so �200 a month on that multiple would be just short of �20,000.

I'm not saying it's worth �10k undeveloped, but I think any profitable business has an inherent value, be it a domain or something else.

I tried to buy security shop a while ago and they wanted about 10k from memory, I ended up buying securitystore for less than 1K.. Not sure if this helps you though!

Just started domain names and I am trying my best to learn. I have a few domain names that I would like to sell. I valued clubwine.co.uk and it came out as $3,000. Can you really get that much? And if so, how? I would really appreciate some advise, I was thinking more like �xxx

GreyWing · 30-01-2010, 04:15:28 PM

wineclub.co.uk is maybe a low xxx domain but clubwine.co.uk isn't unfortunately imo.

You'll probably learn like the rest of us over time that the only valuation that matters is the one with an offer attached.

I think shoeshop.co.uk is a cracking name. I don't think the owner's being unrealistic with his expectations. If you're a shop selling shoes then they don't come much better. Depends if you need the cash - it's likely that someone on here would give you half of what you want. They would then wait for an end user to come along or develop it and make far more.

Should take it to domainlore and see what happens

Nigel · 30-01-2010, 10:15:58 PM

Perfect, hah... All joking aside it would be good to see it there. It probably wouldn't be good from a sellers point of view (esp since he wants 10K), but it'd be interesting to see what it'd reach at domainlore. About 3k perhaps?
