Wanted: Domain Appraisal GolfTrolleys.com

addz123 · Jan 10, 2012

Can anyone appraise this domain GolfTrolleys.com for me?

It receives 3,600 local, 4,400 global exacts.

electric golf trolleys also receives 6,600/5,400 global/local so it is very keyword rich.

I put up a number of pages on the domain planning to build the site, but I may just sell the domain if it's worth enough.

Thanks.

I love golf so when I first saw this I thought it would be best selling it in the states, but it looks like the global exacts don't come from there... When you select US as the region in the keyword tool, there's only 110 exacts, maybe because they use the term golf carts.

So I guess if it's a UK specific EMD, the value should be based on the fact that it's not quite as good as a .co.uk (but not far off and would suit a commercial venture) and a pretty good CPC of £1.61 though I think an affiliate avenue would probably be much more lucrative.

End user: £700-2k, trade £300-£700

I'm usually a little low with my valuations though....

Nice domain - worth developing.

The .co.uk sold at Sedo auction for £1,601.

Was a few years ago and there were only two bidders involved though, but shows perhaps a rough estimation.

They also don't seem to be paying a lot of attention to either onpage or offpage SEO - No H1 tags, no SEF urls etc...

Should be relatively easy to surpass them so I'd dev it too..

Thanks, didn't know that.

I originally planned on developing it, but since then I developed another similar product affiliate site (with similar keyword traffic in Google), eBookReaders.co.uk, and overall it hasn't been worthwhile - at least compared to the CPAs and revenue from my financial and gambling affiliate sites.

I don't want to make another mistake like this.
