One other note today, Francois Carillo, who
operates the popular domain news aggregation site, Domaining.com,
has rolled out two more free domain-related sites that
you may also find useful; ClosingAuctions.com
and Valuate.com.
ClosingAuctions.com does just what it says, keeping
track of auctions that are about to close at the
industry's top venues. But it also adds value with color
coded bars for each domain indicating whether, in the
site's view, the name at its current price represents a
good deal, is at least interesting of should be regarded
with caution. Value
is also at the heart of the Valuate.com offering. Enter
your domain names and this site will return a variety of
statistics for each name as well as their appraisal
value for each domain. As I have said many times in the
past, I put very little stock in domain appraisals -
regardless of whether they are generated automatically
or manually by human beings. However, it is still
entertaining to check out the stats and values returned
by Valuate.com to see how closely they mirror your own
guesstimates. |
