    1. Length - How long is the name? [3][17][12]
    2. Word-count - How many words? [1][2][2]
    3. Clarity - How well does it describe its content? [confusion with buy, by, bay][government is a difficult and long word to type][in sausage, the "au" is listen as "o"]
    4. Memorability - How easy is it to remember? [bye is easy but TC is hard][too long! i prefer digi.gov because i'm lazy][the colour of the sausage can be hard to remmember]
    5. Market Size - Large, medium or small market? [very small][medium][small]
    6. Market Potential - Is the market lucrative? [poor][medium][poor]
    7. Market Applicability - Does the name apply to the whole market or small portion of it? [very small][medium][small]
    8. Hyphens/Dashes or Numerals? e.g MyDomain5.com or Music-CD.com (loses value) [0][1][1]
    9. Any Substitute Names / Synonym Alternatives? e.g University.com vs. College.com (loses value) [good][medium][low]
    10. Any Abbreviations? eg PPV.com vs PayPerView.com (loses value) [what the hell is TC? [0][0][0]
    11. Any Variations - singular & plural nouns or verbs? e.g. loan.com (singular noun, verb), loans.com (plural) [0][0][0]
    12. Domain extension / TLD? Is it a .com or .co? (more value than others) [.TC = very rare extension][.CO.UK = only targeted for the UK people][.COM = standard]

    bye.tc = REG FEE
    digitalgovernment.co.uk = REG FEE
    brownsausage.com = REG FEE

    sorry.

    thanks a lot for your appraisal sir,
    a few comments over ur appraisal,

    [Confusion with buy, by: no sir, you don't pronounce the word bye like any other word you've mentioned, ask a kid to type in the word bye, 99% would do it correctly]
    [sausage as sosage: duh about 90% of English speakers would type sausage correctly] and its about "how well it describes its content", sausages are brown, describes perfectly, browning a sausage is a task, try utubing

    [bye is easy but tc is hard: in everyday online chatting, the phrase bye tc maybe used million times]
    [digigov is easy: digitalgovernment is a straightforward phrase, people would be rather search on digitalgovernemnt rather than digigov, and theres the buzz about e-governance too]

    [market size for brownsausage is small: i suggest googling the exact phrase, its the fast food industry and sausages are brown you know, even there are two utube vids in the search result page], same with its market potential and applicability

    [hyphens,dashes or numerals in brownsausage or digitalgovernment: are you sure about your eyesight sir? lol]

    Hello asianguy

    .tc and .co.uk are country specific
    digitalgovernment.co.uk is too long
    so their worth is not more than reg fees.

    as far .com is considered it is a good domain and have some potential but it is still useless
    if it is not developed
    so you have to develop it
    otherwise it is not more than reg fees

    1: Try to spell "bye"... it sounds like "buy, by, bi, bay".

    2: Try to spell "Sausage"... it sounds like "sosage".

    3: The unpopular .TC can be confused with the popular .TV extension.

    4: DIGI.GOV is very easy to remember and to type on the browser's address bar.

    5: DIGITAL.GOV = 777,000,000 results / digitalgovernment.co.uk = 66,000,000 results

    6: brown sausage = 5,050,000 results vs dark sausage = 8,310,000 results

    7: if i want to search of sausage, i search for sausage and not by it's colour. To me brown is not a pretty colour. Also i found disturbing images on google images using brown sausage.

    8: digital/government and brown/sausage are domain names with 2 words stick together and they don't look pretty on the address bar.

    9: darksausage.com is available ! someone can grab that one and compete against your brownsausage.com for cheap.

    Trying to sell those domain names for 3600$ is a total joke IMO.

    I can see that your new in this industry.

    lets say 3600 was a marketing trick lol (see hw many replies and views this has got?) ;)
    worth better than reg fee imo

    hey cheat,
    just for ur info "DarkSausage" yields 19,600 results where "BrownSausage" yields 65, 700 results.

    Ok you are saying that digi.gov is very easy to remember and easy to type in to adrs bar than digitalgovernment.co.uk
    So> i guess byetc.com has some value, and according to ur opinion bye.tc should have more or equal value? right?

    by the way its nt about searching about sausages, its about a brand-able name, and people do search about browning sausages, There are two utube vids in the first search page on browning sausages.

    you can hardly mis-spell sausage as sosage coz sausage is an ultra popular and known food!

    Ask someone who knows at least a little English and ask to spell Bye! Buy, bi, by are pronounced as "bi" where Bye is pronounced as "baai"

    Im sorry but non of those domains have been sold for YEARS.

    Also i could sell you painted pebbles for $2000.00

    All to say is that there are good sellers and bad sellers.

    Those domain name will never be sold.
