    That is not an exit plan

    So, Zandy ... "It was a Spanish word derived from Apuesta (Bet or Betting) can any body tell me how to increase the value of the domain without making a website or Blog?" I'm probably going to cheat a little here - you said 'increase the value... without making a website' I'll use some editorial licence and assume that's 'you' not making a website. So I'd suggest you got to Fiverr or Upwork (used to be Elance - Odesk) and place an ad for a web design. A good designer should be able to knock up a simple website in a short time and at a reasonable cost (probably in wordpress). You'll need to decide the theme of the website and whether you will keep it to it's Spanish roots, if you don't want to spend any money, then try tweeting / posting on FB pages or hashtags that contain apues - don't go straight in their and say 'hi I have a domain for sale make me an offer' - you'll very likely get banned - but socialise for a while until the timing seems right then be subtle about it.... see how you get on.

    You can absolutely increase the value of a domain.

    Just get Lady Gaga to start Tweeting the word over and over - your domain value will skyrocket ;)

    No online tool can tell you the real value of your domain. And you can't do anything to increase the value these online tools report.

    If someone wants to pay you $100 for Apues.com, then that's the value of your domain. If someone wants to pay you $2300, then that's the value.

    That's how it works. You need to find a buyer. But you will "increase value" only by making him want to pay more money for the domain by explaining him how good it is.

    I wouldn't advise creating a website. If you want to sell a domain, the worst thing you can do is put a website on it. People who buy domains want domains, not websites.

    You need to increase your alexa rank, google page rank, majestic rating and that..
    Many site valuers do that.

    Can you explain how to do that for a domain without a website please?
    And how are you measuring page rank these days?

    Please show me one recent case study of someone that flipped a domain by merely increasing it's metric values. I will show you one lucky SOB.

    Luck is for slots, not internet marketing.

    If you can get Kim Kardashian to name her next kid "Apues" your domain should be worth at least low $xx,xxx.

    How does that work
    • do people link to domains that don't have sites?
    • when you say build content - do you mean like guest posting on other people's sites?

    Backlinks are effective IMHO.

    How do you get someone to give you a backlink when there is no site on the domain?
