Hello there, I am offered to buy the biology.net domain by the current holder - how much do you think it's worth? I plan to build a research portal for biologists on it, but I'm not sure if another domain name wouldnt do the trick for far less $$$. Thanks!
If you want to be the default portal for biologists with an easy to remember name, I would keep the domain. If you don't see yourself getting around to building it, sell it. That domain would give whatever portal you put up instant credibility.
Oh I misunderstood the original post... he is wanting to buy it. I would say 10k is a fair range as well.
i'd say biology.net would be worth more than biology.com .net signifies a community, which would be what a biology portal would be, a soruce of the latest news, articles, research, etc.
Ultimately it's worth what someone would pay for it. I would pay 7k for it and I don't have a biology background. I'm sure to someone with a degree in biology it would be worth the 10k or more. My degree is in geology. I would pay 10k or more for geology.net without giving it a second thought.
