Do .US domain names fetch good re-sale values?

    I didn't realize that there was this form... Please see my original thread here about the [.US] domains that I have:

    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1146969

    Basically, I was wondering what the re-sale value might be for these domains (they're 3 years old):

    bigprofits.us
    jfkjr.us
    justmoney.us
    majornews.us
    headlinestories.us
    placesintown.us
    lotterymillions.us


    Any Advice would be great!

    you can use namebio :D

    I like bigprofits.us :) mid $xx :) same for justmoney.us (but the prob is .com is for sale so it will be very hard to find an end user, this will reduce the value)

    jfkjr.us
    majornews.us
    headlinestories.us
    placesintown.us
    lotterymillions.us

    reg fee for these

    Thanks for the input... mid $xx sounds pretty good.

    I suppose if the others were developed (with backlinks, traffic, etc) then they'd fetch something decent (like $xxx or even $xxxx), depending on how developed, yeah?

    what's namebio?

    ffjamal, from what I've seen, the .us domains that generally sell are single keywords...
    that apply to the US market. The one's you've listed appear to have some development
    potential, but little inherent value.

    In case you don't know, you can use Google's adword keyword tool
    to see what your phrases' avg. search volume is:
    https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

    Make sure it's set on "Exact" search... a minimum of 1K monthly searches is generally
    what is considered at all worthwhile (at least from my experience).

    There's also Google's Estimated Traffic tool:
    https://adwords.google.com/select/TrafficEstimatorSandbox

    Best of success.

    Hey Grunt:

    Thanks for the useful advice... Especially the 1k searches in google. I knew about the search tool in general but didn't know what the minimum was.

    cheers
