Hello Everyone I just found two domains for my new site. The first is a two word one with a dash in the middle and the second the same 2 words but the first word is in plural (has an s at the end) i.e student and students I went to check it on valuate.com and the one with the dash ranks higher at 700 usd and the other one at 130 or something. Also the CPC of the dashed one is 2.17 USD and the other one 0.05 USD. I was just wondering how reliable is the valuation at valuate.com and any advise on what you think I should do. I am also thinking of purchasing both and hosting the site on the dash one and having the other to redirect for word of mouth ads and for people to better remember it. Thanks
the only explanation I can give you is valuate.com has troubles breaking it in 2 words (or breaks it incorrectly), thus searching CPC databases for a wrong keyword for hyphen-less name Generally the hypen'd domains worth may be 1/10th of regular or less!
Well when I google.. I hardly see any domain name with a dash in top 10. May be my searches are limited to those without dash
