    The domain gasprice.com is owned by a close friend, and though he is relatively knowledgeable about back-end coding, he doesn't know much about design and popularizing a website. It is pr3 at the moment, but the domain is pretty awesome in my opinion and has been owned for many years. Appraisals and ideas on how to improve usability, design, and how to spread the word would be nice.

    Concept: Users input local gasprices nation wide, or use information to save on gas. back-end functional.

    A VERY nice, short 2 worder - and very relevant into the foreseeable future.

    Exact google adword search volume: 33,100 monthly.

    Google Traffic: 17 - 23 clicks estimated, $0.58 - $0.77 avg. CPC.

    Considering your development plan, and some other factors, I'd say it
    has a value of at least $10,000 + more once developed.

    Really hot domain. If you go to sedo, i guess u can get high xxx-low xxxx. And if you can build a website and market well you can earn even more. Best of luck.

    Great name. I would easily say mid to high xxxx for the right end user if not higher. GasPrices.com would be even better, but something needs to be done with the name. Good luck to your friend.

    Yeah www.gasprices.com would probably have been even better, maybe they could be interested in buying...? But their site is how it should NOT be done... No actual functionalty as I see it.

    People always want to buy the cheapest... always.. and especially in these times.. that´s why such a website/idea has a chance.

    Not sure the gas companies are interested in that idea...it would increase transparancy for the customers thus creating more competition

    Nice name:) I would develop it and make money with it, myself. You could get $xxxx for it, but might take some work. You can check with Rick at digipawn.com to see if he wants it, or at least get a possible free appraisal.
