I have a domain that is 8 years old and has a PR of 2. How much do you think I could get if I sold it now? Should I try to increase the page rank first?
How much old is the domain is not matter. It's PR and traffic is matter. Any way your Domain is 8 years old means you had registered for your own business. Then why you want to sell?
You probably wont get much for it sadly. Someone posted $40-50 tops, well that's what I would go for. The domain isn't very good in terms of what it needs, so whomever buys it will need to do a lot to make it a high PR and so on.
$13,282.27 on url appraiser.net $25 on valuate.com $ 0 on domain values .com Amazing Here is a useful link to valuing domains http://blog.domaintools.com/2011/01/domain-valuation-how-to-value-a-domain-name/ I guess the lesson here is that your domain is worth whatever a buyer is prepared to pay The trick is to be able to find the right buyers. I dont know would some one interested in the ancestry niche might be interested Low google search volume and a paltry 50 cents per click so sorry it isn't worth much to an Internet marketer Competition is very low so you might make some money with some sort of authority site with 50 plus pages targetting 50 long tail keywords
It's not an area where you'd expect to find a buyer. Not an easily monetized domain - even if you put up a nice informational site with Adsense, what could the ads show that would get people to click? You'd likely only be able to sell a domain like that based on its age and pagerank and those aren't all that impressive.
thanks for all the helpful feedback... im learning as I go clearly. hopefully someone will be interested in it. i liked the name, thats why i bought it lol
its very long domain and 8 years of been online yet only pr2 does not help either good luck anyways..
There will always be demand for domain names however wacky or unusual they are, try and increase its PR first though
It depends on how much time and money you will put in increasing its PR because it's probable that later you won't be able to sell it for a big amount and your efforts to increase its PR could cost more than you'll get for it.
i thought the name would appeal to the growing ghost hunting niche. I dont want to spend too much time making it, but will probably build it up as a site a little first
You could pretty easily put up a simple website with some ads as well as a contact form about selling the domain. My friend Bill Myers does this all the time for the many domains he has. You might as well put something up there as long as you have it. You could check out Bills site for some articles on what he does with domains. His site is bmyers.com.
