What do you think about DoMyBib.com?

    My newest domain/project is domybib.com

    I am developing it into a bibliography creator for students. I want my creator to fit all needs of the user because I know for a fact that other sites are sometimes impossible to navigate, and I can never find the right format.

    Anyway. The appraisal is for the domain, not the site. Thanks in advance:) I will appraise back;)

    If you can make the site get real big with a high pr you can sell it for several hundred dollars. At its current rate just the domain by itself probably less than $100

    ^maybe even thousands if i get lucky.

    Do you think it would be a good idea to go for sponsors in the beginning? because i don't want to put ads on domybib. not yet. Any suggestions?

    The domain by itself? Undeveloped? $0 - reg. fee I'm afraid.

    I think the "do" hurts the domain - mybib.com or mybibliography.com (or maybe bibliography.me :D ) would have been really nice.

    Actually the "do" really helps, because I want this site to do my bib for me. It's easy to remember, and in a very hot, but undeveloped niche. I'd say upwards of $2000, because when developed the site will easily rake in ad money from stupid kids who don't know what ads are.

    You'd be surprised, lol. Many of my friends (the non techy one) can't tell a google ad from a link, and I'm in High School.

    This domain is worth $0. Development would be the way to go.

    When I saw the domain in the title it made no sense but then I read your idea which sounds like it could be useful. So $0 for the domain but $xxx if you get the site built.

    The first thing I thought of was that the site had to do with babies (like, fasten the bib around my neck on the high chair :D )

    what kind of CMS will you use for the bibliography? Mediawiki might work.
