Today: Different domaining business models / The Appraisal of ZdFox.com / Appraising Chiol.com / and more…

Here are the new discussions that caught my eye in the domain community today:

Evaluating ApparelBay.com – When it comes to evaluating domain names like ApparelBay.com, do you think it has a practical use in today’s branding world? What’s it worth?

Appraising Chiol.com – This is a short five-letter, pronounceable, brandble, .com domain, but will it fetch any interest from a potential end-user? How much value would you say it’s worth?

The Appraisal of ZdFox.com – That’s an interesting looking two-letter-acronym + three-letter-word, five-letters-total, .com domain, but is it good enough to have some liquid value in today’s market? What would you appraise it for?

Different domaining business models – As we all know, every domain investor does things slightly different than the next one. Take a look at some of the different business models some domain investors use, share your own business model, and compare notes.

ImproveIt.com sold for $12,503 – That’s not a bad domain name sales report for a nine-letter, two-word, .com domain for five-figures. Do you think it should have sold for more or less than what it sold for?
