Howdy NP Members:

Anyone with significant experience and success marketing LOCAL domain niches?
(e.g. BobsLandscaping.com)
(e.g. DallasCosmeticDentistNearMe.com)

My question is:
Is it realistic to be able to sell these for a minimum $500 or higher?

I have searched for historical domain sales pricing at the following... but not found much:

dnsaleprice.com/SalePrice.aspx
domainsherpa.com/domain-name-sales-history
namebio.com
sedo.com/us/resources/market-trends
domaining.com/topsales
estibot.com/sales.php
research.domaintools.com/buy/sales-history
domain-prices.com
verified.domains/how-to-view-domain-name-sales-history
instantdomainsearch.com/articles/aftermarket
domains.google
hongkiat.com/blog/selling-domain-names

Thank you in advance for a prompt and detailed response.

Positively,

~ Alan

This:

DallasCosmeticDentistNearMe.com

no ... because it is not the exact geo, whereas this:

DallasCosmeticDentist.com

Then maybe. They are going to have to be good exact geos to sell for $500 or more.

BobsLandscaping.com is good :) Maybe $xxx for that one.
The other is too long and just something people search on google. Not good as a domain.

These guys already answered your questions pretty well, but just to add to it:

With geo domains you generally want something that is Geo/Place + Industry/Job/Service/etc + .com. Adding in the "near me" or other words along those lines doesn't help any and makes the domain worthless. The only time i could see is if it were a NON-GEO domain - like PizzaNearMe.com or something.

As for domains like BobsLandscaping, it's an area of brandables I tend to avoid. You are really limiting yourself to landscaping companies owned by "Bob". This is even more restrictive than GEO domains and can mean you might be sitting on it for a while. For sure, "Bob" is a much more common name and thus easier, but I don't really like buying these too much as they often sit until I drop them. But I do agree that it could sell for $xxx if you find Bob. ;)

Hope this helps!

Hi,

I have some experience in Geo domains and normally if I get an interested company, we find each other in a low $ xxx price.

I tend to take a quick sale over a long negotiation where I might lose the lead, as I normally have smaller family businesses as leads and a lot tend to not spend too much on my names.

Normal names I would have are:

CityRoofing.com
RoofingCity.com
CityLocksmith.com
LocksmithCity.Com

You get the idea. Maybe with other geo domains, you get bigger companies and $ xxx is much easier.

svede and tvanrijt:

Appreciate the details and insights regarding your focus.

I have been in diligent study over the past 60-days... and have reviewed so many resources, articles and courses that to develop a cohesive picture of all the territory I've covered... I've had to create a MINDMAP in addition to archiving all details in Evernote.

I also have invested considerable time building a research foundation based on the following:
  • Keyword Research
  • Market Research
  • Competitive Intelligence
  • Search Intelligence
  • SERP Intelligence
  • Trend Intelligence
I am out of the STUPID phase... through the RESEARCH phase... and now just beginning to enter the MARKETING phase... reviewing many strategies.

From a simplified Business Plan perspective... I desire to develop a medium-ticket, low-volume domaining model... with an initial transaction goal of $500+ and initial monthly goal of $10K... with the requirement it be sustainable and scalable.

BTW - I'd be very willing to share my MindMap with any NP Member who PM's me with request and contact info... with an interest to think tank and talk out loud. ;)

Positively,

~ Alan
