I just recently bought the domain diet-help.net - Diet Help, Loss Weight, Diet I was planning on selling this for $100-$120 is this fair? If anyone who reads this happens to be interested pm me

What are you basing your price on... is there traffic? This is a .net so if this it just a domain with a hypehn in it and it not a traffic generating site then I would price the domain at $6.95 which is what I would have to pay godaddy to buy a domain...

If you have more info as to what makes the domain more valuable by all means post it so you can justify your asking price.

Unfortunately Roger is right - that website really isn't going to be worth much of anything unless you can prove that you're getting traffic. It's rare that people are going to type in a hyphenated or .net address to see what's there, and your url isn't coming up on any search engines. You're better off trying to develop the site then selling the whole site rather than just the domain.

Webmaster Tools & Search Engine Optimization Tools - this site has some great tools to check your site's rankings, value, and more. I use to to get an idea of how many link backs I have, how much adspace on my site is worth, etc.

Good luck!

What you would like to sell a domain for and what people are willing to pay are 2 differant things,there are many variations in valueing a url and there also many sites that give you a rough indication but these are more for fun than anything else but here is another one just type in your url at the top and see what comes out dnScoop - Domain Name Value, History, Stats Tool and Forums and i dont have any connection with the site

ooh, that's an awesome tool, I'm suprised I haven't seen it before, thanks Mega.

My site is worth a whole $412, haha.

[rogercbryan]

WOW! I was surprised at the valuations of a few of my sites

The estimated value of Iauctions.com - i auctions Resources and Information. This website is for sale! is: $1,243
The estimated value of Bux Sense is: $3,050
The estimated value of Everything you need to know about auto auctions, vehicle donations, non-profits, and the life of an entrepreneur is: $400
The estimated value of Connecticut Classifieds, CT Free Classifieds Ads is: $826

[meaghannf]

Yeah... I think that site is a little off. I don't think anyone would buy my site yet for $412. I think it places a very high emphasis on backlinks and age, but doesn't take as much of the traffic into consideration. But still, it's an encouraging tool, haha.

As it is a free tool i dont think it to bad,but if you have a very mature site that you have built up over time and generates serious amounts of money and you wish to cash your hard work in,there are sites that you have to pay alot of wonga but you do get a very indepth valuation report back and it does provide exact valuation figures based on many many aspect of the site.

But as 90 odd % of sites are not in that league most people will use the free version
