    The name has zero value. I suggest doing nothing but reading for a few months. Just read sales threads.....maybe even go back a few years and see how the industry has changed. It will give you a better feel for what is going on if you see what names actually have been bought and sold on the forum. There was a time just a few short years ago where lots of money was flying around here. Even then, BabyPuppies.net would have been worth zero.

    The name almost doesn't even make sense. Puppies aren't old......but even if you make a distinction as to the age of puppies you are still stuck with a .net, and since it is a questionable name at best, it has to be worth zero.

    The name will get zero traffic, and it is very hard to imagine that someone would want to build a site on it, so why would it be worth anything? If you took a look at 100 sales threads instead of doing what you are doing, then you would be able to see the actual prices being paid for names.......you will soon find out that a lot more names are worth zero than most people think.


    People used to appraise names of low value by saying "Reg Fee", but I never understood that. If something is worth $8 why is it not worth $18? The answer is that they appraised the names too high. The answer should have been zero all along.

    To me, a name is worth zero if you couldn't sell it in a thread right now for $10. I don't think that if 20 people here saw this name for sale for $10 that you would get a sale.

    The days of relatively new domainers coming up with stuff like this and thinking it is worth something are long gone, especially a .net. Keep it simple and don't try to get too cute. It is still possible to hand-reg good names, but this is not the area you need to be looking at if you want to have success.

    Good luck. I am only being harsh because you need to know that names like this will ruin your life. It is a big waste of time and money.
