I've recently acquired this premium domain name. Looking for appraisal thoughts at the moment. Here are some facts:

- Pronounceable, 4 letters, with ALL premium letters (no x,y,z).
- Short, catchy, brandable.
- Can potentially be the perfect name for a gambling site.
- Registered since mid 1990s.
- Receives about 70 unique visitors a day.
- Shows 7,020,000 search results on google.
- Has a search term count on overture of 1,745 on Overture without extension. Tons of other search words on Overture that consist of "beto".
- Has a search term count on overture of 48 with extension.
- Just about any other extension you can think of such as .net, .org, etc. are already registered.

I've been told by a few that the domain could potentially be worth mid $XX,XXX. I am looking for more ideas.

www.beto.com

Is Beto a blokes first name in Spain?

Overture 48 with ext.

looks as though 2002 was a busy year for this name as a betting site.

Probably worth 15k to 25k

Who knows?

Is Beto a blokes first name in Spain?

Beto is a name in Spanish.

Beto is short for Alberto (Albert).

I guess an English equivalent would be Bert.

I think this would probably have better potential though for uses other than as a Spanish first name, due to beig short and pronouncable and easy to remember.

I kinda remember this name in the betting business, was known but not too popular.

Anyway nice name.

Freneros, I did indeed purchase the domain for a pretty penny from a gentleman in Cyprus. I think the domain is just awesome and I couldn't refuse. He did have an extremely popular soccer website with the domain name.

Thank you everyone for your thoughts. Anyone else what the name could be worth?

By the way, I've already received a bunch of emails and PM's with offers. I am not at that point yet, though I will probably start entertaining offers in a couple of days.

Thank you.
