Code:
Traffic:
Weekdays: 600 - 700 uniques per day
Weekends: 250 - 300 uniques per day
These are probably 99% typos for the plural - correos.es (the Spanish Postal Service website).

Any value has to take into consideration the likely TM issues of messing with a government agency. Worth maybe 12 months of traffic $ to a domainer.

I wouldn't be too hopeful of an email company getting onboard this one.

You obviously don't know much about the domain business...

correo = mail = generic d:)

correos.es or any website/company would have no chance of winning because of the generic nature of the domain. Also correos means "post office" not the plaural of mail "mails", so the two domains are clealy generic words that in fact mean different things

Also, FYI, traffic comes from over 40 referral URLs, with no one accounting for more than 5% of the traffic.

The problem is Rob that .ES treats some registrations differently. Check out Article 2 of the .es Dispute Policy . The pdf is in Spanish, but this specifically gives government agencies and public bodies like the postal service, more power to recover their (or confusingly similar) .es domain.

These are powers which the standard .com udrp doesn't have. The confusingly similar applies to use inside Spain, not just wether it is a generic dictionary word.

IMO it would be tough to convince a one man, govt appointed panelist, that
www.correo.es and www.correos.es are not causing confusion.

Sorry to take the shine off your appraisal thread, but I see this as a possible tm typo, albeit with high traffic, and very slight end-user options in Spain.

You may prefer to see it differently, but that's the nice thing about appraisals...

If you share the monthly revenue CTR etc etc you might get a better appraisal.

I disagree, correo isn't a typo but a generic word with a different meaning to correos.

I guess we'll just have to agree to differ – thanks for your input though :)

Thanks valid,

This is why I originally purchased the name, to run an email service. I think there would be a lot of demand for such a service on this domain.

I purposely didn't list the PPC revenue because I don't agree with the methodology of appraising generics based on multiples of PPC revenue.

Correo is not even close from being a typo.
Very generic word.
******
Traffic Details/CTR/Revenue are very good metrics of a domain value (but not the only ones) , it just depends what side of the fence one sits , if you had great CTR and Big revenue ...beleive me you will be telling us , it seems to me " we " (and I am including myself) domainers wear 2 hats .
*******
Good Luck.
let us know when you develop it.
