Hi guys, what do you think about this name ? Does it have somevalue or do you think its better to develop it ?

Thanks.
 
It's better than most of your other names, but the
problem with this domain is that the term "solicitor"
is practically unknown in America... and "DUI" is,
similarly, seldom used in the UK.

So, you have a name that is trying to 'cover all the
bases', so to speak, but fails... miserably.

I prefer not to keep using his name, on appraisal
threads like this, but the value is 'Reggie Fee'.
 
Driving Under Influence and solicitor is english word used in Australia for Lawyers/Attorney, You was thinking about USA, not America, well USA is not the ONLY market in the world, well use google dui solicitor and see what happens...it's also .com domain and I am sure it's value is much more than just regfee :) But thanks.
 
Global monthly searches for the term 'dui solicitor';

Exacts = 0
Broad = 0

Now, whilst search metrics aren't everything, there really does need to be some signs of life...I think Brian1234 was being generous in his valuation.
 
Well googling "dui solicitor" returns around 16,500 results and it appears from the results that the term is used in some cases. As such I would say there is development potential for the domain.
 
Thanks guys, please where or how can I check searches of domain name ?? I am newbie. Thanks.
 
You can use the Google Keyword Tool
Be sure to check the box on the left that says 'Exact' and uncheck the others. This will return the monthly global and local search requests for the exact term.
We can see that 'dui solicitors' returns global and local searches of 12 (very low indeed) and 'dui solicitor' returns none. Based on this it appears that nobody is actually searching for the term and that must be taken into account when determining whether or not to develop a domain.
If you don't check the 'exact' box you will get searches, in this example, for either 'DUI' or 'Solicitor' - obviously this is not the result you are after and it is a common mistake for people new to the industry.
Remember though that the keyword tool is not the be-all and end-all of traffic. It is possible to register domains with very high exact searches that will still receive no traffic. This is because you still have to rank your domain in the search engines for that term - it is, however, easier to get a higher match if your domain contains the keywords of the search.
 
Thanks, and please whats the difference between exact, phrase and broad ? Thanks
 
We'll use the example 'yellow sponge':

Broad: will return results for 'yellow' or 'sponge - eg either or both words can be included in the search phrase - example 'yellow submarine', 'sea sponge' - these both class as a match
Phrase: will return results where the words occur together in the search and possibly with other words - example 'show me a yellow sponge' or 'a yellow sponge lives in my bath' - these both class as a match
Exact: will return results where the words occur together and only together - example none of the other examples will return a match, people will have to search for *exactly* 'yellow sponge'

Hope this helps.
 
Thanks, it really helped, I am learning day by day more and more about domaining.
