Top domain!

Truly unlimited potential for this domain. Very common word, easy to type and very brandable.

I wouldn't sell for anything less than $XXX,XXX reseller, $X,XXX,XXX end user.

it has been a pleasure to appraise this domain,

CVCV at its best. 300k (cafe.com) to 500k (blue.com). How long have you owned it? Ultra cool.

 

[PRED]

How long have you owned it?

Looking at the whois a day?

 

[EarlBarrett]

Hehe yep

Not even sure on traffic. I predict anything around 1000 unique a day.

Cheers

P.S. Just noticed the cafe anagram of face. I guess they're of comparative value?

 

[Creature]

Congrats on the buy.

yeah, rather similar.
Face is a more common word and has more results in google, but cafe is a more commercial term, although I think face is more valuable.

cafe is excellent search word, good for ppc income but face is more common, esp beauty, news industry, $500k is fair.

Great name. But if you use it like facebook does you're asking for trouble. Best use, is adult I would say.

I don't see the problem with using this as a social bookmarking site, this is a very generic term, with no chance of tm issues. Also the idea of using this as an adult site seems ridiculous, the name doesn't seem adult related, and I don't see the point in wasting such a great name for an adult site.

edit: I don't see the relation to word cafe. Think it would be better to look at the value in the word rather than valuing based on "quality of letters".

 

[NameGuy]

I suppose you could use it for a social site, but you are risking a valuable domain imo. Not just facebook, but also trademark on faces.com doing the same thing. Why be one of the crowd? Doesn't make sense. Either could come after you at any time and would have a good case.

As for the adult usage, I feel sorry for your gal, guess she gets no face time.

Revlon, Covergirl or so many others would love this name. They would probably create a line around it. "FACE" only googles 494,000,000. The possiblities are endless.

We see lots of names here to value. Sometimes we get lucky & get excited. Sometimes we get very very lucky and see a truly special name. This is one.
Congrats to the owner on the recent acquisition.
