it's definitely regional, but with the pop of san francisco, it's not bad. are there any businesses using that name? it seems like a hotel or townhome community would have picked it up by now. hopefully someone with deeper pockets will want it and not an environmental group

I used to work for a couple of companies that specialized in websites for hospitality companies and it was common for place names like that to be snatched up or even sold and resold even though they weren't high profile.

good luck with that

Thank you.. It is a good name and does get overture results.. Not many but a few...I am sure the name gets hits it self...
I want to sell the name, but I think paper appraisals are over rated... I like the models and prices you all give......
I know location names are hard to find but i dont know the value...

Thanks

Not the prettiest part of the bay area for sure. It's about 10 miles from home for me. $250 to a San Pablo local.

Yes, I would think that the name would of been snatched up, but it has never been registered.. There are still some good names out there....

You really only think 250.00..... That seems low for a name that is common in the San Fransico area.. I live in georgia and have heard of the San Pablo Bay..

Seems that it should go for more.. Anyone else with advice..

Thanks..

The San Francisco Bay is 95 times more popular (according to Google, and local popularity too I would say)


Here's a cool map! The San Pablo Bay is pretty big huh! It just doesn't get any respect. :razz: Look for Pinole around 38 degrees -- that's me!

If you were to sell the name only, I would say about $150.00, but put a developed site on there and it will fetch more. I just sold AlabamaSeek.com for $300, but it is developed.

This is maybe the 8th time I've said it...when searching on google make sure you use quotation marks on the search term to give accurate results. Here are the true results for "San Pablo Bay" http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q="san+Pablo+Bay"

Right on target alldig.

Results for "San Pablo Bay" 9,180

Results for "San Francisco Bay" 871,000

SanPabloBay.com is still a great name for someone to develop.

It's not fair, but even if you live smack on the 'San Pablo Bay', you still live in the 'San Francisco Bay Area'

Thanks RJ and ALLDIG..

Is that still good numbers on google..?

That is considered typ-ins... Right..?

so value would be around $200

Thanks

No, that is not considered type in's. Google phrase searching only gives you an idea of how common the term is.

In this case, the term 'San Pablo Bay' appears on 9100 other websites. Which is decent, but expected because it is an actual location. It's best used to compare to other terms, like we did with 'San Francisco Bay'.

For an idea of how many people are actually typing-in your domain or phrase, you can use Overture's suggestion tool (see www.suggestiontool.com) and put also put up a hit counter on the domain to see if anyone ever visits it by 'typing-in' your domain name.

For San Pablo Bay, the overture searches were 86 for the month of August. Not great, but at least there's more than 0.
