The name is worth zero. It doesn't make any sense. The better the name, the easier it is to explain to a random person. Would a total stranger take this name for free? I doubt it. Would an experienced domainer have this name in his/her portfolio? Nope.
Very few people have the skills to reinvent the language of the world and make words go together that normally don't. These are the types of names you need to avoid....stick to the basics.
Hi,
You're an experienced domainer? Then i guess the whole revolution of domain tv has passed you by ?In case you don't visit dnjournal (you should ,great site) I have provided a link, you should read.I haven't suggested it is better than a .com, it is next best. I haven't suggested it will be particularly interesting about mortgages, but all the big players will need a good domain & relevant. Have a read in full, it will be an eyeopener for you.
I only have one domain of this type & it is speculative as the .net
I have a good collection & am relatively experienced, 6 years of domaining.

I see you didn't get past the first line then, oh dear.
Anyone who knows anything, knows Dnjournal is probably the most respected site on the net regarding domains. Read the article in full. Don't worry about the appraisal, just for the education, which you sorely need.
Nathan Sasson is wildly successful & is transforming the net as we know it. It already is headed toward more broadcasting than information. Hey, both!
People are entiltled to any opinion they like, but not if they don't gem themselves up on what's going on!
Do me a favour, don't post anymore. I would like a balanced opinion by someone who is aware of this type of domain. Have a look around & read the article.
Have to comment on what you say about their domain. If you have never heard of netcasting , & you think worldnetcast is a bad name, then you should stop whatever you're doing now.
There are some jerks on any site you go, but the rubbish that you individually spou on it seems evry post you make is staggering.

I think your missing something. And by that I mean it in the broadest sense.
End of conversation. I wish you well. Keep playing the banjo. :frusty:
That's the beauty of this opportunity. The best .com's went in the nineties. Sassoon had many doubters back then. He held on & the technology arrived including mass take up of broadband which was essential. He regged 1100 domains & sat on them & waited. It paid off.
One example i'll give why it is an opportunity for the future couple of years. I live in a place called Chesterfield in England. I don't know who owns the domains (.co., .co.uk) etc but they will be worth a lot as they are place names, in many places in the world & a type of furniture, which is hugely popular. Our local council, if they had any sense would reg chesterfieldtv.com & sit tight, as many sites (if you check you'll see) have broadcasting sites up & running. For these smaller places , there is no take up just yet. Obviously all the major places & interests have gone. eg. londontv.com etc traveltv.com etc In time all the small place names will go, just like every other domain has gone. For a small place to get the name of their area in a .com or .co.uk would cost thousands now. They could prob get the .com for $9 now . It after all the way things are headed. Not sure where you live dude, but you could do worse than reg just your areatv.com if freeRegards, Guy
Sassover's names are actually all pretty low quality. If he has good development skills or otherwise excels in partnering up with big companies, then that has nothing to do with the value of his domain names, most of which wouldn't be registered by me for $8.

I don't think he'll lose any sleep about what you do or don't do to be honest. The facts are there. You are right about one thing though. Devbelopment is key I have many domains & websites i have developed & am developing. Sitting around waiting for things to happen gets you nowhere. Unless you own top domains for traffic, but it's such a shame. Look at property.com Sitting there undeveloped. A crappy parking page. The options to click aren't even good. Anyway that's another subject Let's put this to bed. I have tried to explain. Goodbye
:boink:
We just have a difference of opinion on what constitutes value. I don't believe you would get a bid if you ran this name through an auction with no reserve. That's how I look at names.
