closed PCStore.ws - Appraise please

What do you think about this domain (bought it about 30 mins ago)? How much is it possible to sell it for?

 

[TopNames.com]

well, I have never been able to sell a .ws and I have a great one (URLS.ws)...so I'm not a big fan of .ws domains...

$0 IMHO

 

[domains1357]

Damn... is it that bad?

Thank you for comment.

 

[Wot]

I have just turned down a high three figures, yes US $, for a .ws , should I go to the 'LosersForum.com" and not collect $200?

 

[CoolHost.com]

"Damn... is it that bad?"

Yup, most likely! And, like TopNames, I think I have (had) a pretty good ".WS", as well (WebSpace.WS) ... want it??
Good Luck.

Than you very much for replies.... i never tried to sell a domain before so this is my first test... i'll put it on ebay on monday for a 3 day auction (putting there right now is pointless because of weekend)... hope that you are wrong.

 

[domains1357]

btw, if domain was .cc instead of .ws - would it be the same or better/worse?

I would also guess you will get no bids for this domain on Ebay. .ws is next to impossible to sell. Same for .cc and the other third world tropical island country codes.

"btw, if domain was .cc instead of .ws - would it be the same or better/worse?"

Yup, ".CC" are even worse ... YOU actually have to pay the buyer to take it off your hands, it's in the .CC selling agreement (in very fine print)!
Good Luck.

Coolhost - would you consider $DNF for webspace.ws ?

 

[Tippy]

Arn't there more people surfing on the weekend? I have a few .ws myself so it will be interresting to see how well your Auction does.

Thanks,

I like it! "PCStore.ws"

The .WS kills the resale value but if the site is developed into a PC Store then it's a WINNER.

$10 asis

> Arn't there more people surfing on the weekend?

People do surf on weekend, but i'm planning to advertise it a little bit in appropriate newsgroups and other appropriate locations and try to sell to business people - those people prefer to get away from their work on the weekend so the best time to reach those people is during the workdays. So i'll start auction monday morning (european time).

Thanks for non-skeptical post

PcStore.ws, were it a .com big $.

It's still a good name for a low-level tld.
A trick I've seen used by webmasters for seo's is subdomaining
a good keyword L-L tld , like this......

ie: "pcs.com.pcstore.ws"

A developed site could bring revenue.

Good Luck

"Coolhost - would you consider $DNF for webspace.ws ?"

Thanks for the offer, Beatz ... but considering DNF Bucks are currently worth only (approx.) .012/per, and with your 3,897 = $47.00 (real money). I'd CONSIDER $470.00 (U.S., of course)! Thanks, again.

Host you just said .ws wasn't worth anything - now you want to charge poor Beatz $470 for one!

You let go of the Christmas spirit awfully early this year!

"Host you just said .ws wasn't worth anything - now you want to charge poor Beatz $470 for one!"

Hello?? WHERE did I say that .WS "wasn't worth anything" ... precisely?? I said it was 'most likely' bad. That .CC was even worse. I may have implied it, but I never said it. Plus, it IS Beatz we're talking about here (I'm just kidding, Beatz) ... Thanks for your e-mail. Good Luck (and yes, still Merry Christmas to all!)

PCstore.anything is very bad choice. Even .com have no more than 500 type-ins a month.
There are 4,000,000 pages with "PC" & "store" in it!!
OT says 543 searches for "PC store" in November.
One of the worst ratio's I have ever seen.

 

[beatz]

$470 real buckeroonies for a .ws?!
No thanks.
