I don't know why people still make comments about type-ins on these tier 1 alt ext names? Doesn't everyone already know there are very few url-bar type-ins for these and it does NOT matter. These names are all about search bar type-ins, keyword quality and appreciation.

I wholeheartedly concur :cheesy:

I own a small portfolio of POETRY domains (28). I just paid $3,500 for three poetry domains names. I have one of the largest poetry web sites on the internet doing about 7,000,000 page impressions a month (LovePoetry.com).

The 800 pound gorilla of poetry web sites is Poetry.com. It does 10 to 20 times my traffic. It makes millions from "vanity publishing." It is owned by Watermark Press - a pre-internet publishing house.

Frankly, I wouldn't know how evaluate Poetry.info. I assume its type-in traffic is almost zero. Of my 28 poetry domain names most get zero type-ins and all are .com. Poetry.info has competition from Poetry.(anything) unless it carves out a place for Information only- about poetry. Not a lot of money in poetry information, though.

Maybe make a website that offers to evaluate a poem for a price. (Labor intensive)
There is a "Poets Marketplace" book out and it has a lot of "stuff" in it but that would cost a fortune to reproduce.
I have “The New Princeton Encyclopedia of Poetry and Poetics” which is about as large as an unabridged dictionary. I described that to indicate the massive job it would to include meaningful Information about poetry on a website.

I think $500 is not unreasonably low and $5,000 is not unreasonably high. If the higher number was proffered the prospective buyer would most likely have a long term plan to develop it with static content and possibly sell services or insert straight advertising. One nice thing about poetry is the fundamentals change little over the years.

For myself… I don’t know. I seldom buy non-.com domain names… and I have enough for now.
