I would really appreciate some informed appraisals on this .cc.Thanks.

Matt
 
I think $50 just because the keywords is so strong. Who knows though it could work.
 
Great keyword domain, but the extensions obviously lower the value a whole lot. $xx.
 
Wow. I am not sure why so many members of this forum give out such lowball appraisals. I don't get it.

If I were you, I would go to Great Domains.com and they WILL list your domain and they'll probably appraise the domain @ at least $8,000 (with a reserve set at a lower figure.)

I somewhat agree with AmCy on this one ... This is a great domain even with the .cc extension, Im not sure about being worth $4k but I would appraise at High XXX to Low XXXX.

Good luck
 
Me being a dumbass.. but how would you develop this name?

And yes, taking another look it may have a lot of value.. try placing it on the Feature List at Sedo.

70918 on Overture for Prescription. Could be on to something.

And then again, its a Keyword Name with an extension for the coco islands.

I have Wireless.FM which is a keyword domain, but really suits the extension (Radio etc).

All keyword domains may have value, I suppose its how much someone/company are willing to pay for it.

(I should win member of the month for this reply :blush:)

The people or organizations who have agreed to market their country code TLD alternatively so as to generate registrations have given domain owners a lot more freedom with regard to domain names. The .TV corporation is probably the most salient example. Origianlly, a simple country code TLD until entreprenuers approached the government of Tuvalu and convinced them to allow anyone to register a .TV name; they then started marketing it as "brand you or your company using the most recognized two-letter symbol in the world—TV." Go to ABC.tv and ask yourself is this is working.

It's the same with .CC. Used to be cocos only but now open to all. Anyone with some imagination, therefore, can market the TLD in a way to add more value to the name. So far, I've seen Chinese Corporation and Country Club but hey: the dictionary is the limit! One could market Prescriptions.cc as "prescription.cheap, cheap." Maybe not the best idea :huh:, but give it some thought and eventaully a very catchy combination of words can be found.

Another example is the .WS TLD. The "dot website" connotation is catching on slowly but surely. You'll see :-D check out cars.ws.

Hope you know I'm sat in the corner crying now. I got flu and don't deserve such an intelligent answer.
 
I appreciate everyone's posts.I too thought that maybe,just maybe, a company could make the .CC part work for them in a marketing sense.The best abbreviation I've come up with is Canada's Choice or Canadian Choice.
.CC is under the radar just enough where I think a company could get away with using the extension that way.

.cc works well for credit card websites as well.

Exactly. It is a perfect fit for a credit card brand. No doubt.

not to dispute or disrespect ... but abc.tv forwards to abc.com (well to abc.go.com - part of the GO network) i don't think i've ever seen abc.tv on any of their commercials - it's always abc.com, but i have seen some cable channels use the .tv

and

no vc backed, serious site out there uses link exchange. the person who owns cars.ws has put alot of work into that site and cars.ws is a great keyword, but every link on that site goes to seriouswheels.COM, although none work ....

i think all these alternate country code domains are risky, but prescriptions is an excellent keyword and could sell for x,xxx to the right buyer.
 
I agree with others that this one is really hard to appraise. The keyword is great, but the country code sux. If you hold out you could get a buyer in the $xxxx range, but you may have to hold out a very long time. You could try PPC in the mean time, but the rates for "prescriptions" and "pharmacy" seem pretty low right now most places.
