Share your top methods of analytics type-in traffic.

Don't know what other category this would go in, but type-ins and appraisals kinda go together.

List how you would evaluate type-in potential.

Mine are:

1. Google Search Tool # Searches (Not Traffic Estimator). Set to Exact Match. Ovt blows.

2. Google Search Tool # Searches Broad Match. WITH TLD.

3. Compete.com Traffic/Spy Fu Organic Referrals. If Compete traffic is higher then organic referrals estimate, then the domain gets type-in or link traffic (referring domains)

4.Domain w/TLD in quotes. Not a great way, but get a rough idea.

What do you guys have?

I follow the same route. I also add these to the mix...for potential and ad bid pricing.

Past domain name sale prices
Google SKTool bid
