i have just reged wozop.com and .info i am looking to develop into a social networking site. Just wondering if you guys thought that domain may hold any value on it's own?

If not no worries as I am looking to develop anyway, i think it is quite branable and easy to remember? Thoughts?

develop...reg fee name otherwise.

I don't believe i've seen any 5L non-realword ever make any money based on name alone.

Yahoo

 

[theinvestor]

Yahoo is worth something today not because of the name....but based on the company.

 

[sashas]

Yahoo is not a non-word...

Thanks for feedback.
So general opinion for name as i thought reg fee. I am happy that i bought it to develop and think wozop is catchy and would be delighted if i could get a 0.001% of yahoo traffic.
Having said that the name it's self has no real value undeveloped a got an email this morning asking me to put a price on it(the .info not .com). Weird??

 

[Varlin]

Weird! Sell!

 

[rambo3]

yeah weird he is asking about .info and not .com

 

[theinvestor]

Rambo,

Ask him to make an offer for it...and if it's good enough...you can bump it up by including the .com.

 

[hina]

Probably an end-user who doesn't care that ".com is king".

Just sell what he wants (the .info) and keep the .com

Hi Guys

I got an email off a guy saying he was interested in this domain, he was asking for me to set a price. I did he came back with a lower offer(obviously), then asks me to get an appraisal to make sure he does not over pay. Here is where I get a bit confused:?:, he approaches me, ask me to set my price then asks me to get an appraisal to make sure i don't rip him off. Surly as the buyer if he thinks that I have over priced he should be the one to get the appraisal or am i mistaken?

He also gave me a like to a "forum/blog" where he as asked this question.

It's a scam to get you to pay for worthless appraisals. Run for the hills. These scammers are all over. Their letters mostly sound a like.

Good detective work. I always google the return address, name & company as a standard background check.
Another thread mentions these scammers:

My rule of thumb is if they ask for an appraisal, I delete.
& Best of luck with your name.
