Hi,
My husband's bar/restaurant has recently closed, and I'm looking into how to sell the domain name we had for the business... Home .
What do you think it could be worth? I've had it for probably 10 years, maybe more.
Also, is it possible to simply lease the usage of the domain? I'm thinking about generating long term income, if at all possible.
Thanks for your opinions!
I think its a very good domain name.
Its brandable and easy to remember.
Have you thought about trying to sell it to any of the big beer companies? You could try and send them an email to enquire would they be interested. Its a top quality domain I would guess at around 20k+ to the right end user.
It's an exceptionally good adjective/noun keyword name. I think I've actually used that very name as an example when describing what constitutes a good adjective driven keyword name...
Definite live-auction material.
This is a classic example of a somewhat big-time .com name being found 'in the wild' ; where someone had a business in the 1990's, had the foresight to buy a generic keyword/keyphrase name but used it for a relatively small personal venture.
I was in Michigan about six years ago when I drove by a small shop in a strip mall that had their web address lettered across their front window. I ...

there is a compnay that specializes in leasing domain names , cant remember their name but no doubt a google search would find them , i would keep this asset unless i got 50k minimum , you can alwaus put in one of the 'traffic domain auctions' if reserve not meet .......keep it , lease it
we love your name !
the technical contact on this domain either owns or operates dmv.com, wonder if he was the genious behind recommending the purchase to the owner baxk in the day. If you can sell and get $50K from a domain in this economy, when your cost is nil, you would probably get a better return on having the $50K cash, and earning whatever interest, than having the lease payments, with no cash in hand.

I have some domains that I ...
The likelihood of this being a million+ dollar name is slim to none. Great, great keyword name. Veeeeeeeeeeeeery unlikely that its a million+ dollar name, somewhat unlikely that it's even a six figure name, but possible there.
Could you imagine the lucky owner? Worked long hours 7 days a week, did their own thing from week to week, business failed, then think oh, we will just see if we can get a few quid for the domain name. Then realize you have had the jackpot winning ticket all along lol I am not sure it went exactly like this, but its a nice thought.
I think this is a great domain, but it is certainly not in the top 50 domains. As far branding it is very nice, but it shows virtually no traffic which million dollar keyword domains normally come with. Brad Originally Posted by shane mac Rantwire, you could be right. Its an absolute gem of a name, one of the top 50 I can think of. Originally Posted by freedom30 You have a million dollar baby! forget the lowballs of $xx,xxx.
This would be a nice domain say, to be used in a superbowl ad. There are a couple companies that come to mind, the Coors light commmercial that has the freezing cold train running through the ad, and then there's the ad where the label turns blue when the beer is cold. It just seems that domain could be integrated easily into those ads. The worth of this domain will vary greatly, depending upon how much effort and time you wish to use to...

It's an ad campaign. HardLiquor.com ... $1,605 ImportedBeer.com ... $2,600 There is not a million bucks between ColdBeer and the above two. Not for you, but every bar, liquor store, supermarket and convenience store in the United States has a sign...
Originally Posted by demaxxus Given the domain though, and who the end-user would probably be, I don't really think traffic matters. If one of the beer companies wants to buy this for a promotion, or even use it for something more permanent, I think the past traffic will have little impact on the sale price. It's not like they're buying an established site based on its current stats/future potential and are going to continue to...
