Hey all,

Got my hands on 'mobileBTC.com'.

What do you think it's worth?

Cheers

its a good domain name.

It's probably worth $500 - $1000 for the right buyer,
some company who is in the bitcoin space and particularly
in the niche related to mobile phones or something.

However, premium domain names are a very illiquid asset.
You may have to wait years for the right buyer.

If you're looking to sell it now, you probably won't be
able to get more than $100-$200 for it.

It is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

As it isn't even indexed in google, I say it's worth the cost of registry.

Thanks for the input. I was hoping for a few thousand, but I'm certainly not disappointed with what you've suggested.

To some extent I agree, but by the same token, I think it's possible to appraise domains even if it means a big price range.

As far as your second point goes, it's just the domain name itself; when a website is up there and someone does a little SEO, it shouldn't be much trouble to get it listed.

You might get a few thousand, you might get nothing.  That's how these things go.
Domain squatting companies typically overcharge to make up for the many domains
that never sell.  You can do that too, but if you only have a few domains you might
wind up with nothing.
