How much does my domain value actually cost?

We are often asked a question: How much does my domain name cost? This is an important issue because customers are unwilling to sell their domain names at a price below the actual value. The value of the domain name is a very abstract concept, in order to correctly evaluate the customer's domain name value, we draw on the international practice, and combined with China's national conditions put forward the following assessment model:

The value of a domain name can be evaluated in the following ways:

1, the length of the domain name

The importance of domain name length (excluding suffix name) is not to be questioned, the short domain name is not only easy to remember, but also easy to input, easy to make mistakes. We can divide the domain name into the following levels according to the length of the domain name:

A-level: domain name length is less than 5, such as AAA.

B-Level: The length of the domain name between 6-10, such as Amazon.

C-level: domain name length between 11-15, such as Greatdomains

D-level: domain name length between 16-20

E-Class: Domain name length of more than 20

2, the meaning of the domain name:

The meaning of domain name is also one of the elements of domain name value, such as some commonly used English words or Chinese phonetic abbreviations to name the domain name is more valuable, we also divided it into the following levels:

A-level: some commonly used meaningful, simple English words for the domain name, such as bank

B: In some short, clear Chinese pinyin or some less common but meaningful English words for domain names, such as 1hao (1th), Zhaodaola (found), Amazon (Amazon)

C-Class: The domain name synthesized by two words: such as supermarket

Class D: The domain name consisting of more than three words: such as Youcanmakeit.

E-Class: No obvious meaning of the domain name: such as WTWEWFDDG

3, domain name suffix:

For commercial applications, the. com domain name is undoubtedly the most attractive. and. NET and. org domain names are much worse. This can be divided into the following categories:

Level A:. com

Class C:. Net

Level d:. org and other top-level domains

E-Class: Two-level domain name (such as. com.cn if allowed to transfer)

Domain Name Valuation:

Based on the above several aspects, we can make a general assessment of the value of the domain name. See the following table:

For. com Domain names:

Domain Price Index

Price length a length b length c length d length E
Meaning a 50-1000 30-500 5-100 1-25 0-5
Meaning b 20-500 5-100 3-50 0.5-5 0-2
Meaning C 1-15 0.5-10 0.3-7.5 0.1-4 0-1.5
Meaning d 0.5-5 0.3-2.5 0.3-2.5 0.1-2 0-1.5
Meaning e 0-2 0-1.5 0-1 0-1 0-1

Domain name valuation = Domain Name Price index *10000 (RMB)

For. NET domain names, you can refer to the above method evaluation, but the price to multiply the factor of 0.25, the other top-level domain will multiply by 0.1.

For example: Sina.com length is a class, meaning B class, the valuation should be 200,000-5 million yuan.
