here you go:

pcmunkey.net - $0, misspelled word and combination of 2 words.. sorry

digital-w0rld.net - you might be able to get registrar's fees for this one, the hyphen and the '0' drop the value significantly

tamavg.net - no value

Lol...you dont appraise domain names by what they look like, or how they're spelled.

You appraise them by popularity, and traffic.

For example, my site pcmunkey.net receives more than 350,000 hits per month......and averages 250+ unique visitors per day.

This was for last month....the entire month...

This month alone we have recieved over 170,000 hits, and are averaging more than 900 unique visitors per day.

I think that kinda popularity/traffic is worth well over $0

I think that sev's assessments are right on. I also think that if you were really getting 350K hits/month at pcmunkey.net it would have a much better alexa ranking. And spelling and look of a domain deffinatly have to do with it's value, not to say that a mis-spelling is worthless.

My site hosts images for people, for free....

You choose a file, upload it, and you can use it anywhere on the internet.

People like that, they come to my site, and use it.

I just bought some new hosting, so I can continue my services.

It will take effect in appx 24-48 hours....for the DNS info to take effect.

How do you get a higher rank on Alexa?

how often is it updated?


I have never heard of Alexa until now.

Your ranking is based on traffic going to your site so to get a better ranking you need more people going to your site. The ranking for my site is about 585K and I don't have nearly 350K hits a day...

www.alexa.com They've been around pretty much since the dawn of the net and are almost considered the Internet's "official" traffic ranking site.

Just might want to add to this thread...

Alexa is extremely inaccurate. No one who is serious about trying to find value will hold Alexa to a reliable source.

Appraisal:

Your domain names are worth $5 all together.

Though since they are developed sites, they (not the domain name, but everything) are worth more. The names themselves are not that good though.
