Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Domain Names : Looking for a generic domain name

[gregdavidson]

I'm looking for a generic domain name that costs $1,000 or less. I would prefer a .com. Please let me know if you run across any good ones.

Hi Greg,

Here are some of my generics with their corresponding prices:

1DaySale.org ($500)
7DayPlanner.com ($1000)
AcquirePoints.com ($500)
Auto-Security-System.com ($1000)
BicycleCabs.com ($500)

Regards

You could try checking out Sedo, Afternic, TDNAM. But I very much doubt you'll get a good generic domain name under $1000. You need to be more specific about your requirements and expectatations.

When I say "generic" I meant a "word" such as Dogs.com or Buy.com.

In which case you need to add another three zeros to your price expectation.

Greg, A generic domain name like dogs.com would be more in the range of $2 million. For a couple thousand you may be able to get a generic one word domain name like CONCIERGED.COM, which I saw listed for sale somewhere. To get an better idea of what domains are selling for, here are a couple of lists from recent domain auctions at Domainrich.com.

Oh ok. Thanks for the info guys. Maybe I should stick with more affordable domain names.

aalwu.com ($250)
ircqnet.com ($450)

Yeah. There are many 2 word generics under still available or to be had on Sedo, Afternic, TDNAM.

Hi warp3! How are your domains generic? I honestly wouldn't pay the normal $10 registration fee nevermind pay what you're asking.

[coax]

aalwu.com and
ircqnet.com

arent generic to my knowledge..

either way, there are plenty of good 2 word generic domains around, however you should have some expectations of what type of words you want.. write down a list of some words you want and then search sedo/tdnam and so forth..
seeing as you posted a thread you could also list some types here and i'll look around..

[eric418]

don't expect people here will come up with a list of domains/prices for you to choose from. this is not a reasonable expectation.

just go sedo for a quick search and it's all done.

[gregdavidson]

Some people are asking outrageous prices on these sites for generic domain names. Some of them aren't even generic and the owner is placing some high random price on the domain.

True. But you can still find bargains. I do... every day.
