Top Droppers List for July 30th

July 29th, 2010 by FreshAvails in Top Drop List


Top Droppers for July 30
We have a new list for today and include some great stats to help you make up your mind. Today’s list has a good balance of .com, .net and .org domains to selct from, most with very impressive search and CPC numbers. With over 100 to chose from, there should be something in here for everyone. The stats will show the Google searches per month(exact), current average cost-per-click (CPC).

The Big Bangs
The list has three terms with OVER 100K exact searches per month. The top two have over 300k, BANG! These are in .org and .net TLDs so there is some great potential for traffic here. 18 of the names exceed 10,000 searches and 45 are north of 1000. In fact the names combined have over 1.4MM search so you know you have some great potential.

Advertising Picture
You can’t factor only seaches when you are evaluating a domain names for revenue generate and overall value. The amount of money advertisers are willing to pay for those terms as well as overall demand help to further round out that picture. We have included those statistics for your review as well. Note that three (3) of the domains on today’s list are higher than $20 mark and seven (7) of those are above $10. All the names combined provide an average of over $2.80…very nice advertising potential for your sites.

Snag a Few

These names should be in high demand tomorrow, so you should get your backorders in now or plan on hitting the registries right at the drop times. To improve your chances, make sure to backorder at multiple places.

Start of the Drop Times by TLD
.com = 2pm EST
.net = 2pm EST

New Domain Sales Site…NamusFamus.com

July 29th, 2010 by FreshAvails in Domaining Thoughts


The Launch of NamusFamus
Every time a new domain sales platform/site is launched, we typically like to take a closer look to see what others in the industry are doing. We were notified by email that NamusFamus was a new website, launched this week, that focused on low priced, high quality domains with a few interesting features. We were contacted because we have bought and sold a few domains with the owner, Michael Storseth, in the past. Overall we were pleased and impressed with the site’s design and flow and feel like this has a good shot at being successful.

The Good
The content is fresh and the design is easy to navigate. The site is supplementing it’s traffic with daily email updates and includes a simple and clear subscription process that is well promoted on the main page. The best part about this is the fact that it should have appeal to an audience not already familiar with the domain aftermarket industry. Also very good are the prices. So far this week, we have seen quite a few very nice domains priced under $100 (AccountingPrinciples.org, ExerciseCenters.com, Impropriety.net and many more)Also, there seems to be a nice selection of higher priced names with impressive search and CPC statistics. As many of you know, beauty is in the eye of the beholder so you will need to check it out for yourself.

There is also a daily “Star Deal” feature that highlights one domain or set of domains and provides a little more depth in it’s description. Pretty nice selection of names so far for this feature. One more thing this site is providing is a daily trivia contest worth $25 in gift cards, incorporating some sort of tie-in to a name(s) listed for that day. We were fortunate to win the first one and were delivered our prize within hours of notification of winning. Not sure how long this will last so I would encourage you to act now to try and take advantage.

The Bad?..Not Really
As we stated earlier, we like the site and the prices so what’s the hitch. The biggest hitch we see moving forward is the DAILY demand on the site’s owners(s) to provide fresh names, prices, descriptions and emails that engage their audience. It will be a lot of work, but if they are able to do it, it should be a tremendous success.

Check it Out Yourself
Have a look for yourself to see what the team over at NamusFamus have put together. We always love to see folks success in this industry, especially if they are doing it the right way. Feel free to check out the email subscription as well. Have fun and Good Luck to NamusFamus and Mike.
