Well, I am sure it ìs worth well over $10k at least. Most likely a hell of a lot more than $10k.

With extension @ OVT:

Searches done in March 2005
Count Search Term
1113 christian mingle.com
258 mingle.com
160 single parent mingle.com
91 jewish mingle.com
79 single mingle.com


Looks like it gets some nice typeins. Would like to see their revenue stats from the various sponsors they use. My guess is the make a modest sum each year and would only sell the name for a multiple of that... probably 5+ years of the total income per anum.

Without knowing the numbers, but guessing based on Ovt and name quality I'd say mid $X,XXX to high $X,XXX. It's a very nice name indeed.

from what I can tell they make no money from it. www.mingle.com. See for yourself. The links don't go anywhere really.

they have only owned it for a year so i think they paid too much and that is what is dictating their sales price.

Bingo. No value to speculators, but definitely could get their asking if they're patient.
