13k seems abit too much. that's like 14-15 months of income.

Good luck selling it.

polish_aristocrat 03-21-2005 07:46 AM

empornium - what is that?

ssp 03-21-2005 07:47 AM

Who is their right minds would ever type in empornium.com?

Gottis 03-21-2005 07:49 AM

Something to do with http://empornium.us/ getting nice traffic?

Pete-KT 03-21-2005 07:50 AM

why would anyone type that in?

chodadog 03-21-2005 07:50 AM

The site gets so much traffic because there's a porn torrent website called empornium.us
I bet the .com does get quite a few type-ins, but it's going to be people looking to download full and free porn videos.

so it's nothing stable, the traffic may stop in few months when that site goes down

thats what happens when you chose a .US rather than a .COM to build a popular site ;)

Yea, who knows what torrent sites face in 12 months. They could all go down, tough call.

I'm not trying to pretend this is a generic adult type-in name, and I'm not asking $35k for it either ;)

Traffic is actually quite stable and so are the revenue numbers. What is important is that we are NOT dealing with any sort of link traffic, this is PURE type-ins.
In the event empornium.us were to close we would still receive a steady flow of traffic and there are many ways to use this traffic as a launching pad for a self-contained site and actually GROW traffic from there.

Hi,

Thanks to all the parties that have contacted me regarding this name.
The high bid at this stage is $7'000 which is somewhat below the minum I'm willing to let this name go for. I am thus still looking for offers on this name so do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested and would like to discuss this further.

:)

Torrent sites get shut down daily,
Suprnova.org went down
torrentreactor.com
lokitorrent.com was shut down

These sites risk being shut down, when they do they go around changing names if the owners dont end up behind bars.
Surfers visiting these sites are mostly from countries that dont even own credit cards, and since they know the entire torrent thing I doubt anyone is interested in buying anything.

groark 03-22-2005 02:59 PM

I bet Icoocash would convert great on this

lazycash 03-22-2005 03:12 PM

Too much risk and downside for that high of a price. Type ins could be gone tomorrow. This might be a candidate for www.shitty.name

Trax 03-22-2005 03:13 PM

worthless
I can see why you wanna sell fast lol

The name is making $800+ monthly, however you put it I would not call that "worthless".

On another note, the traffic is coming in as type ins (of course due to the poublarity of the .US version), this is NOT link traffic. Even if the .US were to shut down, we would continue seeing significant traffic on this name for a while. There are many ways to actually turn such a situation around and grow the traffic by for example developing the site and using its intrinsic traffic as a leverage.
Lastly, unlike the other torrent sites mentioned above, empornium.us is porn-only and has pretty strict rules which mitigate the probability of being shut down.

DomBuyer 03-22-2005 03:55 PM

Good luck Iridium. :thumbsup

iridium69 03-24-2005 03:28 PM

Still entertaining offers on this domain name :)

iridium69 03-27-2005 02:33 PM

Price reduced to $10'000 for a quick sale. All reasonable offers will be considered.

pushpills 03-27-2005 02:38 PM

i'd sell it too.

Lycanthrope 03-27-2005 02:48 PM

huh?????

Steen2 03-27-2005 02:50 PM

Overture doesn't disagree:

10535 empornium
487 empornium torrent
40 empornium password
37 empornium login
32 empornium forum
28 empornium down

186 empornium.com


Nice name, best of luck!

fris 03-27-2005 02:56 PM

ya i agree it is a profitable domain. but people here are right. about it can go down tomorow and as soon as it goes. whoever buys that isnt going to be too happy with wasting 15k. so you have to be realisitic.

i would keep it myself. and enjoy the money while you can. promote some sponsors. i am sure people will give you content if you can turn it into sales.

if someone is offering you 5k+ for it i would run with it now.

brand0n 03-27-2005 03:14 PM

i wouldnt buy it if it was 500 bucks

jonpotz 03-27-2005 03:22 PM

i'll give you a shmoke and a pancake for it.

deal?

Steen2 03-27-2005 03:23 PM

I just registered a bunch of torrent domains :D

iridium69 03-27-2005 03:24 PM

Fris and others, thanks for the input. I would actually not be selling this domain if it were not for personal short term liquidity issues. There is a risk/reward factor to consider and I think at $10k I am not making things go out of hand. In any event, I will consider all reasonable offers for this domain name.

On another note, if anyone wants SexBlog.us... asking $5k firm. :)

Ok so why don't you keep it for year and a half and make more money that way instead of selling it now ????

BTW, I am sure you contacted the .us to see if they would want to buy it. I would think it has the most value to them anyway.

WRONG
if empormium.us were to close down torrent link directories like torrentspy.com would drop the links as dead, which would drive the traffic volume

Your domain is really considered a typo domain not a type in domain.

It's traffic levels are directly linked to the traffic/popularity of the site that typo is comming from.

That site dies, so will your typin traffic because the free publicity will die as well
