Value of 11 year old domain?
 

I found one domain which sounds nice and owner is willing to sell it,but don't know how much to offer him.Domain is 11 year old.

With just the age it's hard to give a proper estimate.

What is the domain ?:)

ICQ me, or email me the domain name if you want. I won't make it public. I have a guy who likes to buy old domains like this, if he likes it.

Nevermind i will offer 1000$ if he take it fine if not screw it.

Very aged domains (around 10 years old) can be picked-up very cheaply on some of the domain forums. So unless it`s a special name or has traffic or history etc. then it isn`t necessarily worth bundles.

I hope that helps with your valuation.

free-pron-raccoon.info?

11$ sold ;)

age is not really the deciding factor

Domain contain two keywords which bring overall 20k se daily traffic potencialy.

$1K sounds good for that much traffic.

A domain's age is one of many different factors in domain valuation but, in terms of SEO, it's a big factor - Google bums old domains.

Yep that is why i am willing to pay more.

age alone is worthless

which domain is in question?

I agree ...I have sold many domains 5-7 years old for under $100 ...its really about the domain itself.

Any luck yet?
Did you buy it, which domain was it?

It being 11 years old is good for seo, but only if its been indexed in those years.

If it was regged in 1998 and sat still til today, and was never indexed, it might as well be brand new. (in that facet anyways).

it's depends

:2 cents::2 cents::2 cents:

Hmm didn't know that...Well i guess i will have to reduce price from 1000$ to 200$ since domain is not indexed.

Is it a keyword domain?

age doesnt mean wanything if its got no pr or has no traffic or history, but if its a good name it could be worth quite a bit.

So It's a 2 word domain, is it generic? like: teensex.com milfporn.com etc? is it a niche word and the word: movies, videos, sex, porn etc after?

Age is irrelevant. How long do you think Twitter.com has been registered?

EDIT: bad example, 9 years ago LOL

The question IS : does Google care about that old domain age?

only if it's had a site on it for 11 years. aged but parked is practically useless. that's why i always develop every domain i have and never park them.

nichepornword.com is domain type.I targetting nicheporn keyword and pornword keyword.
Also it seems domain was indexed from 1998 to 2002.(according to archive.org)

Anyway he wants 350$ for domain.Need to think about it.Age or not it's still nice domain.

even parked its worth $1100 and every year it goes up a hundred

so try and make up a math problem
(backlinks + pages + pagerank + hits) X (age x 100) = answer

but what the fuck do i know :Oh crap

11 year old domain, assuming not online is worth about 8k.. with online and little to no traffic it's worth about 10-12k, more traffic or any sales, its worth more. Every year is worth about $1k once past a few years old.

And 11 year old domain does NOT have to be online to have instant SEO value once it goes online, if built correctly of course.. And Google and Yahoo both care VERY much about domain age..

#1 way to rock it.. age baby!

age matters alot, but like someone else said, be careful, because if the domain sat with no site on it for any extended period of time and gets deindexed, it might lose all advantage it had for it's age, even parking a domain can be a bad idea as google has been known to deindex parked domains and then when they are unparked they are almost worse to use compared to a brand new domain. when it comes to aged domains, make sure they are indexed if you are hoping to get the full benefits that comes along with an aged domain

a 10 year old domain that is penalized or banned by google isn't worth much, but a good 10 year old aged domain is a big plus to get, make sure you check it out before paying big money

You can put an aged domain, never online, online for the first time..add analytics, no backlinks, and it will get "rankings" ... not listings, we are talking absolute traffic listings, with ZERO backlink building..

The hardest listings in google to beat.. are aged domains or pages.. you can have 100x the backlinks, 100x better backlinks, and it won't make a shit difference to age.

agree with you Doc, and that is the way it should be

Ok, so something like teensluts.com etc?

If you decide to pass on it email me the name and I will hook you up with some ref $ if I buy it.

Like a couple of people have said - age does make a difference regardless of whether it's been indexed, parked, etc. Obviously it helps if it's been indexed but seach engines, particularly Google, DO give preference to older domains regardless. The older a domain is, the more likely it is to be an established and trusted website and the less likely it is to be some spammy fucker trying to sneak his new spam website up the Google rankings - those kinds of site don't stick around.

teensluts.com would be worth 5 figs, not $350 :winkwink:

Going, going, gone...GONE, GOODBYE! :1orglaugh

11 yr old domain is worth 8k and online 10-12k? i'm a millionaire then i have hundreds of them.

No something like teenpornvideos.com.In that case you can target teen porn,teen videos,and porn videos keyword.

Hope you will get some good deal

lol .. but u are a millionaire :)

Uhm, are you sure?!

If you have hundreds of 2 word or better domains, that are decent enough and old. Then you have millions if you can find buyers.

Oh I know that my Polish friend :) I was just trying to figure out how the domain was formed. I see it now how he layed it out above and It's not as hot any more ^^ well unless It's a big niche.

Sure on which part? I just released a fat burning site, it was not online but regged in 06.. so not even that aged. Just like anything aged though, no backlinks, 7 days, primary listings.. Now this site, picked up many longtails, because it's not old.. (not because of backlinks)

But my golf site, 04 reg date, was online but sitting.. No backlinks, #1 ranking for master targeted words... every page is listed under traffic phrases 7 days after release... the age, killed the longtails... <-- shhh..

Like clock work...

Once it hits about 10 years, the value of the domain changes into the years of it's age. So roughly $1k for every year, on a half decent domain.

Things like a long name, stupid words, ect.. age or not, if you can't pass the value to the buyer, it's pointless. But that doesn't change the fact that the domain, could, take off simply do it's age.

everything between $11 and $11 mil is fine...

I noticed domain like teenporn.com is not even on top 100 for keyword with same name.Taking a good domain is just one of steps of many to get good serps.

That domain redirects so it wouldn't show up in the serps..

That was just example domain but again i am sure there are many that style domains including one word domains which are not in top 100 for domain keyword.
