domainpundit · #1 (**permalink**) 07-31-2009, 11:08 PM

During the recent times especially after december 2007 the demand for three letter .com's fallen like anything ...

I know estibot but i dont believe the same for .in prices, professional domain valuation consultants will always there to help. Apart from that is there any other ways.
I want to how to evaluate the .in domain prices..any inputs in this regard are highly appreciable.

cheers

for LLL.ins:
1.amount of type-in traffic
2.# of meaningful acronyms
3.exact searches on google.co.in
4.absence or presence of semi/non-premium letters in the LLL combination.

These are my 5 criteria generally for determining the value of an LLL.in

Thanks Warbux , I am also doing the valuation on the same lines...now i got confidence that i am doing in a right way...

One more question..

'absence or presence of semi/non-premium letters in the LLL combination'

What are the semi/no-premium alphabets?

I believe X,Y,Z ,Q - Non Premium
J,u,V,G - semi premium

can you confirm my understanding...

Yes, X,Y,Z,Q can be described as non-premium,BUT, it also matters how the LLLs combine. For example, i picked up cqa.in, cqd.in, cqm.in and even though they have Qs in them, they make for some meaningful acronyms IMO, so i would call them semi-premium in that situation at worst. its all about the overall combination of the 3 Ls in the LLL. Having 1 semi-premium/non-premium is not an automatic doomer of your LLL.in, and people need to stop getting carried away by just the quality of a letter in the combination. its about the whole combination.

I agree with you warbux , I have a domin named ----.in , but in reality its returning good money when compare to rest of the domains in my LLL.in portfolio.

Like to add one more point:

--> If the LLL.in name is an actual common English word
