Estibot appears to favor .in over .co.in

[gentlesavage]

Estibot is weird. I know you have to take their estimates with a grain of salt. However, it appears to favor .in over .co.in for whatever reason. An example: I plugged in both cricket.in and cricket.co.in and got two different estimates 50 dollars for .co.in and 3400 for cricket.in. Why this is so I have no idea.

Estibot is cool for their stats, but I wouldn't put much faith in the valuations given, especially for pretty much any ccTLD.

However, .in's are definitely worth much more than .co.in domains.

If the owner of cricket.co.in wants to sell it to me for $50, I'd be a very happy man

 

[OzDomainer]

I second that Jeff!

I will have cricket.in for $3400 as well. That would be a GREAT buy!

Estibot's estimations on LLL.in prices are pretty close to what they could be to a reseller or end user. I'm even impressed estibot evaluates .ins! .IN is the way to go these days, and if you should primarily keep .co.ins, try to get strong keywords/1 word names. I've downsized my .co.in names, and i'm cherry picking for .in names. THe sales data seems to support .in being the more lucrative for sales.

 

[gentlesavage]

I think you are right about co.in. I've noticed .co.in gets type in traffic. I haven't seen .in get much, if any type in traffic.

 

[LLL.in King]

the traffic on my LLL.in is picking up.

You seem to be correct.

 

[RaghavK]

LLL.in's are indeed picking up..have come across some examples randomly..so good catch I must say..

estibot appraise 50$ for all .co.ins

 

[Jeff]

You seem to be correct.

Interesting that two people think this. I'll spend some time playing around with it.

estibot appraise 50$ for all .co.ins

I see the same thing

 

[Jeff]

It looks like the $50 issue for .co.in is due to the fact that Estibot is struggling to recognise third level .in domains. I get the same result with .net.in, etc.

I got $0 for these in quick appraisal :--

Biochemistry.co.in
Biochemistry.in
Biomedical.in
DrugShop.in
ComputerSoftware.in

[Jeff]

I'll pay you double that

ComputerSoftware.in is a really nice one!

 

[URLtrader]

Even hundred times that is a bargain !!!

 

[gentlesavage]

He must be doing something wrong. ComputerSoftware.in get's a 990 dollar estimate.

 

[gentlesavage]

Just for the fun of it, I entered flights.in into estibot and got an appraisal of 30,000 beans. Not too bad. Wish I owned it!

 

[Jeff]

That actually sounds in the ballpark for flights.in - it's definitely a 5 figure domain.

 

[URLtrader]

He must be doing something wrong. ComputerSoftware.in get's a 990 dollar estimate.

Another Estibot deviation I observed is when using capitalization of the words. It can appraise differently: WordWord.com and wordword.com for example.

 

[gentlesavage]

That's because for some word combinations it needs you to capitalize them so it can recognize the keywords.
