WeddingInvitations.com.au & ChristmasCards.com.au

[Chris.C]

A couple of quality domains dropping tomorrow...

Thoughts? Estimates?

 

[Ash]

wedding-invitations.com.au went for $610 recently.

10 x that without the hyphen is my (wild) guess

 

[Chris.C]

I'm thinking $8500+

 

[snoopy]

Super strong names, weddinginvitations.com.au is a lot better but both could form viable small/home businesses in my view, would be a full time thing though especially wedding invitations.

Would guess 8k for weddinginvitations.com.au & 2k for christmascards.com.au.

I think christmascards could go for more than expected. I haven't looked at any stats but one would think it being a seasonal domain the exacts would be significantly higher in december - that and the high CPC (as per NetFleet stat).

Those netfleet stats aren't right for it, CPC is $2.11, Average Exact searches 6600.

Fair enough. Looks to be like weddinginvitations is the domain of the day

Indeed.

The real question is does this domain have the potential to be a 5 figure domain?

5 figure results are always good for creating a bit of buzz.

I don't think so given the recent lacklustre drop results.

The wedding market is HUGE and this is a prime domain! But what is the marketability or ChristmasCards.com.au? Unless one of the big card makers (like Hallmark) or maybe someone like MoonPig (are they still around?), but for anyone else is there a big enough market when most people just pick them up from the news agent or department store?

 

[Data Glasses]

weddinginvitations is a all year domain ...........much better

Would try selling bulk christmas cards personally. If it works in a department store I don't see why it wouldn't work online.

 

[DomainNames]

both great names, put in a high bid for wedding invitations buts its beaten already.

good luck to the winner who gets it

If drop gets them....

weddinginvitations.com.au went for $16k

christmascards.com.au went for $2k

 

[Chris.C]

I really hope for the industry's sake Drop gets them...

EDIT: I just realised Snapper was working! I thought if NF caught the domains they would sell for whatever was the last highest bidder before NF's issues at 12:30pm. Turns out it just wasn't loading in my FF - but is working in IE??

Those are some great numbers!

And to be honest they might not be that surprising...

I was doing maths with those sorts fo search volumes and with most wedding invites likely to set you back between $200 - $2000 I wouldn't be surprised if the wedding invitation industy is a $25M+/year industry in Australia.

 

[morganp]

Seems like it will be some nervy moments. Im guessing the under bidder at Drop had the top bid on netfleet. Judging how the bids where placed.

 

[aus11]

$17,001 on Netfleet! That is huge!

 

[Chris.C]

Removed.

 

[snoopy]

Both caught via hand registration.

Isnt the winner Findtim from here? If so...congrats!!
