Premium domain name pricing

redarrow said:

I know how it works and it works in a syndicate of domain providers.

what happens you search for a domain if that domain is of value the provider flogs it to a holding domain provider and it priced.

this has been going on for years all domain providers are involved.

because it sold to agency holders it not classed as illegal.

infact the pll are doing there research for them .

if you buy the domain then it yours,
but once you leave the website the domain gets bought by a domain agency to hold.

you then can buy the domain thu the agency.

because these agency are all different registered business not classed as illegal.

in reality it deception to the people .

it big business taking advantage of the people.

Exactly this.

I was doing a similar task a few months back like OP. It was. Pain.

Anything half decent you came up with was already either registered (in the smaller percentage of cases) or priced as premium. And these were combinations of absolutely basic words without any buyer intent or cpc value.

They probably have some kind of an estimator, based on both cpc value of the keyword and on how common the words is.

The golden era of SEO has been gone for a while now. Now we have to work with whatever has been left.

When I was registering my first domain, I had 4-5 names in mind but all of them were marked as premium. I got irritated and checked for kw + shit -dot-com. They are showing it as premium domain too as shit is a popular word

This may be the oldest trick in the game, but it's something that just happened to me for the first time.

I'm brainstorming domain names for a client.

I search for any existing word and it shows up as premium. Even crazy words.

This thing is looking up a dictionary and it's charging hundreds of dollars for domains based on their CPC keyword value. Regular reg fee for one gTLD is like 28 bucks or something, it's asking for 400 bucks.

I just checked whois and the domains I was prospecting aren't registered.

It's charging some multiple of KW CPC price.

We live in interesting times. How much would the first registration of money.com cost in 2020?
