I also agree with Nesa about all the domain extensions that are popping up, which is kinda diluting the dotcom domain value.

On the face of it, it does not seem all that valuable because I have seen far far better domains go for far far less. In many ways, in future I think a domain will only have great value if it has traffic because they are launching so many different extensions that people are no longer willing to pay a premium for a .com domain unless its highly mmarketable because a .com is no longer the be all and end all of domain names. These thousands of extensions that are being launched will only dilute the value of domains. So, in some ways we come to what matters on internet - traffic.

In fact you could argue the supply is VERY limited, in that for example there is only one domain for www.microsoft.com - I imagine Bill would be prepared to pay a fair price for that domain if someone else owned it :) Good point about end users, this helps limit the supply.

Another plus for end users to snap up decent names, if they dont someone else will.... :) One thing to note is higher value sales often are with end users, thus names are unlikely to be resold.

These days its very difficult to figure out the value of a domain. I agree with John. These days its very difficult to figure out the value of a domain.
