There are a lot of factors that go into domains and pricing.

For me, I do not need a one or two word phrase to get 1st page SERPS. I want something that generally has good, highly searched, keywords in the title. So let's say foot fetish is what I am looking at.

I would consider footfetishonline, footfetishclips, myfootfetish, footfetishnetwork or something to that effect. If that is the phrase I want, I will work many combinations to find some phrase that makes sense, and has the keywords I am targeting.

Some look at domains and will pick this one word shitters that make absolutely no sense and have no relation to the product or content they are selling. Their only rationale will be, 'it's short' as why they are preferring to use it. Which to me is insane.

Domains are like many things in this industry. Subjective to who is willing to buy it and the price willing to pay for it. As for the seller, that also comes down to how badly they want to move it. If you want $5k for some domain, you may need to sit on that shit for 90+ days. If you want to move it, you sell it for $1000.00.

A lot of things, especially high ticket items, come down to building value or selling. Otherwise, it can be a waiting game. You may have a good domain, and decent asking price, but you may have to hold it for a while until someone is interested in paying your price point.

That's why some hire brokers.
