interesting... let's see if lens buys it

julioxp · 08-17-2004, 09:07 AM

but gfyboard.com was also a nice movement eh...

hova · 08-17-2004, 09:08 AM

DarkJedi · 08-17-2004, 09:11 AM

how much you asking for it ?

howard · 08-17-2004, 09:15 AM

Other than to Lensman I really do not think the domain has any great value. Sure surfers might type it in but its only out of curiousity to see where they end up. Its not as if it is pointed..5 figures yes and only on the low end but no way 6..

just my 2 cents...

howard · 08-17-2004, 09:19 AM

also everyone in the adult industry already has gofuckyourself.com bookmarked so really lensman doesn't need it..It's not as if the domain would make him any more money because everyone already knows the site..

Webcam Guru · 08-17-2004, 09:21 AM

That domain name's worth a takeover (25k)

Sorry to burst your attempt at humor but no...

I have moved many domains for my company over the past several years and have learned a lot about value..

True value in a domain is how pointed it is..Traffic numbers certainly have value as well as 3 letter domains but unless someone is going to brand gfy.com its value is only in the eye of the beholder and not in how much income it can make someone.

Brujah · 08-17-2004, 10:01 AM

Who else would the name really be worth anything to ?

err and that is why lensman would want it

he has ALREADY branded GFY

i have typed in gfy many many many times to see if lensman has gotten it yet
i rather type gfy.com instead of typing out gofuckyourself.com each time

of course you would rather type in gfy.com rather than gofuckyourself.com.

so you want him to buy the domain to make your life easier??

how does that put more money in his pocket?

he already has everyone from our industry..

Thinking about it - would it really be worth that much to him. Everyone already has this place bookmarked

RicardoB · 08-17-2004, 12:31 PM

I think the domain has value but it's not a killer

$25k at the most would be my bet.

Exactly what I was thinking.. It's not like he really need the domain now.. But it might be useful that's for sure. Not more than 5k

Taboo · 08-17-2004, 01:19 PM

someone mentioned lawsuit already. ridiculous. gfy is too generic, people use it in online games all the time:
stfu...
no u stfu...
gfy...
no u gfy.... etc.

highly doubt it. not even worth the trouble. easier to work out a price that's win/win. the seller knows what he has but needs to realize that he won't be able to flip the name to anyone else for much money. and LENS does NOT need the name. so seller should take whatever he can get and re-invest it into other domains, etc. flip it and move on.... before he makes LENS "not" care anymore. GFY doesn't need gfy.com, but it all comes down to 4 main objectives:

1) traffic loss
2) surfer convenience
3) shorter email address
4) vanity

even I gave in earlier this year. after I acquired OFFICIAL.com, we started shopping around our website and retail shopping network to partners/VC. Owning OFFICIAL.com was already good enough, but after speaking with enough partners about the "Official Shopping Network" that would piggyback Official.com's launch, we were internally referring to it as OSN, (like HSN: Home Shopping Network) and after seeing/hearing it so many times we had to break down and make an offer on OSN.com, and let me tell you, it was not cheap because of the pedigree (MSN,GSN,CSN,HSN, etc) but looking back now it came down to those 4 objectives I mentioned earlier. I had to have it. Now we have to figure out how many different brands OSN could represent: online, sports, sex, storage, site, security, network, news, etc.

we had to have OSN.com because we'll be branding it from the ground up. gfy doesn't need the .com ANYMORE because LENS has already built a great brand that everyone has bookmarked or like me, always has a window open to it.

YEP.

and with a name like Adult.com in your portfolio, who cares about gfy.com
