Domain For Sale - Dating (.com ) + More !
 

Wow ! thats a domain I think will attract a lot of interest at the upcomming Snapnames/Moniker Auction on May 13th.

Dating (.com ) market range $1m - $5m ...I wonder if someone here will buy it and for how much ????? ! .

That is a great domain!

It IS a great domain obviously, BUT the thing is that most dating sites are basically trying to play up another angle...either MATCHING or FLIRTING or, on the adult side, FUCKING...because most people HATE dating. :P So I'm not sure it really would sell that high.

Interesting analysis ......

im going to guess a sale at around $2.5m...and maybe the buyer ? penthouse/adult friendfinder.

nice domain:)

its not worth 7 figs

its not brandable or trademarkable

The auction details state the following;

Rights to the federal trademark registration (Reg No. 2580467) for the mark “Dating.com”.

I would have agreed with you if it wasnt for this statement..but it seems everything is trademarked though these days ! even names you would think stood no chance of getting accepted due thier common use.....i guess in this case its the .com part with it as opposed to the actual word dating.

You can't trademark the TERM Dating unless it was for something completely unrelated to dating (like surely Monster.com has Monster TM'd for anything job/career related). You can however trademark any full domain, and it's smart to do so so that you can scoop up typos in UDRPs.

real nice domain....the whole dating sites seems to be picking up as i have seen more and more request for non nude content

WebCamRoulette ( com ) $100,001 - $250,000

Will be interesting to see how this one does now that a few cam roulette type scripts and programs have started.....will it be a new trend...or simply fade away.....

$1m - $5m just seems overpriced.

Well the site starting the trend is already fading away. The media isn't giving it a boost anymore and the novelty seems to be wearing off a bit. That's partly why the domains I got to sell based on its popularity could be possibly used for other things, while there's not much else you can really do with WebCamRoulette, or at least that the name would benefit any more than any other. I realize it gets collateral traffic from ChatRoulette but if that site starts to die fast, there goes the value of that domain. Very high risk for that kind of price.

Worth about $20 - 25 now :2 cents:

that federal registered trademark is worth as much as the paper its written on.
That trademark clearly states its a descriptive TM/Domain and cannot be trademarked by USPTO.
