This morning I began beta testing Valuate.com which is a new free domain name valuation service…I did notice that the homepage states: “This service is powered by Estibot 2.0″ – anyone have any opinions on that?

 

I tested a bunch of domains and overall was happy with their valuations (GRIN) – of course though, at the end of the day, a domain name is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it.

 

I also took several domain names, which I have had appraised at several sites and the valuation from Valuate.com was much higher than others….

 

A few things I do like and appreciate is some of the resources built into the valuation results page….that is, the ability to click and get the WhoIs info, another quick click and you can see the archive.org records for the domain and then it provides some high level stats such as search frequency, Avg. CPC, and other TLDs registered….see screen shot below
