October 31, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
WSX Hosting today announced their new Domain Appraisal Service. This invaluable service helps buyers and sellers determine the true value of their .biz, .com, .cc, .net, or .org domain.

It isn't easy to determine the true value of a domain. Everyone has heard of domains selling for millions of dollars. What makes one name valuable and another essentially worthless? Just looking at the name and guessing will not help. Just because a name sounds good or looks good doesn't mean it is valuable. WSX Hosting has extensively studied domain sales to derive an accurate, fair and dependable model of domain values.

For Domain Buyers, it is crucial that you get that name appraised first. You will be in a better bargaining position when you know the true value of the domain you are purchasing. Never purchase a domain without first getting a professional appraisal! In the past, domain purchasers have been victims of price gouging by "domain squatters" and other unethical swindlers. Now you can negotiate with full confidence knowing the appraised value of the domain you are buying. Sellers sometimes greatly overestimate the value of a domain name in hopes of striking gold. With a professional appraisal in hand, buyers can effectively bargain with sellers.

For Domain Sellers, an unbiased and professional domain appraisal gives value to a domain. It doesn't matter if your selling an extra domain, exiting a failed dotcom business, selling a successful dotcom business, or just curious about the value of your assets - a complete domain appraisal is a smart move. An independent, professional appraisal from WSXHosting.com substantiates a seller's asking price, gives credibility to the seller and almost always increases the actual value of the domain. A Professional appraisal helps to establish the REAL value of a domain and provides an easy starting point for bargaining with buyers.

The WSXHosting.com Domain Appraisal Service is based on a Proprietary Statistical Model that considers 10 characteristics of a domain to estimate it's value and is both realistic and practical. In addition to using the mathematical model, the WSXHosting.com expert appraisers apply their subjective judgment to every appraisal before arriving at a final value! Customers receive appraisals that are given a fair market value, not an outrageous or overestimated sum.

When you purchase an appraisal, you get an EXPERT evaluation of your .biz, .com, .cc, .net, or .org domain. The WSXHosting.com expert appraisers will consider every aspect of the domain to derive a value for the domain. This method is known as the "hedonic" method. This differs from the typical "ad hoc" methods used by other services. Our method relies on hard data on domain sales over the past several months.

Also, every appraisal comes with a customized report for the domain detailing the ranking criteria and certifying the value. Sellers find such reports extremely valuable since they can forwrd the report to potential buyers to substantiate their asking price.

The WSXHosting.com Domain Appraisal Service is less than most professional appraisal services. They charge a flat rate of $19.95 for each appraisal and guarantee that you will receive your appraisal within 72 hours or your order is free.
