Hi there!
I was just wondering if anyone knows the accuracy of the Network Solutions "domain valuation" tool.
I typed in my domain and received a figure then typed in a competitor's domain. The competitors domain was about $10K higher than mine!
Odd this - that domain has a PR3 (mine a PR5) and about 2K less backlinks and far far less traffic than mine. Also, it ranks 30-60 within the major search engines. It showed a 5 star for traffic while mine showed only a 2 star.........
I'm thinking about selling my site but am now totally wierded out by this "valuation" tool. Oh yes, while I know it does not value the "content" it still has given me moment for pause!
Thanks! :-)
