AmateurPorn.com : sell it or develop it?

We've recently received a seven figure offer the domain AmateurPorn.com.

Should we sell it or develop it?

I would sell it for seven figures, personally, but it's a very nice name for development as well Do you want to develop it? If not, get the CASH

If you don't have a big plan and a big budget to make it sell and make the 7 figures in a year yourself..... sell. Bottom line.

Like said above, if you dont have a plan in place to develop it to something huge then SELL IT!

7 figures isnt a crackhead price.

we've eventually developed our better ones.. OlderWomen.com, Twinks.com, FullBush.com, etc.

we have the time to develop and budget's no problem but this recent domain buying buzz has churned up a ton of offers on our domain portfolio. most of them aren't big enough $$$ to really get us to sell...seven figs is tempting

Honestly, what kind of traffic are you recieving? Have you considered slapping a parking page on it or even affiliates? Seems to me without knowing how much revenue its generating, you might be selling yourself short...

However!

Considering what recent Adult Domains have sold for - a seven figure offer would probably be more than fair.

Porn.com sold 2 months ago for 9.5 million through Moniker.... is 1 million on the mark for AmateurPorn.com ? Seems to be on the high end - especially with potential for typos.... I think its a sell situation.

I agree with Justin....

I know you paid some cash to get this domain, so look at your profit in the time you have owned it. I would bet you would see another 25-50% gain in the next 5 years as well. It's an investment and there are reasons why they are selling for 7 figures.

Unless you are making $1,000 a day with parking it and or affiliates, Sell.... I just hate the typo chance!

I think it was already sold. Either way, if you dont know what you are doing, a good domain is worth less. look at sex.com

it hasn't been sold.
your example is exactly why we would even be considering the option. we'd only very recently started to ponder the development plan.

I would develop it, this is a lifetime money earner. You could easily develop and add value. IE spend lots of money creating a quality site. 2+2=5, Spend 1/2 million on it you could have a site worth 5million.

Its a great domain name and I personally think a 7 figure offer is worth it to sell. Let's put it this way, do you see yourself developing the name to being worth more than what you're being offered now that you couldn't do it on another domain name? My guess is probably not... sell sell sell

Let's sit back and think about this for a minute. You got a great domain name and according to many on this board, it has great potential. If you had a big budget and some development plans, it could potentially make you lots and lots of money. You would sit back and say to yourself: "Wow, I'm so glad I didn't sell this domain name - I am wiping my soft ass with one hundred dollar bills. I now have to go to Home Depot and get a wheel barrel for all this money".

Now let's look at it from a different perspective. Could you take a domain name that has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with adult and turn it into a monster site? Could you take the 7 figures you received from selling AmateurPorn.com and fund an even better project on a domain that costed you $9.99 per year? OF COURSE YOU FUCKING CAN. Look at domain names like youtube.com, ebay.com, google.com, yahoo.com, thehun.com, etc. These domain names didn't mean shit before a bunch of smart handsome men decided to development something beyond what everyone else was capable of.

Can you make money parking this domain? Yes. Can you make money selling banner spots on this domain? Yes. Can you look at your portfolio and say "Wow AmateurPorn.com is a great domain name and it's all mine!". Yes. Can you sell that domain name and show everyone what $1,000,000 in marketing and development can do? I hope so.

sure we could do something with an inferior domain..ie., we've made millions off of AuntJudys.com, however, it's pretty reasonable to propose that using Amateurporn.com offers a much greater opportunity to build a brand/business in a insanely overcrowded marketplace then a $9.99 forgettable hermilfsfirstblackvanride.com. We know OlderWomen.com has a huge percentage of repeat traffic, type-ins, etc that have to be attributed at least in a large part to the domain.
