Leapfish? Okaaaaay....
Sorry, I know I’ve been a bit Larry Kingish in my quick, semi-insubstantial bulletins lately, but it’s been very busy at work. I’ll have something for you guys soon.
In the meantime, I just found out about LeapFish, a site that appraises the value of your domain name.
According to them, artfulwriter.com is worth…
…drumroll….
$26,796.00!!!!
Awesome! I am totally selling this place and buying a Buick LaCrosse!
As a point of comparison, yahoo.com appraises at $1,523,846,985.
I have some work to do…

AlexSokoloff.com = $20 TimTalbott.com = $30 CraigMazin.com = $46 JoshOlson.com = $85
Now that we’ve settled that, let’s get back to board bashing.
Hey, Josh actually has a page!
http://josholson.com/
And for the record…
patricverrone.com = $11
tedelliott.com = $3168
(yeah, I know… I should sell my domain name and buy a life)
me, that is. not Ted.
awesome. My website is worth over a thousand bucks. Any other Ruairí Robinson’s out there wanna buy it? Come on! There must be thousands. Millions!
…right?
and www.fhkshfklshdflkdhslshfd.com is worth 20 bucks!
Awesome!
get it while the going’s good!

RyanPaige.com = $64
Who’s A-list now, suckers?
Oh my God! I am apparently worth $924!!
And that’s whithout selling my body on Hollywood Boulevard! :)
Leapfish.com = $41,664.00
Uh huh.
Time to go back to work.
CALCULATING DOMAIN NAME APPRAISAL (Please Wait)…………………………………. Domain Name Appraised: google.com Combined Domain Name Appraisal Value Score: 130

$130.00
Whatever their algorithm, it’s no ‘pagerank’. Keep tweaking, fellas.
“According to them, artfulwriter.com is worth…
…drumroll….

Hmmm. That’s just about the same amount as the 2004 MBA’s minimum payment for a non-original screenplay (excluding treatment).
Coincidence? :)
I appraise out at $10,988.00.
When they find my body, please tell everyone I was cleaning my gun when it accidentally discharged.
$32,319.00 baby!
Oddly, the name that got swiped from me - $32.00
This has got to be based on hits - I get around 1k a day, and the name that got swiped from me is just a placeholder right now…
While they come up with some new scheme to sell it back to me for $2k.
Bill,
And google.com is $130?
I can’t get anything higher than $50.00. Artfulwriter.com is $21.00. Tedelliott.com is $50.00. Johnaugust.com was $30.00.
What am I doing wrong?
It’s not you, Marianne. I just checked, and all those sites are now coming up in the low two-figure range. Now I don’t feel so bad that denisemeyer.com is clocking at $20.
Clearly there was an overnight collapse in the domain market that LeapFish is completely on top of.
Probably something to do with the Nikkei.
getrich.com = $65
getsuperrich.com = $20
Leapfish.com = priceless
Damn! I’m $19 now….
I should have sold when I had the chance.
Frigging market crash… I’m gonna jump out my office window!
Oh. I’m in Starbucks. The windows don’t open.
You guys ever think about this:
All the names you input are stored and then purchased.
You’re GIVING AWAY domain names!
You’re GIVING AWAY domain names!”>>>>>
Damn! I’ve been such a fool.
Wait…
fhkshfklshdflkdhslshfd.com is still free.
Hah. Shows what you know.
Only $183.00 for bbc.co.uk.
Buy now while the getting’s good!
I owe THEM money.
I owe THEM money.
The domain name I own is worth a whooping $21. Woohoo!
This was a fantastic article, and the comments following it were great as well. Thanks very much.
Odd that my domain is worth $50,982, yet another similar one (with a different proper name) is worth $106.
It would be a pity if the most valuable thing I owned was the six characters of my domain name. What about my talent!?
I’m worth $11. Sweeeeeeeeet! That’s going on lottery tickets.
Okay, CarlGottlieb.com is worth $44, but I happen to know that a geek in the UK has owned it for years, won’t get off it, and, worse yet, it’s his actual name. But JAWSLOG.COM (an actual page that just lays there, shilling my book), is up there for $41,255.
But it’s community property. I better talk to my ex-wife about it.
