NameJet sent out a clever tweet today marketing the auction of the Yad.com domain name. The graphic above shows a hand pointing to the domain name.
To most people who saw the tweet, this is probably more of an innocuous graphic than anything. To someone who knows Hebrew, it’s pretty clever. In Hebrew, the word “yad” means hand. In addition, a “yad” is a pointer that is used when a person is reading the torah (Torah.com). You can click here to see what a yad looks like if you’d like.
The auction is a few weeks away, and the domain name already has a high bid of $7,000. Hebrew meaning or not, the Yad.com domain name has considerable value.
Estibot.com values torah.com at $470. That seems about right to me…what did you pay for it?
If you really think that, you probably shouldn’t be in this business.
Were you able to give your domain names away for free? https://www.domaininvesting.com/weekly-brokerage-listings-129/#comment-202720
LOL. Yup.
I can’t work out if that was just a little Jewish insult or if you honestly think that torah.com is only worth $470. It MUST be the former because nobody in their right mind would honestly think that, that domain has so little value.
Even the most dedicated and devout Muslim would recognize torah.com as a valuable domain. At the very least it deserves two more zeros, probably even three.
EDIT: Just wondering if you have any dictionary word .com domains for sale. HaHa
Estibot values torah dot com at $470. Whay did you pay for it?
Of course that is private and none of your business.
Shall I share Estibot values for all of the domain names you put up for sale on my blog in the last several weeks?
Estibot value of Torah.com is $207K
Personally if I was jew I will never resale this name but develop it.
It is not for sale.
Everything is for sale.
I checked again, estibot is comprehending torah.com as “to rah”, not “torah”…clearly it’s worth much more than $470 – it just shocked me at first.
So you’ve gone from “Estibot.com values torah.com at $470. That seems about right to me” to “clearly it’s worth much more than $470” in under an hour. Interesting.
Speaking of your weekly names for sale section, I registered realestate.vc for $32 six months ago and flipped it here for $295 three months later. Thank you for the platform
Congrats
Funny story, spoke to the owner (Ari Lewitter) or perhaps former owner since whois appears to have changed about this name about 6 years ago. Whois switched feb 21st to New Venture Corp. Very nice guy, offered him $15,000 USD and he said no thank you, rather keep it. That is generally code for give me more lol
Perhaps he eventually sold it for more last week I assume so good luck to the new owners/sellers. Perhaps they are trying a quick flip or Ari just transferred ownership to a corp?
In the good ole days before the down turn I could have resold it for nearly $25k+ to another domainer. Will be interesting to see what it brings. Netsol seems to get the most +++ out of bidders.
