Valuation disclaimer
- All values shown are automated estimates for general information only. They are not a formal appraisal and can differ significantly from what a domain actually sells for.
- An estimate is not a sign of liquidity: it doesn't mean a buyer exists, or that the domain can be sold at that price, or at all.
- Nothing on this page is financial, investment, legal or tax advice. Don't buy, sell or hold a domain based on these figures alone; do your own research and speak to a qualified professional where appropriate.

How the score works
Every domain is rated from 0 to 100 across six weighted factors:
- Length (25%): shorter names are easier to type, remember and fit on a logo.
- Extension (20%): .com earns the most trust, followed by popular tech extensions such as .ai, .io and .net.
- Pronounceability (20%): a healthy balance of vowels and consonants, with no long consonant clusters.
- Clean characters (15%): hyphens and mixed letters and digits are penalised.
- Radio test (10%): could someone type it correctly after hearing it once?
- Memorability (10%): fewer syllables and fewer parts make a name stick.
A high score doesn't guarantee a domain is available, and a low score doesn't mean a name can't work. Treat it as a quick second opinion, then check availability with our domain name generator.

Good domain names are short, easy to pronounce, easy to spell after hearing them once, and sit on a trusted extension such as .com. They avoid hyphens and random digits, and they sound like a brand rather than a sentence.
It gives a ballpark range, not an appraisal. The estimate combines extension, length, keywords, dictionary words and brandability, and is checked against real asking prices. Actual sales also depend on buyer demand, traffic and comparable sales, so treat it as a starting point.
The radio test asks whether someone could type your domain correctly after hearing it once, for example on a podcast. Hyphens, number-words like 4 or 2, double letters and unusual spellings all make it easier to get wrong.
For most consumer and B2B brands, yes. People type .com by default and it signals legitimacy. Extensions like .ai and .io are well accepted in tech, but many startups upgrade to the .com as they grow.
Try variations with our domain name generator, pick a different extension, or buy the name from its current owner. Plenty of premium domains are listed for sale on marketplaces such as 2ba.net.
