Leapfish, the Free Domain Name Appraisal, is Gone. Try These...

LeapFish.com use to offer a unique domain name appraisal service for free, yet it seems to have been sold to eperks.com (a Real Estate broker.) Simular sites to Leapfish include; dnscoop.com, estibot.com, business-opportunities.biz& shortship.com. All three offer free valuations based on items like; incoming links, keywords, age, etc.. From a quick evaluation it would appear that EstiBot is perhaps the most realistic.

EstiBot

http://estibot.com

valuates your domain based on some 30+ (and counting) characteristics of the domain name. The characteristics of your domain name are compared to a database of previously reported domain sales and the valuation is based on that comparison.

Example:

Domain: czarism.com
Keywords  (Autodetected) czarism
Frequency (Google) 30500
in Anchor Text 155000
in Title 12800
in URL 131000
Backlinks 26
Alexa Rank 587533
Traffic (Visits / Day) 710
PPC Ads Score 0
Overture/mo 34
Wordtracker/day 0
Valuation for domain name only : USD 270
Valuation considering traffic: USD 2,500

dnScoop

http://www.dnscoop.com/

calculated based on several factors shown above, including: Links, Traffic (Alexa), age of the domain, site category, domain keyword popularity, and overall occurrences of the domain name on the web.

Example:

The estimated value of http://czarism.com is: $17,360

ShortShip

http://www.shortship.com

does not mention and says, "we just launched.. lol".

Example:

PageRank score : 78.125
Google Link Score:
Yahoo Link Score: 999.5
AllTheWeb Link Score: 28.6
Altavista Link Score: 29
MSN Link Score:
Length Bonus: 0
Alexa Ranking Score: 340.40640951232
ShortShip Estimated Value: 1483.6314095123

Inspired by Tristan Louis's research into the value of each link to Weblogs Inc, I've created this little applet using Technorati's API which computes and displays your blog's worth using the same link to dollar ratio as the AOL-Weblogs Inc deal.

Example:

My blog is worth $2,822.70.

So, some where between $250 and $17,000... Uh-ermmm
