What makes a .net name valuable
- Words people search and buy: commercial keywords (loans, insurance, health, AI) outsell made-up strings.
- Length and spelling: short, easy to say and spell, no hyphens or numbers unless they mean something.
- Brandability: a name a startup could build a company on.
- Demand right now: DnRatings' buyer-demand score shows the chance a name would get a bid at an expired-domain auction, from real auction results.
- Trademarks: a name that contains someone else's brand is worth little to a legitimate buyer.

How much is a .net domain worth?
Most .net names never sell at all. Among recorded .net sales, the median price is about $2,000, and half sold between $1,300 and $3,500. A specific name can be worth far less or far more; value it on DnRatings for an estimate.
Are shorter .net domains worth more?
Usually. Short names are scarce and easy to remember, so they sell for more on average, but a short random string can still be worth less than a longer name made of strong keywords.
