Wondering how much your domain name is worth? Get a real-market value (HumbleWorth, trained on 3M+ historical domain sales) and a breakdown of what makes the name strong or weak. No signup. More options available in settings.

Most domains are worth close to their registration cost, a few dollars up to about $50. Short, brandable .com names sell for a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, and premium one-word .com domains reach five to seven figures. Enter your domain in the calculator above to get an estimate for your specific name.
In practice they are the same question, and people search both ways. A domain's value is what a model estimates from length, TLD, keywords, and comparable sales. Its worth is what a real buyer will actually pay, which depends on who wants that exact name. Treat the estimate as the likely range and the buyer as the final price.
The market value comes from HumbleWorth, a machine-learning model trained on over 3 million historical domain sales, so it reflects comparable sales of similar names. Next to it, a transparent factor breakdown scores length, TLD, brandability, keyword premium, dictionary words, and penalties for hyphens and digits so you can see why the name landed where it did.
Type the domain name into the calculator at the top of this page and run it. You get the market value, the factor breakdown, and whether the name is registered or listed for sale. You can also browse values other people have looked up on the domain value lookup page.
If the value is worth selling for, list the domain for sale on domhaul or compare marketplaces before you set an asking price. If you hold several names, run each one and keep the ones with real buyers.
Most domains are worth close to their registration cost, a few dollars up to about $50. The exception is short, brandable .com names: those sell on the aftermarket from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, and premium one-word .com domains reach five, six, or even seven figures. Your domain's value comes down to six things: length, TLD, brandability, whether it contains a commercial keyword, whether it's a real dictionary word, and penalties for hyphens, digits, or repeated letters.
To find out what your specific domain is worth, enter it in the calculator above. You'll get a market value drawn from real sales (auction, marketplace, and brokerage prices) and a breakdown of the name's strengths and weaknesses showing why it landed where it did.
Estimates for names people have already run through this calculator. Each one opens a page with the factor-by-factor breakdown and live market data, so you can compare your own result against real names.
Every domain has the same skeleton: a name and a TLD. The value of that combination comes from a small number of measurable factors that the market consistently rewards or punishes.
This calculator runs six factor checks and multiplies them against a baseline value. Each factor either boosts the estimate (multiplier > 1) or reduces it (multiplier < 1). The result is a value range, a low and high estimate, because no domain has a single fixed price; it's worth what someone will pay for it.
The brutal truth: domain value is set by a buyer with budget, not by an algorithm. A perfectly average 8-character .com might sell for $50,000 if a fintech startup decides it's their brand. A premium-looking name might sit on a marketplace for five years and never move.
Use this calculator as a sanity check. It will reliably tell you whether a domain is roughly "hand-reg territory," a credible brand candidate, or a premium asset. It cannot predict a specific bid.
For real-world comparables, browse NameBio (~2M historical sales) and DNJournal (weekly top sales). Cross-referencing your estimate against recent comparable sales is the closest you can get to a real number.
The calculator gives an algorithmic estimate, not a guaranteed sale price. It produces a value range based on length, TLD, brandability, keyword premium, dictionary word matches, and penalty factors (hyphens, digits, repeats). Real-world sale prices vary wildly because the actual value depends on a specific buyer who wants that exact name, which no algorithm can predict. Use the estimate as a sanity check, not a quote.
The biggest factors are length (short names are worth dramatically more: a 4-char .com is worth far more than a 10-char one), TLD (.com is worth ~2-10× any other extension), brandability (short, pronounceable, memorable names), and whether the name contains commercially valuable keywords (bank, AI, shop, crypto, etc). Penalty factors like hyphens and digits significantly reduce value.
.com is the universal default. About 53% of all domains registered worldwide are .com, and the vast majority of high-value domain sales (six and seven figures) happen on .com. Other TLDs like .io, .ai, and .app have value in tech and AI niches but still trade for a fraction of .com prices on average.
Both. The Market Value section uses HumbleWorth's AI model, a machine-learning system trained on over 3 million historical domain sales, to estimate auction, marketplace, and brokerage prices. The Brand Value Estimate section uses a transparent deterministic algorithm: length, TLD, brandability, keyword premium, dictionary words, and penalty factors. You can see every component of the algorithmic side in the breakdown below the result.
Listing your domain at a premium marketplace is the most reliable path: Sedo and Afternic are the two biggest brokers and handle high-value sales. For lower-value domains, Dan.com (acquired by GoDaddy) is fast. You can also list directly on marketplaces like Atom (formerly Squadhelp). Premium asking prices typically take months to find a buyer. Algorithmic estimates are starting points, not closing prices.
No. The calculator only scores brand strength and market-comparable factors. It does not check trademarks or any legal claims. Before buying or selling a domain for serious money, run a federal trademark search (USPTO TESS for US) and consider consulting a trademark attorney, because generic brandable names can still infringe on existing marks. Social handle availability is a separate question and domhaul does answer it: see the pricing page.
Looking to buy instead of sell? If your estimate came back low and you want a stronger name, try the AI domain finder to find brandable, available domains across .com, .io, .app, and more.
