NameWorth Alternative for Bulk Domain Appraisal With Sold Comps

NameWorth gives you a number for .com names only and no comps behind it. Type any name here, .com, .io, .ai or .co, and see the price corridor with the sales it came from. Then run the whole list at once.

The appraisal desk is open

Type a domain like sunsetcapital.com or a keyword like capital to see its estimated value, the sales that prove it, and matching names for sale.

The short answer

NameWorth is a subscription appraisal tool for domain investors, priced from $9.99 to $4,999 a month by lookup volume. It values .com names only, shows no comparable sales, and in Domain Name Wire's 2026 test it ran high on short names. If you hold other extensions, or need comps to defend a price to a buyer, you need a different tool.

Our bulk appraisal values every name in a CSV, prints the comps beside each corridor, and marks which names to list, hold or drop. Investor runs up to 1,000 names at a time for $49 billed monthly, the same money as NameWorth's Platinum plan.

What it costs per lookup

NameWorth pricing plan by plan

Every NameWorth plan is a monthly lookup allowance. Bulk upload starts at Gold and the API at Diamond. The per-lookup column is our arithmetic, the plan price divided by its lookups.

Passed

1 of 4 within a factor of two

Of the four names with a disclosed sale price, only MakeMatter.com landed within 2x. Every miss was on the high side.

.com only

The test's .io, .ai and new-extension names got no NameWorth value at all. DNW called that knowing its limits, and it is. It also leaves those names unpriced.

Backup data out of date

DNW found the list of extensions a name is registered in was wrong, and asked whether valuations built on it can be right. No comps were shown.

Choosing honestly

When NameWorth is enough and when you need something else

Stay with NameWorth if

  • You hold only .com names and want a quick relative ranking, not a price you will quote to a buyer.
  • You score tens of thousands of expiring .com names a month. At $0.025 a lookup the enterprise tiers are cheap for drop hunting, and its daily expiring names list is built for that job.
  • You need an API feed into your own tooling and $99.99 a month for Diamond fits the budget.

Switch if

  • Your book mixes .com with .io, .ai or .co. A tool that skips a third of your names is not a portfolio appraisal.
  • You price names to sell. A buyer who pushes back on $8,000 is answered by three comparable sales, not by a demand rating.
  • You want the appraisal and the listing in one place, so the names worth selling go straight onto the seller board with their comps attached.

From a list to listed names

How to value a domain portfolio in one bulk run

The point of a bulk appraisal is not a total to admire. It is a sorted list that tells you which renewals to pay, which names to price, and which to let go before the bill arrives.

  1. 01

    Export your names

    Pull the list from each registrar as a CSV. One column of names is enough, any extension.

  2. 02

    Run the whole file

    Upload it on Investor (up to 1,000 names a run) or Pro Broker (up to 10,000). Each row gets a corridor, a confidence score and its comps.

  3. 03

    Strike the bad comps

    Open the names you plan to sell and check every comparable sale. Same extension, similar length, same keyword family. Drop the ones that do not fit.

  4. 04

    List, hold or drop

    List the names with demand at a price inside the corridor, keep the slow ones, and stop renewing the names that came back with no comps at all.

Our interest, stated plainly

What we sell and where NameWorth is cheaper

We run a marketplace, so we earn when you list and sell, and you should read this page with that in mind. Our plans are not free either. Investor is $24 a month billed annually or $49 monthly plus 12 percent on a completed sale, and Pro Broker is $124 a month billed annually or $249 monthly plus 8 percent.

If all you want is a cheap score on a huge .com list, NameWorth costs less per lookup at volume, and we would not pretend otherwise. Where we earn our fee is the step after the score: comps you can show a buyer, every extension in one run, and a listing that carries the evidence. No automated tool, ours included, prices a premium one-word .com reliably, which is why Domain Name Wire's own advice was to judge these tools on ranking rather than the dollar figure.

For the other tools in the same test, see our best domain appraisal tools comparison, the HumbleWorth alternative page, how accurate Estibot was on the same sales, and our Appraise.net review, the credit-based tool that ran highest of all.

Questions people ask

NameWorth questions, answered

How much does NameWorth cost?

NameWorth's pricing page lists four personal and business plans: Hobbyist at $9.99 a month for 250 lookups, Gold at $24.99 for 750, Platinum at $49.99 for 1,750 and Diamond at $99.99 for 3,500. Enterprise plans run $499, $999 and $4,999 a month for 20,000, 40,000 and 200,000 lookups. Quarterly billing saves 5 percent and annual billing 10 percent.

Is NameWorth accurate?

Partly. In Domain Name Wire's May 2026 test, NameWorth valued MakeMatter.com at $17,500 against a $15,000 sale, close enough. It overvalued the short names, putting MOTG.com at $54,500 after a $14,888 sale and Midnight.com at $3 million after a $1.15 million sale. Of four names with a known sale price, one came back within a factor of two.

Does NameWorth value .io and .ai domains?

No. Domain Name Wire found that NameWorth only values .com domains and declines other extensions. That is an honest limit, but it means a portfolio that mixes .com with .io, .ai or .co names needs a second tool for everything that is not .com.

Does NameWorth show comparable sales?

No. NameWorth shows a demand rating, similar active websites, related registered domains and a list of other extensions the name is registered in, but Domain Name Wire noted that it does not provide comps. It also found the extension data out of date.

Does NameWorth have an API or bulk upload?

Bulk upload starts on the Gold plan at $24.99 a month. API access starts on the Diamond plan at $99.99 a month and is included on every enterprise plan. The $9.99 Hobbyist plan has neither and caps you at 20 lookups a day.

What is a good NameWorth alternative for bulk appraisal?

Pick by what you hold. For a mixed portfolio, a bulk appraisal that values every extension and shows the comps behind each number, such as the DomainsDealer Investor plan at $49 a month with runs of up to 1,000 names, covers the gaps. For scoring huge .com drop lists cheaply, NameWorth's enterprise tiers cost less per lookup.

Value every name you own, not just the .com ones.

Run the whole portfolio with comps attached, then list the names worth selling.
