How to get a domain name off a squatter

[dominatrix1]

We have a squatter with the .com of our domain name - he is an american guy we have offered £5000 for the domain but he does not want to budge. We cant really afford more than that which is a bit annoying as we are a start up.

The domain name is 1roof.com that we want . We have the .org

Also the domain 1roof.co.uk seems to be taken by someone but we cant find out who has this domain either.

What are peoples thoughts ?

I dont personally care that much about it - but our investors want us to get it .. this is what he said when we asked how much is was



Not an enormous amount given the domain.

You should do some research regarding domain name prices. There are a few sites that will provide rough estimates. Basically, there are several factors which affect a domain name’s value, including its general applicability, number of characters, recognizability, domain extension (i.e. .com, .net, etc.), branding potential, etc. – all factors that are in favor of the 1roof.com domain name.

Once again, I may be interested in leasing it to you.

Just let me know.

Thanks.
