Market Value

Search Engine Term Popularity. Certain terms are more commonly used within leading Internet search engines. Commonly used terms are indicators of domain demand and value.

Commercial Value

Commercial Value or "Brandability". Branding potential for a domain name is a key driver of domain name. One word memorable domains (i.e. Photography.com, Decide .com) or fun sounding names (i.e. Bullhead.com) often have higher inherent demand and value than less intuitively memorable names.

Website Appraisal

You may not have thought about it, but your website is an asset (ask your accountant - he or she will probably refer to it as an "intangible asset"). Since it is an asset, it has a value. A lot of legwork is needed to ensure you receive an objective assessment for your website.
A website appraisal is comprehensive - the report typically runs about 25 pages in length. Some of the elements that receive attention:

The usability of your site

The e-business sophistication of the site and the organization behind it
The cost of creating the site, using standard rates for html and program coding, as well as graphics
The brand value (what is sometimes referred to as the "goodwill") of the site
The unique visitors to the site (trend information)
The certified value of your domain name.

Inbound Links (Back Links)

Having links from other websites to yours is a critical part of search engine optimization. As well as the obvious bonus of having people follow these links to your site, inbound links provide the following benefits:
Search engine robots follow links between websites. The more inbound links you have, the more often robots will visit your site.

Many search engines count links to your site as "votes" for you. They assume that if many websites link to your site it must be high quality. Page Rank is Google's system of counting links.
The general rule is that the more inbound links you can get the better. Getting more links should almost certainly be near the top of your priority list when optimizing your site.
