   | Re: Rate These DN Sales Site Names
namescience.com httpaddress.com At first I liked httpco.com, but then I thought http://httpco.com just looks a little too strange in the browser bar  ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-name-discussion/43398-rate-these-dn-sales-site-names.html workingnames.com is ok, and cyberdentity.com has a branadable ring to it but maybe a little bit "cheesy"?. I don't like httpdomains.com or dnmarketer.com - they just seem a little clumsy to me. cheers, Sam | ||||

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=43398 Cyberdentity was the first I regged a while back. It occured to me while reading your posts, that it might have some branding potential in some other areas- ie interface w/online or other identity issues. The most recent was namescience. Have worked used httpaddress for past year. Agree, cyberdentity is a little contrived. I like workingnames- reminds me of "working title". Have never had a handle on quality of httpco. I really like namephile, but maybe it would go over peoples heads-ie not make the "phile" connection. TX for inut.

| httpaddress.com- resale 3characters.com- resale, 3 char specialization/ free listings, 3 char specific factss and info namephile.com-info, articles, domain name history, links portal/ select, "featured" names for sale namescience.com same/ perhaps more analytical- methods of analysis workingnames.com could focus on ppc names. ie names that are "working" for you.

| Problem is, there is no real science in domain names. What kind of serious analytics could you do?

| This is a simple poll I have run to acquire a concensus view on a list of names from fellow domain name marketers and resellers. I did not supply an option for "Dont really like any" or "NON of the above". However, this is a discussion thread, so for those of you that hold the view that these are all poor names, and have the need to express this viewpoint, I feel that it is only fair and reasonable of me to ask for an explanation. Additionally, (assuming that you are dn name marketers), I invite you, (the critics), to post the name(s) you have regged and/or are using for your marketing, to give all of us the oppurtunity to see some real-life examples of what good dn mktg names look like. I have already invited cmos to post his examples at this thread, and am still awaiting a response. How about you netPH? It is easy to be critical. It is a little more difficult to back the criticism up w/ rationale and personal examples, isn't it? cmos? netPh? critics? Come on out and show me your stuff. I await your response. 
A scientist would argue that everything can be broken down scientifically: (physics->mathematics->logic), just as someone w/ a more spiritual bent would argue that everything can be broken down metaphysically. That aside... Domain names can, to a degree, be broken down analytically. We are, of course, not talking particle physics, here. Although this idea is still in it's kernel stage, (ergo, my preface of perhaps), I think it would be possible to create a Db that contains name info, ie # of links, search term usage, ppc stats, metaterms, SEO results, demographics etc that could be broken down and analyzed to provide useful information. Not an exact science and perhaps not a "serious" one, depending upon how one defines "serious", but useful, neveretheless. One "experiment", for instance, would be to park a name in every available category at Afternic for 6mos and then move the same names to Fabulous, and 6 mos later to Sedo. I for one, would find the results intriguing. as well as, useful when making decisions about what names to park where. This is one example of a very simple analysis that could be made. I, (and I am sure others), can think of several other simple, as well as more complex, analytical experiments and studies that could be devised, that would be of interest to domainers.

 | well namescience and httpaddress are the 2 best ones... the later being the better one of the 2 IMO. But really I feel that there are better domains out there that are unregistered that could pertain more to domain selling, as the domains you listed are not bad domains, but they do not apply to the field of domain selling as much as other ones do. Personally, I'm kinda shocked that out of all the people, grilla can't think of more related domains, he is a very creative guy  |

  | A name like this (Domain Related) is generally what you make of it ! -  The appeal of them as a name can matter as far as Marketing / Catchy-ness - But there's so many Existing sites out there - you are somewhat better off to go With what you want ! - then forward the others you buy to the one you chose ~ IMO

 )But Grrilla, IMO you should do a bit of research and think of something similar to domainradar, in which you have a noun in the domain... like things such as domainsack domainbin etc would be ideal for a domain selling site. | ||||
