Sometimes i truly wonder about the value of my names because i never ask for opinions... always nice to stay "grounded" as they say.


I start thinking about a domain or two with the initial thought that "they are great", but i cant help but wonder if its all in my head at times..

seanboy

nice names

pchip

Awesome names!

Phronesis

nice - almost regged bankaccount.mobi back in the landrush. Lots of good ones I passed on... Best of luck with it.

pcaero

super-duper...


pc

w1ww

Actually why would a bank use such domain for online banking ?

though, they are cool names!

they are handregs from like 5 hours after landrush... i was suprised these wernt preregistered by someone.. i believe they were reg'd in the same wind as i did Advertisers, GPSnavigation, FastFoods, EMailAddress, LiveVideos, etc.. all sitting unregged in the wild hours after landrush

domaindigger

What else would they use?

dag

That's when I picked up SavingsBank, Shipment/Shipments, DownPayment, Lends, and many more. Ah, the fond memories of what was still available then...

great name - mobile banking is slated second to mobile gambling - next LBS, GPS, multimedia - great pick-up

mjnels

yep, good times.. except that was part of the problem back then.. so many names were available i found myself questioning .mobi's that would without a doubt now sell for 10-100 times their registration fee.

Alleluia!! I can relook at my names and wonder 'WTF was I thinking?!?!?' Then look again later that day and think, 'hmm, not bad'. Then again, and swear I'll never reg another one! Seeing others posting and selling those great names, you do start to question your regs. Especially those of us who didn't pre-reg names. However, you are not one with too many worries about having good regs! With your collection, you could run the whole 'mobi internet!!'

presumably their own bank names

i.e. bofa.mobi or citi.mobi or wells.mobi

what bank would be likely to use bankaccount.mobi as it's wireless banking portal ?

people relate to their banks by their names not by a generic term

i could see it used a shopping site to compare accounts or costs or interest rates or especially as a site to help people choose a new bank etc but not as a wireless banking portal

mjnels

yep, thats how i think of it too.. but i guess a bank could redirect users to their own site with it..

domaindigger

What about for a site that allows you to login to the mobile banking of numerous banks? You visit BankAccount.mobi and you can login to any bank rather than remembering the exact address of each bank. Sounds more convenient to me, especially if you have more than 1 bank account.

Thats like an open door to Phishing!

Not if its a secure, encrypted, verified and trusted site. That's up to the developer.

I don't think banks would like the idea.. Anyway this is a good name, good luck it with it !

I questioned them too. I let some amazing names go looking only for 'mobile' use stuff. doh.

While I agree that it wouldn't make a good banking portal, there are plenty of other uses that a specific bank could want it for that still make it a great name. What bank wouldn't want to be able to tell their customers, "To check your balances, make transfers, etc., on your cellphone, just go to BankAccount.mobi."

It definitely lends quite a bit of prestige for a bank to be able to say that they own that, and certainly makes for nice simplicity for their customers. That's what makes generics so great!

those all things you do at a portal, there's no way bank of america would ever tell it's customers to go to bankaccount.mobi, they would be too concerned about phishing, spoofing, security etc plus they are obssessed about branding

wireless banking will be huge

i could see it suceeding as a referral site where people would go to find a new bank, especially one that offered good wireless options, you could probably develop a good affiliate program referring people to new bank signups or even do the signup yourself and then refer people

but this whole thing is really going to be have so secure and failsafe

i really hope that the big banks actually start to buy and use mobi's instead of just doing a mobile version of their dot coms which is what they are doing in europe i believe

Pred

?
because of overture.
it's what people type in. when traffic picks up for mobi, which of course it will, these will be highly desirable for a bank to fill with their information. or you could pack full of affiliates.
the term in the uk is current account( which i own )
alliance & leicester bank bought up the com & co.uk 's in 97 while the others were sleeping. check them out.
overture is through the roof.
great names, worth a LOT
