    discuss My take on brandable marketplaces and why it spells ”Au revoir”

    Hey! I’m a brandable domainer. I have been at it for years and I have amassed a sizeable portfolio. I am successful. I also love what I do. ”Brandable domainer” to me means that I value names based on their gravitas as a prospective brand. The quality of the name is not derived from past or...

    information Brent Oxley Loses Access to Create.com, Plus Millions of Dollars Worth of His Domains

    If $12 can significantly sabotage a competitor for years, justified claims or not, it will happen again and again. Competing businesses will shower eachother with frivolous claims made through secretly hired proxies.

    If anyone has questions, don't hesitate to share them, and I will do my best to try to answer. To answer @Sammy Jakes, my PF has been hovering below the 10k mark for a while in an effort to reconsider inventory that may not have the appeal once imagined.

    It is one of the first resources I share when asked where to start processing "this stuff". The reason is that it is an honest attempt to build on the actual science behind the merits of a brandable name, and not the usual search keyword gospel.

    Big question. At the end of the day, even if they may sell, I don't think they are functional brand names. I don't sell them, because I would not sincerely be able to recommend that route. In the spheres I concentrate on finding and acquiring names for, business names are brand names, not...

    question Will there be huge demand for AI domains?!

    Why, in this discussion, is an "AI" domain synonomous with a domain that contains the acronym "AI"? I don't think end users agree.

    Yes. My technique is to skim. I'm familiar with it's capabilities and limitations, and beg to differ. The tech is groundbreaking, and will change just about everything, but it should not by any means be confused with a human mind.

    Not from that data alone, never. I would look at the name. If it's valued by the GD system at $25,000 it is likely to have many of the explicit signals I speak of in the article (signals which I acknowledge, but that are not my north star). This for me will signal that many investors will take...

    discuss Are domain names becoming less valuable in the near future?

    Some futuristic musings. There is convergence of potentially very disruptive technologies going on. There are also things that will not easily reform. One of those things, beside the infrastructure of the internet, is the existence of TM law. Brands will just never allow "outsider" content...

    To 'curate and simplify' this massive feedback experience for BB, I created this post. Bless my heart. It is not in any way meant to be aggressive, but progressive. Feel free to add to the list. The post is meant to be a personal list of the questions and points raised in this thread, for...

    discuss Input Sought: How to move from $$$$ to $$$$$

    XXXX material is rare enough, but XXXXX material is 10X the rarity. My advice is to keep slowly building a solid portfolio and reprice the best continuously. "The best", as time moves on, can very well be a handreg from 5 years ago. Build from the ground up to allow higher prices, or even...

    Thanks for the questions! I will try to elaborate more on the popular dichotomy between "data" and "intuition" after the next part is published. Remind me if I forget. Basically, I think that the complex operations and computations related to language that we tend to do instantly, effortlessly...

    1. I don't invest in numeric domains. Numerics can have brandable aspects on the chinese market, but I don't know squat about that. As to LLLL - sure - but very selectively and from a brandable perspective. I don't use abbreviations in names. 2. If you mean "exact match" of a search term, it is...

    I don't do "brand protection" registrations. Alternate extensions, other than dotcom, are for one word brandables from an investment perspective. I only have very few. I'll leave them alone. I have no .net or .org.

    news Agents Everywhere: AI Agents Become More Powerful, Personal and Omnipresent. What Does It Mean For Domain Names?

    Thoughtful post, but I think it kind of evades the most crucial thing. (This is not uncommon, science and people in general tend to omit it. It's a blind spot, perhaps for engineers in particular, who are focused on different things. Like how to connect A to B. Most domainers tend to belong to...

    Yes. Limiting length and syllables as a general rule is necessary. Names need brevity. It is however, like most any rule, not an exhaustive answer. There are exceptions, and there are additional considerations that can kill a shorter name and promote a longer name. As to rules, there is a second...

    legal Domain Front Running by Lumis.com

    I help businesses buy domains from other active businesses all the time. I think I have not done them wrong, or forced them to sell. They are capable, adult human beings that can make business decisions just fine. They are capable enough I would say to also realize that if a person contacts you...

    I have had an eye on AI and automation for example, for a long time. That very recently started to move in terms of domain interest, as we can imagine. Besides new tech that I think is inevitable, I'm also attracted to the big unchallenged service sectors of Real Estate, Insurance, Legal...
