Dynadot

Are top 500 most registered keywords still helpful nowadays?

Spaceship Spaceship
Watch
dotDB recently launched the most registered keyword list in all domain extensions, and the top 500 are free of charge:

https://dotdb.com/top-keywords/

Without doubt that the top 1 is nic and the top 2 is www, I can also find some trending terms like crypto, covid19, drone...from the list.

However, to my surprise, many famous trademarks are also in the top 500 list like amazon, yahoo, whatsapp, microsoft...etc (Maybe those are registered for the purpose of brand protection since most of the trademark domains are not resolving or just redirecting to its .com.)

And the latest top 500 list reminds me the good old days of early 2000, when I was still a newbie in domain investment, I remember clearly that there was a Top 500 most wanted keyword list released by someone after the land rush period of .info & .biz, and I invested my very first money in keyword .info & .biz according to the list, I also screened daily expired ccTLDs like .cc, .tv by using the top keywords in the following few years, and I grabbed many top keywords in these non-dotcom TLDs, and flipped them for very good profits then.

I am just wondering if the most up-to-date list is still helpful for investing in new TLDs like the up coming .web or any other new extensions. Anyone thinks that we can still have a chance to take advantage of the most registered keyword list nowadays in 2021 and make good profits from it? Any feedback will be appreciated, thanks!

Hi

"they"....
already took the top keywords of all time, and introduced them as new extensions.

the best thing you can do now, is try to find available keyword that fits one of them.

and that will be hard to do, because the best are either reserved or have premium registration pricing.

i had an old list of top kw, released years ago with yahoo metrics
wonder wat happened to it

imo....

Only if it matches to searches otherwise it is only making it harder for selected industries.

There was this one
Oh yes! Thanks for sharing, this was exactly the earliest top 500 list I used to be familiar with about 20 years ago!

Comparing the old top 500 with the current top 500 keywords of dotDB, I can find that there are only around 130 old ones remain in the top 500 list, and below are the newcomers. Interestingly I can see many trendy keywords like NFT, ClubHouse, IOT, SmartHome... and some cannabis related keywords like weed, marijuana, thc...etc Damn... Why I didn't register these domains back in 2000. lol

We can also find out from the list about how much has the world changed in 20 years. :xf.grin:

Certain lists are only talking about the keyword registered in x amount of extensions. Other lists are keyword with prefix and suffix additions.

A properly curated keyword list is a work of labor. There is no free list that is available that will take the place of opening up excel and doing the legwork. Often overlooked distinctions are noun vs adjective. If you have keywords lists you need an adjectives only list with high selling keywords. And what about animal names? Cities? Verbs? It gets messy.
