Ok, so we can agree that registering Transcender . si was not a bad idea after all.
Well I've seen a lot worse... but enough about my domains.
What I can say after all the years I’ve been involved in domains is that a lot of it involves copious amounts of luck, and the only things that can potentially turn the odds in your favor are domains that make sense.
And even good names that make sense don't necessarily translate into sales.
I've had loads that were good enough for someone to immediately pick up when I dropped them, but every time I remember them and check they still all have hopeful landers.
BTW if you can't say the exact name you sold, can you say whether it was AI or tech related or just a good keyword?
Interesting discussion.
One view is that if .com or .ai are active then word drops value significantly because large organisations generally like exclusivity and brand strength.
Would love to hear everyone's view.
Well I can't rely on my own opinion, for reasons in the paragraph above, that what I think are good names aren't necessarily names people will pay for. (Whereas the abominations you see on DNJournal are.
)
It's basically a lottery if you don't have the top words or terms, unless you can identify or create a solid reason for someone to want a name.
The 'easiest' way, in theory, is to find someone who you know likes the word and places importance on it. That can mean selling the .COM to a business with a different TLD or in this case a defensive measure by the .COM or .AI holder, acquiring the .SI to prevent negative impact on their brand.
Additionally, active commercial use of a term - as opposed to a dead page, lander or fake AI slop site - suggests the term has commercial value and brandability with other people, and the brand itself may give the word or term more value.
