Advice needed

[MasterOfMyDomains]

I want to start a website to sell all my domain names.
I have come up with www.OkDomainSales.com
Is this a good name for this venture,or is there a better term I could use than "domain sales"???

 

[bmugford]

I prefer a brandable term, but if you want to use a domain like this I prefer these formats

(Word)Domains.com
(Word)Names.com
Name(Word).com
Domain(Word).com
DN(Word).com

To me "OK" is not a strong enough lead term. It is kind of indifferent.
In my opinion the lead (Word) needs a more powerful meaning.

I agree,I dont like the OK part.

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

Thanks much needed input

 

[cwinhall]

To me the "Ok" implies the domains are not great... merely "ok". Deffinately lose that word from the name.

OK is not as good as 'Word', 'Global' ....
globalnamesale.com Free

Here is another domain GreatName.info, On auction now at

I like DomainCounselor.com

 

[lzy]

First thought that comes to mind?

Just "OK". Definitely go with another one. Good luck!

I would make a post in the domains wanted section with your budget and see if any namepros members private message ya anything good as I'm not crazy about "ok".

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

How about SpareDomainSales.com?
I wonder if people dont buy tires at OkTire because the tires there are just ok?
Thanks for all opinions,I am searching around,

whats better??

(something)DomainSales.com
or
(something)NameSales.com

I can score some wicked names with the .ca extension,,,,would that be as good??

 

[SpareDomains]

Even though I did quite well selling/brokering on SpareDomains I changed the domain as I felt "spare" just meant extra or some random domain lying around and didn't show any form of quality which is the same feeling I get on your "ok", I actually went from a 2 word to a 3 word domain as I preferred the image the 3 word domain portrayed, bottom line if your domains are quality you could put them on DogShitDomains and they will still sell, I would still try to get something a little stronger than "ok" though, I would hit the wanted section whether your budget is small or large as I'm gonna guess a forum full of domainers are sitting on a bunch of domains that could work in all price ranges.

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

Whats the 3 word domain you are using ,if you dont mind saying?
You have some great ideas too,thanks

 

[Rich]

I've never payed around with name portfolios but I like Brad's (bmugford) examples, these fit the best I think. NameBright.com is a good example, just get something memorable and catchy like NameFlare.com (avail). Score a wicked .ca if you'd like but I'd go with .com

 

[napa]

I would not use the word "sales", think of something else?

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

I need the word sales, I am selling domain names,maybe i should just use hornswoggle.me
I prefer when a name describes its content.
And somethingdomains or somethingnames.com they arent that easy to find.
I have found some nice ones with sales
anyone else not like the term sales in the domain name?

 

[MicroGuy]

... I am selling domain names

You are one of the lucky ones. My sales are off big time.

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

I have decided on my name it has Quality,in it.A fellow Namepros member is putting something together for me it should be ready tomorrow.

Thanks for all you input and advice,if anyone wants to purchase okdomainsales.com/net I jst dont have time to develop it and will let it go cheep.Happy Domaining

I think that "Sales" is a poor choice/not accurate for the type of site you wish to start. IMHO, it's usage would only be relevant when describing profits on concluded transactions or implying "discounted" or bargain domains.

I assumed the OK was for Okanagan since you're up that way. Good luck with your new site.

Ha, that's what I thought too.
I bought the LLLL in my sig for a different reason, but it didn't hurt that the 'Ok' is the common abbreviation for Okanagan around here. It's also the abbrev for Oklahoma.

On another note:
OK is used by literally TONS of companies as a brand name. They use it because it infers confidence, that everything here is gonna be fine. It's not in reference to their products/service being 'just okay'. It's a very friendly and familiar and even intimate term. That's why OKtire, OKtravel, OKcomputers, OKhomes, OKrealty, etc are all taken in multiple extensions and are used by multiple companies. Whether the OK stands as an abbrev for something, or for Okay, it's a very accepted term to put before many keywords.

All that being said... for some reason, I don't like the looks of OKdomainSales.com. Just looks clunky and used-car-lot to me. For some names the OK works, for others it doesn't, and IMO for this name it doesn't work. Even a brandable 5 or 6L would look snappier. And though most of the keyword+domain/s or keyword+name/s are taken in .com, there are still a lot of inventive brandables left out there and you can come up with something snazzier.
