BrandBucket Experience

[xtremex]

hello

I am new to BrandBucket. Before getting my hands on this

I wish to experience about brandbucket from my fellow members


Thanks

I tend to agree.

I don't agree with Bazabizo at all. I think ActionSwipe is the only one that may get accepted.

BB domain name selection is kind of wavy and not stable to be honest. Because I see some names on there and I wonder if the reviewer was drunk when selecting them. I wont be surprise to get some funny outcome but fingers crossed.
If BB does not go well, I will look for some other means to keep auctioning and emptying the stock and make space for newer ones as the domain business could be also time driven in my limited experience.

@hookbox, may I ask why and how you came up with that evaluation?

After analyzing names for many years you get a good feel for what it is good and what is not. I'm not saying that they are all bad but I am saying that some don't fit the BB model. I also agree that there are many on BB that shouldn't be there. Part of the brandable business model is to add mediocre names because it helps the cream rise to the top and justify higher pricing.

I think PlanSignal may be accepted. Maybe UpHint but I doubt it.

BB love the pattern CVCVCV.

Any invented or derived word using this pattern has a good chance of being accepted.
I am 14 out of 16 following this pattern.

If the vowels are the same or at least the 2nd and 3rd the same, BB will like it.

Yep. CVCVCV is great. I hand reg'd B E N O R O earlier this year, and it sold on BB within a month.

If you analyse some of the sales you might be forgiven for drawing the same conclusion about buyers... So TBH, I think they do a pretty good job of reviewing names. Standards may have slipped when they ramped up quickly, but quality seems to have returned to a more normal level now. Just my $0.02

@Brandworthy, I understand that both ends of the tube is brand-faulty, but I cited that just to highlight the norm of allowing brandable names go through before the mediocre names, rather than mediocre names going through at the expense of brandable names.
I have read a few posts here and I see people state that they have submitted names and then you see that its the very brandable ones that were rejected, there is nothing they can use to justify why a mediocre name will go through except question-escape phrases like "its human error" or "they simply do not have a selection framework like they claim on their website and someone just wakes up with hangover and points what he feels like" (forgive my cheekiness). And I also believe this could be the case of beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
Thanks

As much as we try to get our heads around it I think you have to believe they have a sound listing strategy based on a number of variables, one of the main one's being they think they can sell the name. It is very subjective I agree and its not a perfect science. I have some (I believe) excellent brandables rejected but maybe their focus was too narrow.

Is there a easy way to know who is selling a name listed on brandbucket and see his other domains there?

By the way, did anyone have any sale these last days/weeks? The thread became very quiet..

 

[JudgeMind]

You could email them at their Whois and ask them for a link to their portfolio

I made a good sale last week on BB.

 

[ajn]

I only deal in 4L Domains so BrandBucket is very choosy to accept 4L domain. Probably they accept only the best. i had 2 . One sold and 1 Listed and 2 Pending Logo.So Total 3

I don't agree with Bazabizo at all. I think ActionSwipe is the only one that may get accepted.

In my humble opinion I think these have a chance at being accepted:

Plan signal

Investment rabbit

Venture side

ActionSwipe

I like JustFourWalls but at three words and 15 letters its a hard sell. FourWalls would be a great domain. Cheers!

I personally think SimilarWay.com and HugeSprint.com are not bad at all and have a chance at being accepted too. What do you think?

Brandables are very subjective so yes it's possible.

10 letters total for each domain is good. But sprints are usually fast not huge. If I had a sports/athletic/consulting/marketing startup up would I call my company Huge Sprint Inc.? To me its not that attractive.

Same for Similar Way. Likewise, similar way's applications are too broad. What does it mean? What kind of industry could it represent? The word similar is not very engaging. To me it means average, normal, like everyone else.

But that's just my opinion.

PlanSignal isn't bad but wouldn't be my first choice. Investment Rabbit seems childish to me. I just can't see a reputable investment company calling themselves Investment Rabbit. Investment Fox and Investment Lion are better but I just don't see Investment and Rabbit as a good fit. Venture Side isn't bad but I would much rather have Side Venture. Action Swipe is definitely the best of the bunch and should get accepted.
