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

VisionEdger, your way of seeing sites like BB should be more like this:

Let say you have something like Shopster, i ask you what you want, you say your desired price is 25K, you want 25K in your pocket and you don't care how much somebody else takes (why would you). You submit Shopster, BB accepts it and most of the time the price is higher than what you expected anyway, even after Logo, comission, bla bla.
If it should be lower, you can either contact BB and ask them if they can increase the price or if you are really unhappy with your final share, simply don't list the name and keep continuing to do what you did before submitting your name to BB for review.

Got two more domains accepted for a total of 14 now

If the buyers are happy that they were able to find a nice brandable domain, and if everyone involved is making money then to me that seems to be like the ideal situation.

Nice, have you sold any domains there yet? Also, it would be nice if you could name a few domains you have there.

I just got started with BrandBucket around 10 days ago, most of my domains are still in the process of being published (waiting for logo, although two of them are already ready).

PS: They don't like us to disclose our domains.

How much did you pay for the logo for the 2 domain names that are ready? Did you pay anything extra for the listing.

I have 2 domain names waiting for logo design since 20 May.

I haven't paid anything for the logos, but at the time of listing I agreed to let them add $100 to the final price for the logo (this was before they added the four and five hundred dollar options). I am not sure how and who decides which names to do first, but if its up to the logo designers then they probably choose the names that they think have the most potentials for getting sold first.


I am not affiliated with Brandbucket in any way, I guess it just happens that I have been able to get some good names lately that match their criteria.

Congrats on getting 14 accepted. How many domains have you presented to Brand Bucket so far? I am just curious of what the percentage is between accepted and not accepted. Did you list the maximum of 10 domains during each acceptance or did you do it one by one? I just wonder if its better to list one at a time or bombard them with 10 at a time and the names not get enough attention. Also, are the majority of the names aged? Are all the names that were accepted under 8 letters? Thanks in advance.

@oltimer, are the domains you submit hand registered domains? If so, how old are they?

All names accepted so far were between 6L to 8L
All names accepted so far were pronounceable made up words.
Names submitted in batches of 10
Some batches had none accepted
Some batches had two or three accepted
I say percentage of accepted so far is about 15%
Still waiting to hear about some other names.

@oldtimer

great info.

Did you leave a comment or explanation for each domain or do you let the name speak for itself? Did you go with the price they thought or did you use the option of adjusting the price up or down?

The only comment that I left was " Thanks ".

I adjusted the price up by around 20% to get to a nice number, but I also chose the 10% discount option.

Although I am happy to have several names accepted already, but the true test will be if they actually sell. I probably am going to hold of on registering more domains until I have at least one sold.

And guys remember that I just got started with BrandBucket and so I am still learning myself.

Thanks for the info Oldtimer. Everytime I see your name I think of my grandfather. Are you actually older or is that your old in domain years? LOL

They didn't give me the senior discount last time I went out to eat, They said I was too young yet to qualify for that.

I have been a member here for a long time (almost time to get my ninth star), but domaining has been more like a hobby for me that helps keep my mind active.

Now that's enough about me, lets get back to brandable domains.

Here is a useful tip:

When you go to the homepage at BrandBucket try sorting the listings by “ Date added (newest to oldest) “ , then scroll down halfway down the page past all the featured listings (they always show up first no matter how you sort the listings) until you see the new listings (they have a little green tag on the top left hand side that says NEW), now try to analyze why these domains have been accepted and why some of them are priced more than the others. (don’t disclose anyone’s listings)

One of my names was accepted about 10 days ago and it is still pending the logo. In your experience, how long does it take for the logo to be created and the name to go live?

 

[ibidu]

Got two more domains accepted for a total of 14 now

How long did it take them to get back to you?

Btw, soon you will be owning 90% of the company

 

[oldtimer]

How long did it take them to get back to you?

About 3 to 4 days on average.

It seems like they are getting much busier now that everyone here has started submitting more domains.

doing the logos seems to be taking longer than what it took to get accepted, still waiting on logo for about 12 domains.

I think I asked this earlier, but can one do his/her own logos for BB? I know how to do this, and I like doing simple logos.

I don't believe that you can make just your own logo, but if you are a professional logo designer then you might be able to register at BrandBucket and then every time a name sells you will get the allocated amount that was chosen for its logo.

PS: you can go to the BrandBucket homepage and click on the top right hand side corner where it says “ domain owners and logo designers login here”, then below the login area there are two squares that explain how to register as domain owner or logo designer.

I believe the submission form also includes a section where you can attach a file.
