If you want the next “it” website, you’ll need otherwise a dictionary-word .com or a brandable. Dictionary word .coms can fetch over a MILLION dollars apiece (take a look at everything from toys.com to candy.com, both selling for over $2 million each). For those with a smaller wallet, the next best thing is a brandable. If you choose a brandable, you'll likely want a domain that:
is .com (never use anything different)
There are literally dozens of new domain extensions available in 2015. The only one that really matters is .com. In fact, global information assurance firm, NCC Group, recently questioned 10,000 consumers across the US and UK regarding their attitudes to these new gTLDs. The figures aren’t promising:
49% of respondents said they felt uncomfortable visiting a web site using a new gTLD domain.
42% of web users reported feeling less secure online since their introduction.
Still skeptical? Read the full report here: www.thedomains.com/wp-content/NCC-Group-Internet-Trust-Survey.pptx In short: always use a .com. You will NEVER see a VOYA.buzz or VIMEO.nina -- serious businesses use only .com
is grammatically pronounceable/is easy to remember and type
Made-up dictionary words (aka brandables) are the most cost-efficient way to go. But not all brandables are made equal. You want something people will not only be capable of saying but also typing/putting on a brain cell. UNDER NO CIRCUSTANCE should you use a two-random-word domain, as it’s harder to remember. Never use a domain with a hyphen or a number. And most certainly, don’t choose a domain that does not follow the English grammatical structure! Many sellers will boast about having “pronounceable” bandables while hawking rubbish like XESDE.com (“You can pronounce this ‘Excess-ed with an E!” No, this is unpronounceable. You’ll likely lose 99.95% of type-in traffic if you use a domain like this). Don’t leave your website’s URL to imagination.
likely 5-6 letters, unless you have a grand budget
The fewer letters a domain has is typically the better. But brandable three-letter .com’s are typically no cheaper than $25,000. A pronounceable four-letter can cost over $5,000. Even five-letter domains can sell for high prices. A study of 100 5-letter .com’s ended with an average selling price of $11,310. Removing all $10,000+ sales, the average is still a healthy $3,682 each
This auction covers all three bases. Signical.com has that air of professionalism, and it’s almost too easily branded to believe. “Signical” has its usages in the mobile phone market, along with radio & television--pretty much any type of communication. It’s nearly impossible to forget, and it could easily brand a company’s existence with little to no effort. It flows out of one’s mouth with simplicity and no unwanted stress. It is a short .com, fun to say, and can brand a website’s identity as a professional’s online home. Whether your site is retail, services, or professional, this domain will give your website the image it needs to succeed.
Keep the age in mind: Not only do search engines favor older domains, aged domains give the feeling of establishment to visitors. People would feel less reserved and far more likely to trust a website on an old domain opposed to one using a newer domain. 15+ years will do that for you.
Along with the domain comes the professionally-designed logo, for use on you website and/or printed material. The logo evokes just as much professionalism as the domain! Perfect for stationery or fliers/printed ads/coffee mugs/tee shirts etc.
Plus, this domain is listed here at NO RESERVE. This domain WILL sell, even if the final price is only $1. Make a bid or to ensure you’ll walk away with the domain, a BIN of $1,945 is in place. Considering a few similar sales (Jokko.com $3,350 Treed.com $3,000), this BIN is a bargain.
This auction is for the following:
