I am looking for data related problems to solve

I am looking for problems to solve in brandable domaining. Is there any burning problems?

Yes, how to find buyers

How to value a brandable domain name.

Build the Estibot of brandables.

How about what to do to make buyers start chasing you?

That would be great but is it possible with brandables ?

Possible with anything if buyers buying habits are understood and leveraged. But this goes beyond "data related problems" because many other factors are involved.

I think that it could be interesting to see the reffering websites or domains used every day on BB and BR. I mean to see how many leads they have from each domain which redirects to their website. Like this, you can know how to valuate each domain, what people are typing to get there and in the end we will have a better understanding of what endusers are looking for. Also, to know the region and/or country from where they are coming from will be great. You will be a 'google analytics' of the brandables.

This problem has kind of been solved by alexa => http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/brandbucket.com
if you upgrade account you can see all brandbucket's secrets

Cctld stats and info as good as NtldStats.

I vote for that too.
I think it's also a data problem.
If a domain relates easily to a keyword/subject/problem... it'd be nice to find what other domains relate to the domain for sale (to be able to approach them directly)

If a domain is pureley invented, what sort of subjects could it be used for ?

My problem is finding the .com names rather than the buyers.

On one hand, I agree too with that too.

On an other hand, many if not most of brandable domains remain unsold.

For example, BB lists ~40k domains out of which only ~10000 get sold each year. And they are adding several hundreds each month.

So, for me, finding ways to sell brandables (or finding very precisely what the market wants to buy, especially for purely invented, meaningless domains) is more important than finding new ones.

Didn't really get what you mean by this.

This can solved. When on the move I tend to fiddle with my smart phone so it will be great if can use that energy into something else. Such as using an app that suggest quality names that are about to drop or available. So if I like the name swipe right if I don't then swipe left (nice substitute for a dating app).

You could look at the trends in brandables. Both the positive and negative aspects.

If you're a data miner, then there should be something to grab.

I like this idea too.

there should be a website or thread on np where domainers can pitch a domains to an online panel of cash buyers -

these could be made up of a brandables buyer a domain pawnbroker a lease specialist a registrar a broker a gtld buyer a keyword .com buyer etc can offer to buy a persons domain instantly

and it would allow people streamline their portfolios instantly

 

[Kuffy]

Don't most of the established sites already supply this service?

 

[Elon Swift]

firstly how to find the right kind of buyers for the domain name and also how to convince a buyer fully if it is confused or not ready fully at our price.

 

[Domains - Wanted]

...For example, BB lists ~40k domains out of which only ~10000 get sold each year. And they are adding several hundreds each month...

Actually, BB sales are on the order of ~1,000 not 10,000 per year!

i would quite like to see someone create a grocery drivethru

eg no click required

just order groeries verbally via an intercom wait in car for 3 mins for groceres to be passed through
serving hatch

or order groceries verbally for delivery within 20 mins

 

[platey]

by bb deciding which brands they allow a person to buy they effectively reduce the amount of brands available etc

its only a matter of time before someone creates a brand database that accepts all brands which would be the first and very quickly the biggest brand directory on the net
