- Honestly, it was a tangential search. I was looking into some marketable trends (vaping and smoking devices) and came across terms in different languages. I own Hooka.io so I started looking for pipes and stumbled across pipa.io. After researching it I found how versatile a term it was and felt I couldn’t wait to snatch it up and use it for a future project.
b. Which market did you feel the name would be best suited in?

c. What research did you conduct prior to purchasing the domain?- Music (Chinese cultural instrument, Pipa), and a Flute in some language.

- Project Management field of study (Participatory impact pathways analysis)
- Smoking Pipe
- Kite (Portuguese)
- Wine Barrel or Cask (ie alcohol storage)
- Has slang connotations in a few cultures also
- Arguably the hotter of the two Middleton sisters, Pippa (British Royalty)
