Poll for Name Protection Product Concept

[Rob Monster]

I previously invited input for a new brand name for a product/service that protects domain owners from unforeseen risks and provides optional insurance against economic loss. The concept was introduced here.

After a few days of reviewing domain submissions, we now have a screened list of prospects for this project and are looking for some input on name selection before making a final decision.

 

[Abdillahi Abdillahi]

I don’t care for any of those.The closest to the desired feeling is NameSoldier but I would expect the com. I am sure it was hard because “name” names are mostly taken.Thats why I suggested DN. Surprised not to see any “domain”or “brand”words in this list.

For the reasons Rob explained here, Brand domains were excluded. We did have some.

I sent InspectMyDomain.com, VerifyMyDomain.com and DNInspector.com. Although I agree that there are clearly names on the poll that are better than those, I think that at least one of the three above should have made the poll. Even if the first one are 3 worders, They clearly describe the scope of the project.

NameSeal.com is my choice from the list. It's memorable and it makes a very strong brand name.

I know it's disappointing ( I submitted eScreener.com myself ) but they probably got too many really nice "more fitting " names than they could possibly but on this already large list . so I'm sure they appreciated everyone's imput but could use every name for the second round .

The only domain on the second round that is even close to what I would choose is dnprotect.com ... nothing else is even close if you think of what the domain should tell about the product , ease of branding ... it is not confusing ... short ..

 

[Hasan.khan]

NameProtector.com is my choice, it suits for the project and the whole idea.

 

[Mary Muse]

I thought my selection of NameGoals.com was a solid, confident .com brand, but who knows...

GL!

 

[Vimal Kumar]

Liked NameSeal.com of the lot.

Short, crisp and easy to recall.

Must say that I was disappointed that my entry NameAttest.com did not make it. It had the credentials to be in the most likely list. Pity.

 

[Rob Monster]

Late entrant that was on the bubble for me but want to hear from others:

DomSure.com

Hot or not?

Yes, but there is a simple reason. Your asking price was $15K for a me-too hand registration. Next time, bait the hook by presenting the name without presenting the price. I am sure you would have accepted less but by presenting me a hand-registration for $15K, you take me for an idiot. Guess what, I am not. Pity.

Hi Rob, you mentioned about name assessment report and domain protection ? Or only domain protection ?

 

[farouk20]

Hi Rob, you mentioned about name assessment report and domain protection ? Or only domain protection ?

It is both -- assess and insure. The assessment feature will be free like a domain appraisal (see appraise.epik.com), but then if you want to protect the asset for what it is worth, it will cost you a premium that reflects the value and the risk. I believe the reports will break even or lose money, but the insurance product will make money assuming we can re-insure against the catastrophic scenario of a $1 million domain name going missing, e.g. through insurance fraud. Could happen.

Sure, it's a hand-reg, but aren't all domains at some point.

I'd understand your frustration if the name was registered within the past week, but it is ~2.5 years old?

Idk, that just seems harsh to me.

I quite like the name(seal) for this project, either way (compared to the other options presented.)

My 2.5 cents.

GL!

EDIT: seems Rob was arguing the price/quality of another name, not NameSeal.com. Agreed!

Seriously, it is a few days old:

I am glad for the business -- he bought it for $5.49, less than cost.

I would have tested it since the name is not bad. The issue was that I was annoyed by the outrageous asking price.

Contrast that with the current front-runner: VettedName.com, which was a late entrant. That was a name I bought after the poll started because a Nigerian domainer suggested it. I think he told his friends to vote for it, so the poll might have a little bias on that one. The competition is still wide open.

 

[Mary Muse]

SORRY -- I totally thought we were going on about NameSeal/com!

Ya, agreed, that name isn't at all premium.

Cheers

NameSeal.com is still in the running. The branding could be slick.

 

[Larion]

NameSeal all the way.

 

[vravis9]

After reading all the content about purpose...

And going through the list of names...

NameProtector.com

Screaming to get votes.

Actually it is most perfect name in the list than anything else for the mentioned project.

It got my vote...

Not my name... don't care who is the owner.

Thanks,
Ravi

I don't have a horse in this race so I may analyze later (or not...don't want to offend anyone needlessly) but I will say there are a couple real 'barkers' in this list.

It seems there were a few more entrants, based on earlier thread posts, that were clearly better than some on the list. I have only taken the time to check two of the names offered, so there may be history issues on some of those names that caused them not to make it.

Just for giggles, why not in the future post/poll any and all names that are submitted (as long as they meet basic criteria) and then poll that list down to the top 25 for the second vote. Then take that list down to a final top 10 as indicated by votes. Also, require that each person that votes in the final round does so in the thread so we can be sure there is no impropriety in voting (company/employee voting, friend voting, etc.) as is demonstrated by the current front runner.

EDIT: I don't have any issue with a late reg at all. I've regged a few over the last several days that are quite good...my hope is that Rob's product takes off so much that a new niche for names will be born as the competition smells the profits!

 

[Sumeeth]

Thanks for choosing my NameAssurance.com and I have voted for the same. Hope this product is best for insurance products. Assurance is a synonym for insurance

@Rob Monster thanks for these new projects and these domain suggestion competitions, it really helps us to find new names as per requirement and obviously developing our skills in finding new domains for handregistration..
