Rather good most of those should go for $500 each or more (I'm not offering on them have too many domains).

I think Parfaites and CreativePlate are sellable to the right buyer. Now you have to figure out how to price them appropriately. I find that one of the more time consuming and difficult parts

I think you are closer to being on the right track.

Creative+Plate = solid two word .COM. Those always have a chance to sell. It could be used for something related to food.

Ulord - It's better than an average LLLLL in my view. It has U+word which is a decent format.

Please refer to my Namepros post for recommendations. It discusses various insights that could be helpful. Someone has found a good use for the domain Parfaites.fr, showcasing effective domain usage. Research the domain's previous use on Archive.org and its registration history on Whoxy.com to gather comprehensive information. Using metrics is beneficial before buying a domain, aiding in informed decision-making. Additionally, remember to avoid consuming coffee or alcohol while conducting domain research, particularly during the early hours of the morning, to maintain clarity and focus.

Definitely better (y)

First two are the best IMO.

CreativePlate can be of good use, cooking classes, even art design use.
uLord - not really a commercial name but there may be a religious buyer out there. Rest do not stand much.

You may want to share your train of thought behind buying these. That would allow for more actionable advice.

For example, why did you buy these two?

mdtok. com
soxs. org

Thanks for the question, @Bravo Mod Team. It forces me to think about this in a slightly different way.

For MDTok, I was thinking telemedicine + people’s fascination with TikTok. And for Soxs, I was thinking 4L taken in many (30) exact match TLDs. In retrospect, the .org should have maybe caused me to pause.

@Molly,

Unlocked this thread to reply; please feel free to lock it again.

TikTok is a great brandable because it's a pun on a dictionary word that is very common: ticktock.

If the popularity of TikTok had spurred a trend among startups to buy and use [Word]Tok names, then it might make sense to invest in names like MDTok.

As an example, Bitly.com and others caused [Word]ly domains to be very popular for a while.

And for Soxs, I was thinking 4L taken in many (30) exact match TLDs. In retrospect, the .org should have maybe caused me to pause.
Regardless of the extension (.org in this case), never buy a domain based on a single stat alone.

Even if all of the stats tell you to buy it, still don't buy it unless you're confident that there are multiple people who would benefit from buying it from you at a higher price in the near future.

Use your gut, intuition, and reasoning skills based on all of the research you've done to decide how confident you are in that.

We hope this help.

An interesting detail is that musical.ly is the predecessor of TikTok.

TikTok merged with Musical.ly on August 2, 2018, merging existing accounts and data into one app, while retaining the TikTok name.

Getting ahead of these trends (e.g., [Word]Tok) is a lot more speculative (i.e., risky) than jumping on them after they're already established (e.g., [Word]ly).

Avoid the former until you're successful with the latter.

Many thanks, @Bravo Mod Team! The Soxs .org discussion got me wondering, are short (4L) .net & .org worth investing in? I guess I’m wondering if the shortness somehow makes up for it not being a .com, even if not a one-to-one ratio.

That depends on the kind of investing you're looking to do:
  • If you want to make quick flips to other investors for minimal profits, then you can study the market of short domains and earn some money that way: https://report.ggrg.com/ (courtesy of @Giuseppe Graziano)
  • Otherwise, shortness is a bonus but never the deciding factor (outside of .com).

For example, very few (if any) 3-4 letter .net/.org domains are going to be better than these:
  • Business.net
  • Finance.net
  • Technology.net
  • RealEstate.net
  • Electronics.net
  • Banking.net
  • Healthcare.org
  • Renewable.org
  • Environment(al).org
  • Preservation.org
  • Sanitation.org
  • Education.org

Despite those being much longer.
