Domain names have no specific meaning. However, it is very easy to pronounce and melodious and the spelling of the name is much easier. We can call such names brandable domain names. Brandable domains don't really have much value. If it has an end user then it is possible to get a lot of value. Users usually have to wait a long time to get a branded domain for sale. You can buy a 5 liter or 6 letter beautiful, melodic pronunciation domain. However, no one can say when it will be sold.

Hi

a brandable domain, can be any term or phrase, that a business uses to associate their products/service with.

it could be single word, made-up word, two word domain or even multiword phrases, like those used in slogans and tv ad campaigns.

domainers don't decide what's brandable, we just acquire, in hopes of reselling
it's the users of such names, who decide if the domain fits their purpose.

having been member here since 2002, i've seen a lot of crap labeled as brandable
and for sure they will never pass the sniff test.

years ago, domainers were looking for names like yahoo and google
as years passed, domainers were looking for single words names ending in double letters, like fiverr, etc

and today, domainers are looking for pronounceables.... but wtf are those?
many of them don't pass the spell test or the radio test,
but if they aren't real words, what test are they passing?

you may be holding a true brandable, but how would you know?
do you leave it up to a brandable marketplace, to tell you so
do you let them tell you amount to sell for
and if it doesn't sell in 1 year....
do you drop it, and go register some more?

:)

what is a brandable domain.....

imo....
