Accurate Names

This question may seem incredibly obvious to anybody reading. At its most basic level, lets look at it this way My name is Chris, you would not get my attention with a “BOB!” or “PETE!”, well, certainly not as quickly!

There’s very little difference in the fundamental principals of internet domain names. The more accurate a name is to the product, service or information is, the more likely it is to grab a net surfer’s attention.

One of the most important elements in determining a domain’s value is to look at the number of people who search for that phrase each month. There are a number of tools that can do this including wordtracker, old yahoo overture data and google keyword analysis. These metrics help show the domain’s potential, as an accurate name to a searched term leads to benefits in search engine ranking for that term. It is also possible to determine the (approximate) amount of type-in traffic a domain receives, and this is a very valuable asset to a domain. Domains which are extremely accurate are very valuable, and generic domains with direct type-ins usually convert into the highest advertising yields.

This site was formed to allow the marketing of a collection of premium domain names to the public brands which will benefit the most. To stay up to date with th latest domains to come on sale please be sure to sign up for the newsletter.

Domaining Lessons

Well, if there is anybody reading this, (which I do wonder!) you may notice a change in the blog and it’s contents as of this post…

Earlier in the week, it came to my attention over on the domain forum namepros, that my earlier vision for this blog was not being well received, due to the publication of rss content from other blogs. Although this in itself is a common practice, and all posts were linked directly to their respective author’s posts, the posts were being published in their entirety - an oversight on my part due to my inexperience with syndicated feeds.

I had originally decided to start pulling rss feeds from some of the industry’s top blogs after the popular site domaining.com decided to alienate some of its userbase by deciding to charge. Knowing that a fool like myself can put together an rss based site (albeit badly - I’m sure I could have learnt) I can completely understand why people were unhappy at being asked for a membership fee.

Seeing an emerging potential gap and having just installed this site a couple of month’s earlier and yet to begin blogging, I decided to try and build a similar service to domaining.com. I decided that it may drive users to sign up for the newsletter I have been working on (it has a large number of private investors but relatively few ‘domainers’ so far) and failed to consider it might ruffle a few feathers of those who originally wrote the articles.

Upon realising my error I confirmed with many of the authors that it was the reproduction of full articles, and not the syndication which was not permitted. I have since decided that inspite of this, it would be a smarter decision to offer some original thought and put it down to experience. i have removed all syndicated posts so it is a little bare around here now! Brrr! - is it getting colder?

The conclusion

From now on Accurate Name will be my personal blog. I will continue to bring you my ‘pick of the drops’ service, although I have to admit that like most of my online life, this has been neglected in favour of turkey, brussel sprouts and lots of festive obligations. Haha. I’ll introduce a few more features, including an available domain list, some of my development stories, sales, successes and learning experiences like this one. If I am honest i don’t know what direction it will go in, but I’ll give it my best shot.

Happy new year everyone, may it bring prosperity to all who strive for it.

Here we go again with another list before Christmas of all the best dropping domain names. As always, do your own research before making a bid, but these should be some of the best names around and the ones dropping at a registrar partnered with a drop service are organised accordingly. Enjoy!

A little later than I’d hoped due to a hectic week, but better late than never - here’s my pick of the domains I see dropping today. As before, the domains are organised to show the best place to backorder (if known), and I have tried to demonstrate why the names are worth a pop! As with last week’s post, I am looking constantly for feedback to try and improve this service!

Snapnames domain backorders

poem biz - a very string keyword in a lesser sought extension may offer a bargain opportunity! There are some other .biz one word generics dropping of lower keywords- if you want them too just drop me an email and I’ll sort it out!

einstein net - a very brandable .net with a number of potential end users. Should be some type-in traffic too!

gonzo net - could be some good type-ins here in this hot domain which nods towards hunter s thompson, as well as an adult niche generic. You’d be a fool not to get involved if just to watch the bidding action!

parakemas com - Not fully researched but this one has a low alexa ~300,000 so should be some traffic

polytechnic net - nice traffic to this generic .net

sportszone net - a very strong brandable with some residual traffic

stuff9 com - good links and low alexa, do your research!

kag net - nice lll.net, pronounceable

Namejet

I just had a great idea to bring a new service to the blog! I’m calling it pick of the drops ‘cos that’s exactly what it is! I will try and do it every few days (or thereabouts!) - some of the names will be advanced warnings, some you’ll have to jump on to get in the auction in time! I’ll see what sort of reception it gets and go from there!

My intention is to highlight some of the best domains I see dropping, I’ll try and let you know the best place to backorder them by picking from their lists, and I’ll also see if I can find another few choices for the readers of this blog!

Well!

Here it is- accurate name is no longer just a concept- after a couple of months of development the site is launched and live! There’s a few domains added to the portfolio for sale, but the vast majority are still waiting to be added, including some super-premium category killers not seen before nor offered for sale. Accurate Name is well on its way to being the domain portal that I have hoped for. My name is Chris Thomas, some members of the domain community will know me as ‘gingeman’ and most of my closest friends call me ‘ginge’. I hope you find my blog interesting and informative, and you should certainly find it opinionated!

Please help me to improve the site by adding this site to your blogroll, and social bookmarking sites- the more successful the site is, the more readers I will have. The more readers I have, the more pressure I will be under to provide you with some kick-ass content so its a win-win situation!

Check back soon as I will be doing featured posts on almost all aspects of the domain industry, and you might even get to know a little more about me, my thoughts and life as a successful ‘domainer’.

Thanks!
