Startups love domains with alliteration and you can find them easily using the Dictionary Word setting at . This yr I've sold the dot coms: DollarDesk, BusyBoomer, PurePolicy, SpeakSuite and FactorFlow. How about you?

Every data point I've ever seen indicates end users prefer shorter domain names and the sweet spot is 5 to 9 letters. #domains #entrepreneurs #workathome

Low tier domains have an insane ROI but mid tier domains take much less time to manage. Do you favor one style or the other? Or do you strive for a mix of both? Here's an optimistic analysis for someone with high acquisition/selling skills.

This summer my sales at BB were painfully slow. Luckily Squadhelp saved the day with a big wave of winners. In recent months, however, the script has flipped and BB is top dog (including 5 sales in 24 hrs last week). What have your brandable marketplace sales been like this year?

Squadhelp now has almost a quarter of a million Premium domain listings. Do your listings get lost in a sea of options? Or do other listings bring more traffic, visitors, views and potential buyers to your domains as well? What do you think?

Venture Capital (VC) investment has a direct influence on sales of brandable domains. Looking at this chart it's no wonder we've seen a sharp decline in sell through rates (STR) since 2021. What's your prediction on when we'll see a turn around?

Things got pretty thin this summer and I began to feel the weight of my $50k plus renewal bill. So I did some serious cutting. Anything rejected from brandable marketplaces, with only 1 TLD and hadn't sold in a year at $995, got the axe. What's your dead wood criteria?

It's interesting that most of the keywords on this Afternic list are notoriously slow sellers on the brandable marketplaces. The only "hot" brandable keywords from this list are: Capital, Home, Health and Life.

When you buy a domain at least realize that the money invested is buried and it will be buried for a very long time. There is no cashier. They are not liquid. You own it and there is less than a 50/50 chance you will sell it in YOUR lifetime. – Rick Schwartz

A marketplace's STR can be misleading as average sale price is a critical factor. A more accurate measure is Earnings per Listing (EPL). IE total annual revenues divided by the total number of listings. Here's three examples of a 2% STR. Which marketplace is better? A, B or C?
