Premium Domain Names - What Are They? (Jason Hobbs)
Jan 20, 2009
A premium domain name is one that is currently of value. For example, a very popular search for domain names will include any single word '.com' domain name. The fewer the letters, the easier to remember, the better of a domain name it is. As a result it is worth more. What many domain sellers/resellers aim for is finding a high interest domain name they can purchase and resell or use. Another way of telling if a domain name is a premium domain name is if it has been advertised before. If the domain has traffic heading towards it, this will increase its worth because much less work has to be done to get the domain name out into the world. These sell almost instantly and for hundreds if not thousands of dollars in the domain network. The easier the domain name is to remember, the higher quality it is. For example, if I had a domain named 'ibox.com' it would be very pricey. The 'I' is a very popular thing in this day in age because of the 'I-Pod' and the fact that it is only 4 characters makes it insanely easy to remember. It also has a very small word in it, and is very easy to say. 'I-Box'.
Another reason why domain buyers crave premium domain names is their marketability. Not only are they usually already out in the search engines, but they are very specific to what you will have on your website. This allows your website to rank higher in most places and even be found without doing a search. Marketers use this to their advantage when looking for places to advertise with. Also, people will crave to advertise with you because of your relevance to the topic they are looking to get an associated with. Your website will become very popular and in a very high demand almost entirely because of the domain name. A common mistake is people thinking that a domain that is ultra specific is better. Meaning a very long domain like 'wearesellingstuffherecheap.com'. This is simply incorrect. Even though you are selling stuff on your website cheap, you do not want to name your domain exactly what you are doing. If you had the website 'cheapstuff.com' that would be very valuable because you know what they have in the website, and that they are probably selling it just my looking at the domain name. After all, everyone wants stuff for cheap.
Premium domain names are very important in order to get your website popular quickly, and can also be sold and resold for profit by those domain sellers that choose to do their business this way. Either way, they are well worth the investment.
