Value of a Premium Domain Name

In today’s world, meaningful, generic, descriptive domain names are of equal if not more value than company names themselves.

Test it yourself – if ice cream comes to mind, will “Dreyers” be your first thought? Or might you look up IceCream.com instead?

“Premium domain names are expensive for the simple reason that the ease with which customers can remember and access them means that they help websites gain a critical advantage in today’s competitive marketplace.”

Michael Gargiulo

It is the reason why Jamie Siminoff nearly bankrupted his company to buy the domain name Ring.com, and why countless others want the “best in class” domains.

“Generic, descriptive domain names are so rare, there just aren’t enough good ones to go around.” “There are a finite number of dictionary words in the English language.”

Frank Shilling, Jeffrey Gabriel

“Good domains are rare — very rare — and with such rarity comes value and prestige. Furthermore, very few great domains are even available for sale.” – NameCorp

小米 – Xiaomi acquired Mi.com for $3.6 million to improve their name recognition as they expanded into international markets.  Mi.com is MUCH easier to remember than ‘Xiaomi.com’.

京东 – Jing Dong paid US$5 million for JD.com, upgrading from 360buy.com. They enjoyed a savings of $20 million per year in search engine advertising.

奇虎 – Qihoo 360 (China) paid $17 million for the domain name 360.com to increase its name recognition for potential customers outside China.
