After a few weeks of weaker names, Namejet has some really good names today. Making up for the slacking inventory at Godaddy. Of course you can always count on a ton of LLLL.coms going for high price. You know LLLL.coms have risen to great levels when the unsolicited offers you get via email are actually good offers. They are still reseller prices but $500 and $1000 offers for names I paid $100 a couple years ago make me feel good. I actually overpaid for HDDH.com a few years ago and the value dropped below what I paid for it for a while. But now its soared past that level and I’m in to positive territory. Pretty sure anyone that bought an LLLL.com a year ago is doing just fine. And to the commenter that said the LLLL.com and the NNNNN.coms are a joke. I can’t see how anything that has this much value is a joke. Here’s today’s list. Click for current prices.
TalkingStocks.com 19 years old. Not sure if the stock forums are still popular but I know for a fact that stock blogs still pay well. A few bidders
InvestingNetwork.com Also 19 years old but no bidders. You can invest in a lot of different things
MassPass.com Lots of uses for this one. 13 years old. And it rhymes which is always nice.
WMP.cc he he Top bid getter on Godaddy is a dot cc. Then again, maybe that isn’t a good thing
GPHP.com Repeating Pee. Sounds like me after drinking. Four figures and climbing
GQHX.com Getting there as well. Q for quality
PBJD.com Starting to look like all no vowel, no v names are going to be four figures in the very near future
GayPay.com I think it should be the same as everyone else. Wait…you want to pay me to do what?????
DomainSAppraisal.com Don’t. Just don’t. The S makes no sense
Tongue.me Only one bidder at $12
OrangeGiraffe.com Pretty good name for $12. Only one bidder
HelpYouLearn.com Another nice one for $12. One bidder. I could always use help lernin
Julias.com Upgrade for a ton of places. And yet there is only one bid
PDIT.com 20 years old. At $200
Fertilize.com Great name. Good use for the lawn or pregnancy industry. As seen on Sherpa
Fertilizing.com Up for auction as well.
MarketWeek.com Sounds like a show I’d see on PBS on Sunday. 48 bidders
OnlineAssistant.com Another nice one. Obvious use
Toil.com As seen on Sherpa as well. Drew told me that if I read more Shakespeare I’d know how valuable it is
Among.com I wouldn’t know what to do with this one but a nice short dictionary word
Sprained.com Good medical name but having trouble with it as a brand
ChildbirthClasses.com The best part was the coupon for a free pizza
Magro.com Hoping to get this for $69. I’m about two years too late from that happening
Detract.com Isn’t my favorite on the list but 75 bidders are hard to ignore
Alpha.xyz Getting action because of that recent startup that bought alphabet.xyz

Barry,
You listed things that were hugely popular and then declined. But there was billions of dollars made and yes, lost. You think this fits into that category. I think you’re wrong. Only time will tell who’s right. Many of those you listed above presented amazing opportunity to make money if you thought they were a “joke” . Were you able to capitalize on any? Many people cheer or jeer from the sideline. I like to pick a side and capitalize on my thoughts and have some skin in the game. But that’s me
Hey Shane.
I’m a fan of your blog and thanks for the list. Some good ones on here.

Until they invent a new way to access, surf and index the internet, short and easy to remember domains will rule. Mobile is the access device of choice and short names work the best on a small keypad. The International market is proving that with the values of short names and combos going up. People speaking any language can remember them. I even like some number combos with the 0 at the beginning. It is supposed to be bad but take a look at your mobile keyboard. 09876 are all easy to reach and type. And then oh yes look at that .com button on the keyboard as well. 🙂 Do you think Samsung, Apple etc will put a .whatever button on their mobile keypad? They all ship with a .com button on the keypad. Fun times.
I think another HUGE boost to exact match .com and cctld domain names is Ad Blocking. If advertisers are unable to pump their ads on any site they pick then direct match .com and cctld’s will benefit. Natural traffic STILL flows to exact match .com and cctlds. Ad blocking software will make these exact match names even stronger.
