What Makes A 'Good/Sellable' Domain Name

Hey Guys, brand new to domain flipping but really want to give it a go, i have been reading the forum over the last few days/week and i am learning new things everyday, i guess this question is aimed at the more 'advanced' domain flippers, but knowing what you know now about what 'potentially' makes a good domain to sell, is there one thing you wish you knew what to look for when you where just starting out like me ? Any advice would be great Thankyou.

 

Shorter is better
Brandable
Easy to say
Easy to spell
Focus on .COM
Check previous sales

Check out namebio.com and dnjournal.com for a list of the recent domain sales, it will have you get an idea of what type of names sell.

 

shorter and meaningful is the key...

 

Thanks so much, thats a massive help

 

choose a domain that has a real market - cars, credit cards, cosmetic, etc. and find a domain name that either has those words or would work well with those industries, such as "mycreditcardreviews.com"

don't pick names that don't make sense, such as "boyzeemvz.com"

but catchy names sometimes works, such as "wildfireflies.com" though it's a risk.

 

carhy names with one or two word in domain name
