About DomainKnames.com™

DomainKnames.com™ started out as an idea for a better way to search, buy, sell, lease and create domain names. Over the past 4 years, this idea for a better domain name experience has developed into a company that has a goal of setting the standard in digital fashion. Now that we have stated the end goal, let's rewind a little bit and tell you more about how we got here.

What made us want to build DomainKnames.com™.

The co-founders of DomainKnames.com™ have a background domain name investing, creative design, software programming, business development, search engine optimization, search engine marketing, email marketing, branding, web traffic optimization and basically anything else related to a web business. With all our experience we found that one of the hardest parts for many new ventures is picking a domain name, followed by getting the business launched. Since we never were able to find a tool to do either one how we wanted, we started sketching out ideas on how to improve the experience. After we had a solid concept on the domain name experience, we started thinking "Well, what happens after a domain name is purchased?", which is where the real meat and potatoes of DomainKnames™ started to become developed. To solve the void of an easy-to-use design and development tool, we came up with the idea to standardize digital fashion and develop a tool that would bring it all together. In the end, we were able to create our first phase of DomainKnames, which we feel is an amazing tool for Designers, Programmers, Agencies and Domainers.

DomainKnames™ Website Marketplace - Buy and Sell Websites

Do you have a website that you want to sell? Does it make money, not make money, is partly developed or is fully developed? The DomainKnames™ Website market will be selling all types of website projects in various stages of development. We know that some people are really good at starting up a website but not so good at monetizing, while on the flip side, we know that there are people out there that are not that great at development but really understand how to monetize. Our goal is to create a market that connects these two types of people, along with many others.

How we think of domain names.

A domain name is a piece of digital real estate and as a concept may be compared to commercial real estate. With commercial real estate, a developer generally starts out with an undeveloped piece of land. This land may be at the corner of a busy intersection (address), with thousands of people driving by each day (traffic) or the land may be way off in the boondocks that is difficult to find and does not receive any traffic. These two variables (address and traffic) play a significant role in the value of the property and its candidacy for development.

The Domain Name Address

Let's take a look at the first element, the address. The "address" makes it easy for the developer, lessee and customer to refer to the location of the business, just like a premium dot com domain name. It is easy to say and remember "the candy store is on the corner of US1 and Main Street", just like it is easy for someone to say "just go to Candy.com". The address is key. The address may also strong value in "brand-ability", which is how easy it will be to brand the address so people remember the location, similar to "Park Avenue, NYC".

Domain Name Traffic

The second element is what tends to carry the most immediate return on investment, which is visitor traffic to the property. Premium properties with great locations tend to naturally have visitors without any marketing. The address brings in the traffic because it is such a common word location that people are expecting something to be there. In the domain industry, this is called "Direct Type-In" or just "Type-in" traffic and is usually generated by very qualified visitors looking for a specific thing, since that visitor typed directly into the browser url window what address they wanted, along with a domain extension, which is most commonly the dot com TLD. This instant access to traffic carries a significant value and buyers can expect to pay a premium for this convenience. A developer can either buy a property that they can instantly monetize or they can buy a name with no traffic and invest in SEO and Paid traffic to get visitors. It really depends on the model, but if you can afford it, buying a premium name with traffic is a strong step in the right direction for any venture.

What Our Goal is with Domain Names

At DomainKnames™ we want to educate our visitors, which is why we provide a complete History, SEO, Search and Ad Cost analysis about each domain name in our inventory. We also provide instant chat and a message board per domain name in case someone wants to discuss the name directly with us or leave an open comment for the domain community. Either way, we want what is best for you.

What are we talking about when we say "Digital Fashion"?

DomainKnames™ is creating the standard for how fashion is applied across our digital world. This includes colors, images, gradients, fonts and saturations of the color. This combination of digital fashion elements is combined using the DomainKnames generation tool UI and produces a "KN" number™, which in turn is the identifier for that specific mix of digital elements.

What is in the Future?

We have quite a few things in the works, with the main priority being the success of our domain aftermarket and the launch of our digital fashion tools. If you are a designer, programmer, agency or business in need of marketing material, please sign up for our early BETA account by clicking here.
