What's in a Name? A Lot If It's the Right Domain!
So, Afternic just dropped their list of sizzling keywords for September, and guess what? 'AI' is still leading the pack, with 'my' and 'home' not far behind. But let's not stop there. There's plenty more to unearth in this treasure trove of domain name gold.
But why should you care about a bunch of words? Well, if you're in the digital real estate game (and yes, that's exactly what domains are), these little nuggets are like insider tips on the stock market. Let me break down why.
Diving Into Domain Trends
Sure, it might seem straightforward. Pick a keyword, grab a domain, make bank... right? Not quite. There are nuances here that can mean the difference between a domain that sits there collecting virtual dust and one that has people scrambling for their wallets.
The Power of Popular Keywords
- 'AI' isn't just buzz; it represents a booming industry ripe for online branding.
- 'My' personalizes any service or product. It screams ownership - who doesn't want a piece of that?
- 'Home': With more folks nesting post-pandemic, anything home-related is hot property.
Remember when 'the.com' was considered too generic? Yeah, those days are long gone.
