Domain Trends 2019

[Croc]

I’m not selling anything listed in this thread. I’m just sparking a discussion about the popular domain trend of forming a well-known compound word with a single dictionary word + one of the new gTLDs.

Some relevant examples that are actually used today:

• Panic launched a site for their upcoming portable game system on https://play.date
• A growing digital media agency in downtown Orlando uses the catchy domain https://big.vision
• A mega church in the Orlando area uses the clever domain https://real.life

If you come across anymore “compound domains”, let us know about it in your reply.

What do you think about this domain trend overall?

Nice, simple way to keep your domain as close to your brand/name as possible.

Good thread! I believe that this will gain a bit more popularity, but then die off. My guess is that it is popular because it is new and out of the ordinary. When it gets old, it won't be as interesting as before and companies will go back to .com. Most people don't even know that TLDs like .online even exist, and will probably not bother to memorize hundreds of new extensions, making it impractical for companies to use.

Similar idea, but not exactly the same thing. I’m talking about compound words/domains where each domain part stands on its own.
