Jets Going To Super Bowl?

2011-01-23T14:07:00.007-05:00

The New York Jets have a charismatic and entertaining coach in Rex Ryan. But what the Jets do not have is the one-word, exact match domain for their brand- 'Jets' in the fact that they do not have the domain name- Jets.com. The Jets roll with NYJets.com and NewYorkJets.com for their web addresses. The Jets do not have the luxury of promoting the short name- Jets.com since Jets.com is owned by a private jet air charter company. In baseball, the New York Mets have the short and easy to remember domain Mets.com for high recall. However, the NFL team Jets missed the boat in the domaining world. Let's hope they can at least make it to the Super Bowl. Can the Jets repeat what both the 1969 Jets and 1969 Mets did for New York back in 1969 by winning a championship?

Top Brands Watch: Coca-Cola

2010-11-21T18:00:00.025-05:00

Coca-Cola is the most recognized brand in the world. Coke is sold in over 200 countries. The Coca-Cola Company uses a multi-channel, Internet marketing strategy. Here is a breakdown of some of the many Coca-Cola Internet properties and how they are using domain names for advertising and branding.

TheCoca-ColaCompany.com: The Official Company Website
Coca-Cola.com: e-Commerce site features My Coke Rewards, Shop Our Store & Coke in the USA and a change countries button (upper right corner)
Coca-ColaConversations.com: The Official Coca-Cola blog
Coke.com: re-directs to Coca-Cola.com
CocaCola.com: re-directs to Coca-Cola.com
Coca-Cola.tv: Coca-Cola TV (Spanish only)
CocaCola.tv: re-directs to Coca-Cola.tv

Even the top global brands are often slow to adapt to domain name strategy and new media. Coke seems to be laggards in some areas on the Internet as Coke has sometimes slowly adapted to new Internet techniques. For instance, Coke's company blog was launched in 2008. The company joined YouTube in 2006 and has not ramped it up yet as the official Coke YouTube channel currently has less than 15,000 subscribes and less than 4 million channel views (YTD).

Doing things backwards and breaking domain name rules? Domain experts would most likely agree a domain strategy of using their short, four letter web address 'Coke.com' as the main e-Commerce site and recommend both Coca-Cola.com & CocaCola.com to re-direct to Coke.com (the opposite of what Coke is doing today). As for CocaCola.tv and Coca-Cola.tv (best to go without the hyphen as the main site), and wouldn't it make logical sense to prioritize the Coca-Cola TV site which is currently only in Spanish- especially as video search is emerging so rapidly. Thus, it makes perfect sense to build out video site as a global TV site (multilingual for all countries!). Moreover, Coke.tv does not reslove but would be more powerful as the go-to web address for Coke TV instead of Coca-Cola TV or at least co-branded as two video sites.

In sum, there is always room for improvement with a domain name strategy and even for the big time pros like Coke. Who owns the powerful, category defining, generic, four-letter (4L) domain name- 'Soda.com' (currently a parked ad site)? Coca Cola is numero uno as a global brand but their naming and branding is not perfect. Red Bull kicks their butt in the energy drink market, don't they?

P.S. Also, we suggest 'CokeBlog.com' instead of 'Coca-ColaConversations'. The "Keep it Simple Stupid" approach ;)

* Coca-Cola is the first company featured in our new 'Top Brands Watch' series about top global brands use of domain names in advertising.

What is your advertising slogan for your brand? Do you change it every year the way top global brand Coca-Cola does?

Coca-Cola is consistently ranked as the top global brand. When companies use slogans, it is in their best interest to trademark their slogans and add the domain names for their advertising slogans as part of a naming strategy.

Top Global Brands Naming & Branding Strategies

2010-11-20T16:04:00.009-05:00

As mentioned in a previous blogpost, roughly 30% of the Top 100 global brands use short names of four letters or less (2L, 3L & 4L). Furthermore, the top brands using short names of five letters (5L) or less equate to 45% on Interbrand's Top 100 Global Brand list of companies keeping it simple and easier for recall with branding to their customer base. We have not counted the six letter name (6L) companies yet, but it is safe to say that the majority of these top brands use short names that consist of six letters or less. The extreme rarity of short names with available domain names leads to high values for quality names. If you are a start-up, you know how difficult it is to claim a top notch domain name for your company. More importantly, it is smart, sharp and aware to purchase elite domains for your business. Your naming choices are worth their weight in Gold.

Going forward with Domainertising (formerly Inside Domaining), we will be studying and analyzing some of the top global brands as case studies into how these top brands have mastered naming and branding strategies in the advertising world both online and offline. The reasoning behind Inside Domaining's re-branding to Domainertising is to combine the business topics of naming and advertising without pigeon-holing ourselves to the domain industry. In order to broaden our audience, we will be using jargon that people understand when it comes to advertising and Internet advertising. Most people do not understand domain jargon and the domain industry as a whole is way too small compared to the power domains have in generating big money both online and offline with the right naming strategies and modern Internet marketing techniques.

In an effort to shine a light on the big time pros- the successful global brands, Domainertising will attempt to bring the masses out of the darkness of traditional thinking into the creative new media mindset. We will start with Coca-Cola's marketing approach. Also, we will be adding share buttons to be displayed at the bottom of each blogpost (for now you can use the twitter & facebook buttons to the right of our home page... oh, & many thanks in advance; do it now & do it as a habit please! ;)). We will share our ideas with you and strive with our mission as a team to raise domain awareness to those who know the value of advertising but have not yet grasped the importance and intrinsic value of high quality domain names.

If you have a vested interest in the domain industry, we ask for your support in sharing Domainertising strategies of these top brands as "proof in the pudding" that naming works. Please feel free to share our blog posts virally via email, re-tweets, facebook, etc. Let's be team players. The domain industry is too fragmented and needs some teamwork in order to ramp up. Let's spread the new word- "Domainertising" and reveal the best kept secret to Madison Avenue once and for all. Let's do this. We will all benefit.

Hulu Documentary of Legendary Cuban Musicians on Internet TV

2010-11-19T20:42:00.008-05:00

Hulu - Search:
The Buena Vista Social Club Documentary is an inspiring story of Cuban musicians, who were re-discovered many years after their heyday as top music performers in Havana.
We recommend this as a fun, uplifting film to watch. The Bueno Vista video is free on Hulu with some video ads.

The talented musicians (forgotten from the world and never promoted internationally until the documentary put them on the global map) in the Bueno Vista documentary reminds me of the hidden talent some domain investors have had over the years.

Thankfully, Ron Jackson has covered some of the top pioneers in the domain space in his archived cover stories dating back to 2003. You can read all the domain industry's inspirational cover stories via this Dn Journal link: http://dnjournal.com/archive/coverstory-archive.htm

Perhaps some day there will be a documentary on Hulu from Ron's excellent coverage of the Internet entrepreneurs he has interviewed, who embraced the power of domain names and capitalized on their vision with admirable success.

Best Global Brands Ranking for 2010

2010-11-19T17:55:00.017-05:00

Best Global Brands Ranking for 2010

1.	Coke
2.	IBM
3.	Microsoft
4.	Google
5.	GE
6.	McDonald's
7.	Intel
8.	Nokia
9.	Disney
10.	HP

After Domainertising reviewed Interbrand's 2010 Top 100 Global Brands, we noticed a common naming strategy of keeping names short. Roughly 29% of the Top 100 global brands use short names and/or acronyms (4-letters or less) for their easy-to-remember brand names. When selecting a brand name think big with a short, memorable domain name.

Though not on the list, let's discuss Facebook's naming strategy from their original 'The Facebook' name. Amazing it took Facebook this long to figure out FB.com is the ticket to co-brand alongside Facebook as it recently acquired the 2-letter domain. Remember the line in the Social Network movie when the Napster Internet guy schooled Zuckerberg to lose the 'The' in the young company's TheFacebook.com name & go with Facebook.com.

We say the hell with even this shorter version of Facebook.com from the original TheFacebook name as said in the movie, and we suggest to Facebook to re-brand entirely with 'FB' and brand the power of a short, extremely rare 2-letter domain they now have- FB.com. FB.com is far cooler and cleaner than TheFacebook.com and Facebook.com by a long shot. Some of the top global brands have figured out the obvious- short brand names are cool. This is not rocket science.

Soccer fans set for up close and personal 3-D experience | Reuters
Excerpts from Reuters article...

"People have already embraced 3D cinema and because Sky's 3D service uses the same kind of technology, we're confident there will be demand for sport, movies, concerts and drama in 3D."

The move into 3-D broadcasting follows hotly on the success of James Cameron's 3-D movie Avatar, which this week became the highest-grossing movie worldwide partly due to 3-D engagements.

The sci-fi film had racked up a box office total of $1.859 billion Tuesday.

ESPN will roll out its 3-D network in June beginning with the World Cup soccer match between hosts South Africa and Mexico in Johannesburg.

Greater New York Media Online Investments

2010-01-22T15:18:00.036-05:00

Long Island, NY- Rarity means value out on Long Island and that is an understatement. How many high quality domain names are there for Greater New York Media? How many for Long Island? How many great domains are there for your niche industry?

Frank Schilling, a domain investor maverick, has a way with words in his assessment on the scarcity of meaningful, descriptive domain names that rarely hit the market in the many different verticals in business. The cream of the crop names are long gone Schilling says, and he elaborates by saying "Even if you back-up and cast as wide a net as possible, our decade of research and experience reveals perhaps 5–7 million words, numbers and phrases which ultimately have practical utility as a domain name. As you dig deeper, you begin to discover that perhaps 100 domain names or less make a meaningful website or descriptive-name for any given niche topic, with perhaps 5 or 10 being of very-good or excellent quality. When you consider the hundreds of millions of companies and individuals which want to control their own destiny and enhance the location of their website, there simply are not enough “good” names to go around." (NAMedia)

Long Island and Greater New York media has how many category defining domain names? LongIsland.com (Website Since 1996) comes to mind first intuitively for Long Island. Amazingly, LongIsland.com is on auction Saturday January 23, 2010 at 1pm EST at the TRAFFIC Domain Conference in a competitive live domain auction held in Las Vegas: RickLatona.com. Rarely does a category geo-domain of this caliber trade in the open market. And how about the scarcity of a name for Long Island TV? LI.tv is your answer.

How many 2-letter combinations are there for any domain extension? Less than 1,400 based on a 26 letter alphabet and this clearly is evidence of the extreme rarity of a 2-letter domain. It is no wonder short 2 and 3-letter domain names have been such high selling domain assets. Growing up on the Long Island Sound we listened to LIR (Long Island Radio) while driving down the LIE (Long Island Expressway) or boating on the LI Sound so "LI" is ingrained in the minds of Long Islanders and the Tri-State Greater New York area's population in the area of 14,000,000 (14 million). LI.tv is memorable. LI.tv is ideal for branding, co-branding or as an online video extension. LI.tv is a golden opportunity to stand above the crowd.

LI.tv is available for purchase or joint venture.

TNT - home
New York, NY- Cable TV Channel TNT.Tv, owned by Turner Broadcasting (Time Warner), strategically uses the extremely rare three-letter dotTV domain name 'TNT.Tv' for TNT's official Internet TV Website.

The power of naming and branding is exemplified by top listed, major companies predominant use of short 2-3 letter domain names (acronym domains) and 4+ letter, one word, generic domain names developed strategically into household brand names through brand development and high recall advertising.

More importantly, imagine if you will for a moment, the mid-90s when domain names emerged as the Internet came alive compared to where we are now in the infancy stages of domaining, e-commerce, online video, mobile Web and new social media.

TGIF Domain: LiveWebcast.TV

2009-05-01T05:08:00.018-04:00

We skipped this week's 2-For-Tuesday domains; however, here's the TGIF domain name of the week- LiveWebcast.TV which is somewhat comparable to LiveStream.com though a dotTV domain name. LiveWebcast.TV has a more popular, intuitive ring to it, as evident by the more popular keywords- "Live Webcast" vs. "Live Stream". Moreover, LiveWebcast.TV has a strategic, universal, classic dotTV extension for an online video Website. Point blank "Live Webcast" features a more relevant keyword combo than "Live Stream". "Live Webcast" clearly has the better keyword search marketing stats (see below stats). Nonetheless, as you know, LiveStream.com recently sold for $100,000.

LiveWebcast.TV is available for purchase via SEDO.

By the way, here's "proof in the pudding"- check out the online video search term keyword stats: Goog search results for "Live Stream"= 3.63 million search results & don't foreget LiveStream.com is the $100k name. What do you here? What do you SAY? The bottom line is the better & more effective keyword combo- "Live Webcast" is worthy and a force to be reckoned with- 5.03 million search results. But you don't need me to point out the obvious. dotTV is a specialized niche for sites that operate solely as Internet TV/ Webcast site destinations.

Google Executive, N.Y. Times Compete for Local Ads in New Jersey- Bloomberg.com

2009-03-12T17:10:00.037-04:00

Google Executive, N.Y. Times Wrestle in New Jersey for Local Ads - Bloomberg.com

New York, NY/ Maplewood, New Jersey- The New York Times joined the fray this month with a Maplewood blog. Their prize: online ads from local companies -- the fastest- growing source of revenue for the news business. - Bloomberg.com

The New York Times does not own NewYork.com (Domain Investor Leland Hardy does), NewJersey.com or Maplewood.com as strategic online extensions to their NYTimes.com online property. If the New York Times used a premium geo-domain name strategy to attract local advertisers, they would gain a competitive advantage by multi-channeling their media company to compete in the tri-state (NY, NJ & CT) area's regional online ad market.

Moreover, the Maplewood rivals described in the linked Bloomberg article clearly shows how some traditional and new media companies, as well as Madison Avenue, do not understand the power behind high-profile geo-domain names as online extensions to a media company's brand. In this instance (read linked Bloomberg article by clicking this blogpost's headline), the New York Times has created a blog geo-targeting Maplewood, New Jersey to compete for local advertisers by using a sub-domain (Maplewood.blogs/NYTimes.com). The competing Google executive is using the domain name Patch.com to geo-target the Maplewood local online advertising market.

More importantly, in order to geo-target the tri-state regional and local Internet ad market, media company's would benefit greatly by using a geo-domain strategy of premium geo-domain names. Listed below are some of the Top premium dot-com & dot-tv geo-domain names that make perfect sense (if the extremely rare geo- domains were attainable) as an aggressive, strategic play for a major online media player competing for market penetration in the Greater New York tri-state new social media arena:

Top Tri-state Geo-Domain Names for NY, NJ & CT :

NewYork.com/.tv

NewJersey.com/.tv

Connecticut.com/.tv

NY.com/.tv

NYC.com/tv

NJ.com/.tv

CT.com/.tv

LI.com (Sold for $500,000 in 2008)

LongIsland.com/.tv

LI.tv (7,500,000+ population)

In sum, premium geo-domain names are the answer to the future of new social media and local search marketing.

Top 10 City Newspapers in Trouble

2009-03-10T06:27:00.010-04:00

Globe on list of imperiled newspapers - BostonHerald.com

The Top 10 papers in danger, according to 24/7 Wall St., include (in order):

1.) The Philadelphia Daily News, the smaller of two jointly operated papers.
2.) The Minneapolis Star Tribune, which has filed for Chapter 11 protection.
3.) The Miami Herald, hurt by the state’s severe real estate collapse.
4.) The Detroit News, the smaller of two papers in the Motor City.
5.) The Boston Globe.
6.) The San Francisco Chronicle, a deadline for closing has been set.
7.) The Chicago Sun-Times, the smaller of two city newspapers.
8.) The New York Daily News, which could see losses in the millions.
9.) The Fort Worth Star-Telegram, facing stiff competition in the Dallas market.
10.) The Cleveland Plain Dealer, located in one of the nation’s toughest markets.

(Source: Boston Herald)

The Boston Globe owns geo-domain name 'Boston.com'. The geo-domains of the above referenced major cities will survive and thrive down the road as old media converges with new media. Traditional print media advertising dollars will continue to migrate online with the emerging trend of geo-targeted, local paid search marketing.

Bewkes Pushes TV Everywhere -- As Long As You Pay for It - Advertising Age - MediaWorks NEW YORK (AdAge.com) -- Time Warner's CEO- Jeff Bewkes hopes to put more TV on the internet, but he's going to make consumers prove they've paid for it.

Time Warner, the largest owner of cable networks including TNT, Cartoon Network, CNN and HBO, sat back and watched as broadcasters such as ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox tried to sort out the distribution of TV on the web. But now Mr. Bewkes, Time Warner CEO, has a plan to put all cable programming on the web in places such as Hulu, MySpace, Yahoo TV, or even YouTube. Of course, there's a catch. To get it you'll have to prove you subscribe to pay TV through cable, satellite, or telco. - AdAge.com
