SHRUMZ.com & SHRMZ.com — How Much Is That Vowel Worth?

Psilocybin is rapidly becoming a go-to therapeutic tool in a wide range of treatments. Many communities have already decriminalized the possession and cultivation of psilocybin mushrooms — and the momentum is growing.
From a domain investor’s perspective, it’s a hot space. I have two prime names listed on Afternic: SHRUMZ.com and SHRMZ.com. You can grab one… or make an offer for the combo. It may be a little ahead of the curve, but if you’re looking to brand your psychedelic mushroom business, I’ve got you covered.
Click through to find out what I think that extra vowel is worth!

SPYLE.com

Sometimes it’s just that I love the sound of a word or the way it roles off my tongue. That’s what happened here when I saw that Spyle.com was dropping. It’s a bit of a stretch, but ‘Spy’ meets ‘Style’ is beside the point really–it’s a slick five letter domain to brand any sort of fashion or product around. And priced to sell. SPYLE.com

Enhancears.com

Now hear me out (lol). As someone with partial hearing loss from decades of playing in loud bands, I can personally attest to the effectiveness of cupping my hands behind my ears in order to hear better. Especially in movie theaters or where there is a wide dynamic range of not great amplified sound, cupping my hands behind my ears makes the difference between understanding what’s being said, and not. So some kind of simple physical device I could wear like a hat or clip onto my glasses has been an idea/on my radar for a bunch of years. That’s why I have these photos (from rarehistoricalphotos.com) on my hard drive and ready to share in this post. When I saw this domain dropping I knew it would be perfect. Can you help me manufacture them? They would be miniature versions of the ones in the first photograph.

DistortionPedal.com

Another diamond in the rough. A 20+ year old domain that was available only because most would assume you’d go to DistortionPedal.com to find guitar distortion pedals… not an awesome online AI platform for building custom Deep Fakes. Or an edgy branding & marketing agency, or one of those PR firms that specialize in reputation management and damage control. Thinking outside the box!
The challenge here will be all the SEO that points to a bunch of boring places selling distortion pedals. But you’re only a couple of viral videos away from claiming your online turf with an awesome ‘top of mind’ domain you can build an epic brand around. DistortionPedal.com

TROGZ.com

I just love a 5 letter brandable domain! Radio test? “Trogz, t-r-o-g-z.” I’m going to use it to brand an edgy shoe company, but this would be great for anything edgy in the fashion world.
Pricing? The value derives from how ‘top of mind’ a name can be. There is a direct tradeoff between how easy your name is to remember, and how much your ad spend will be to put your new company on the face of the map. That’s why I think this is a great name at a great price. TROGZ.com

Heavy Duty… FUKTON.COM

Sometimes you find a domain that’s dropping and you love it but can’t think what purpose it could serve in the world, what problem it would solve for someone building a business.
But then suddenly you realize… it would be perfect for …
How to convey something large, heavy and powerful in an edgy, concise and meaningful way that will be impossible to forget once you’ve seen it.

Fashion Branding – GetGirly.com

You ~~might~~ will have a naming idea for your startup and find the exact-match domain is gone, or if it’s available, it’s going to run you 5 figures and up. If you’re really into the name you might turn to adding a prefix to the domain… i.e. you continue to call the company ‘x’, but your domain is ‘getx.com’. Other popular prefixes are words like, my, the, web, go, super, best etc. But you’ll find that if your keyword is a popular one, you’ll often find that those, prefix added, domains are also quite expensive.
Today I’m branding a woman’s fashion/beauty startup idea with a domain of mine, GetGirly.com. What I especially like about this one is that the ‘get’ part of the name… implying action towards, works very well with ‘Girly’. You wouldn’t have to brand as ‘Girly’, and the ‘get’ part is just a way to have a cheaper url, the brand itself can be ‘Get Girly’ and hold its own.
