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.

Beauty Branding – Buzom.com
Today I’m branding an imaginary brassiere company that specializes in custom-fitted bras. I was surprised to hear a number of women discussing breast reduction surgery because they couldn’t find a bra that actually fit!
From the NYT Daily podcast…
The Appeal of the Smaller Breast
Why are increasing numbers of younger women undergoing the cosmetic reduction surgery?
But if I were entering the market with my new AI-assisted sizing and fitting app for full-busted women, what could I call it, and get an exact-match domain for, that wouldn’t break the bank! That’s right, Buzom! A 5 letter domain makes it easy to say and spell in one sentence… Buzom b-u-z-o-m dot com. Buy It Now priced at Buzom.com.

The Onion For Your Campus
I listen to a ton of startup podcasts. I have for years. And I love to match domains of mine to business ideas. In this episode of My First Million (cued to relevant section) Shaan talks about a business idea he’d recommend to a younger version of himself just getting into college. In this post I’ll try to match domains I have for sale against this idea. Now a kid just getting into college won’t be able to afford even the 4 figure names I’m pitching here, but Shaan is actually reaching out to look for someone who wants to start this business, as a network of college news sites, and Shaan has a budget and knows a good deal when he sees one. So here we go… First up is skrole.com, a nice 5 letter domain, short enough to spell out loud as you talk about it, that connects to the idea of scrolling through your news. I have it listed as a Buy Now at DAN, for $5999. With payments if you need them. But what if you wanted something a little zanier, a little more irreverent. Here I like skrewed.com, at $9999. A few more to throw into the mix, qlunk.com, at $3999, or a personal fav (which I don’t have listed because I’m saving it for a project of own) TurdFarm.com. Point being, if you’re looking to name your startup, I may have something perfect for you. And if I don’t I know where to look, and about what you should pay for it. Drop me a line.
