Jingling .me domains are impossible to forget
According to Sedo's 2012 annual domain market study, .ME extension made its way into the top ten most frequently traded TLDs. In fact, it is on the 8th position below .com, .de, .net, .co.uk, .org, .eu, .info and above .es and .nl. It is closing on its two forerunners so stands very well to stay in top 10.
Everybody knows .DE stays for Germany and that Germany is for .DE. However there is not much available left in this internet zone and the difference between .DE and .ME is only one letter making it even catchier.
Hence we are starting to see some German keywords names being used and even for sale at Great Domain Actions by Sedo:
Dainese, the world's leading specialist in protective wear for motorcycling, mountain biking and downhill skiing, is promoting wide range of its personal products and clothing under "I Dainese Me" brand. It employs dozens of VIP ambassadors such as Carolina Kostner:
Amr Mahmoud, of Profile.com opened another good year for .ME by completing the sale of reviews.me for US$ 10,000.00. He purchased the domain name back in 2011 for $1,150 on one of the registry held auctions. This transaction has an effective IRR of above 500% - quite impressive for this class of domain names. Well done! Our congratulations go to both the seller and the purchaser.
The buyer is Yotpo with a product about social reviews. Late last year they raised $ 2.3 million from various investors to compete with sites like Reevoo. They had few more names on their rebranding list, but could hardly beat it with anything else. Review.Me could have had a potential, but as indicated on their website: "it is not for sale". Reviews.Me is in the stealth mode on RocketLaunch platform currently accepting subscription.
Beautiful Bar Refaeli of under.me doesn't stop. Even not during the Christmas. Now she is advertising her new season line under "deliver.me" jingle:
Deliver.Me campaign slider
Apparently as it appears via the whois records, Skype [Microsoft] has acquired SpeakWith.Me domain name.
Although Bar Refaeli of under.me doesn't own kiss.me [yet] she decided to launch a catchy campaign under this jingle:
Kiss.Me mailing banner
Three letter domain names are scarce, sort of. With 26 letters, there are only 17,576 of LLL.ME ones. When it comes to pricing, deriving the right number can be difficult. Brands-and-Jingles, being currently busy with one premium transaction, has compiled some small research on the subject. This post will present the respectful findings.
