Are you bullish on emoji domains?

[Anonymous No.11308711]

This boomer made millions during the dotcom bubble and now he's investing in emoji domains he believes will become really popular soon, For instance the burger emoji domain could be valuable to Burger King, or the coffee emoji to Starbucks. Some big companies have invested in emoji domains already like Budweiser (the heart and beer emoji forwards to Budweiser.com) and Sony Pictures (the smiling blush emoji plus clapperboard emoji). What are your thoughts?

It's simply a bad business decision to make your website unreachable to anyone who doesn't have both a smartphone and a keyboard with a particular emoji set. There is no profitability in this.

Boomer bullshit which was (not so) interesting in 2012 or so. Was only working on .ws domains, Coca Cola bought some. But for real, where is the use case? I would rather register 10 new fancy startup-name .com's kek

That's why companies are for now using them to forward to their ".com" website. But in time to come emojis will become more and more widespread and accessible to devices.

I misread, no need to be rude. Why are getting so you so angry over such a trivial topic? My point still stands that there is no standard, and it would be almost impossible to enforce one since it would exist at the app level.

Even though he struck gold with generic domain names in the 90's, I think this is a gross misunderstanding of why zoomers like emoji names.

This is like applying boomer logic to a zoomer phenomenon. I don't think it's a very good idea at all.

"hamburger" dot WS? maybe if I could just put the hamburger into the search bar on my phone and it automatically goes to the website or something. If it's the top result when you punch in the emojis I guess I could see it working.

[Anonymous No.11309000]

>>11308994
There's no standard for how they should be represented brainlet. Just go through all the different emoji sets on your phone and imagine your boomer mother trying to figure out which ones are equivalent without a reference.

>boomer
That would explain why he thinks that domain names are valuable, because he made his money back in the day when people would try visiting shit like "videogames.com." Discoverability and search engine placement is king, not stupid one-character domains. People care less and less about actual domains; think about it: how many times have you seen people type "facebook" into the search bar instead of just going to "facebook.com"?
