Comment on What domain name is best, short and sweet or long and descriptive?

Comments

If it helps, I believe Google no longer heavily weighs keywords in domains because of the proliferation of names like coffee-maker-review.com.

There's a reason there aren't many high-value brands like "Table Manufacturing Company". Airbnb isn't "Other Person's House Rental", either.

Go with the name that can be the best brand. That might still be somewhat descriptive, but it doesn't have to be a synopsis of the site.
