Streaming services see a surge in demand – what about streaming related domains?

March 23, 2020 by Raymond Hackney

Streaming domain names

Someone asked me if I thought the value of streaming related names would go up in value? Their thought was with everyone at home more and more new companies would look to provide a streaming service. Amazon owns the best streaming related .com, streaming.com, it points to PrimeVideo.com.

I don’t know you got You Tube, Instagram live, Facebook live, Twitch, Periscope, do we need more?

Maybe stream related businesses that help existing services or subscribers enjoy streaming better.

Ariel Shapiro published a piece on Forbes that the networks are seeing a boom come to their streaming entertainment services.

Streaming services see signup spikes over the past week, boosted by free trials, with Disney+ up 300%+, HBO Now 90%, Showtime 78%, Netflix 47%, and Apple 10% (@arshapiro90 / Forbes)

Topline: As Americans brace for spending weeks (or months) inside as the coronavirus pandemic spreads, they are subscribing to additional streaming services, with Disney+ proving to be far and away the most popular choice.

  • Between Saturday, March 14, 2020, and Monday, March 16, 2020, the number of Disney+ signups more than tripled compared to the same period from the week prior, according to data provided exclusively to Forbes from streaming analytics firm Antenna.

Do you own streaming related names? If so are you receiving an uptick in offers?

I own one CelebStream.com that did receive a $500 offer that I did turn down.

    The increase in subscriptions is not surprising but the metric that will count will be the percent of retention once everyone is back to work.

    We own StreamingSystems·com #streaming #domainname. It’s 14 years old.
    We also own HowToStreamLive·com for the do it yourselfers, and the new digital marketers and content producers. That one is 10 years old.
    A surge in streaming is inevitable.
    Years ago (decade+?) I sold LiveU·com to the folks who produce live upstreaming. The surge in streaming consumption was inevitable. This pandemic and related sheltering just magnifies the need, but the need and growth were already in place.

    I don’t think it’s necessary to have the word stream or streaming or ending in .stream tld for a streaming service to exist/launch etc.

    Any domain with TV, Tube, watch, etc will do the job. Actually any domain with no stream tv tube etc will do the job as well.

    • SPECIAL.TV says

      March 24, 2020 at 3:56 pm

      I think you are correct,no wonder i have been receiving lots of views and offer for Special.TV .
      I will hold on for better offer or else i develop it.

    I have many streaming downs such as:

    4kTube.com
    4kSreaming.com
    Streaming4k.com
    Streamingology.com
    StreamingTown.com
    StreamingVille.com

    I’ve had many inquiries on these over the years, but no recent uptick. That being said, it makes sense that these types of domains are useful in our current situation.

    • Stu Maloff says

      March 24, 2020 at 12:06 pm

      I meant to type 4kStreaming.com

    We sold Streaming.com/net to amazon mid last year. Was a defensive play for them and we kept the .org.. Our client has others like MovieStream.com,etc. but no uptick in interest in other stream names. Its just a URL, need all the other stuff to make it successful.

    OTTChannels.com ( over the top media service on streaming)
    StreamingNYC.com
    BTCStreaming.com
    LiveStreamHK.com
