8 reasons why Domaining is like IKEA

IKEA is an LLLL word.

Ah, it’s finally Phriday!

For those of you that slave away in some cubicle, or get a red neck from working hard in the fields – no worries: the weekend is here.

We thought about domaining and how much it seems to resemble the furniture store, IKEA.

Enjoy these 8 similarities we could point out! 😀

  • IKEA is a four letter word. A lot of domainers can’t afford three letter .com domains, so they rave about their LLLL .com’s instead.
  • The IKEA product names resemble the “gems” owned by part-time domainers: BJURSTA, HEDERLIG, KNOPPA and other such pigeon sh*t.
  • You can spend $8.99 on Swedish meatballs and a drink at IKEA, or buy a domain at GoDaddy.
  • Swedish domainers are a rare species, just like the number of Swedes that actually buy IKEA furniture.
  • Both IKEA and ICANNT formed in the 1940’s.
  • Sweden is a kingdom; thus, Rick Schwartz’s “Domain King ™” title has a lot of footprint in Sweden, where IKEA is headquartered.
  • Some domain portfolios match the quality of the IKEA catalog: colorful, confusing, overpriced.
  • Buying furniture at IKEA or registering domains, can be a shocking experience the first time around, but one soon gets hooked.

Here’s a funny video about IKEA products – have a great Phriday! 😀
