karupsha.com
amkingdom.com

All three of those do more than 7 figures per year in sales, yet the domains themselves suck. It's about branding, not the domain.

Shitty domains? No argument.

However, their domain IS their brand. They are the same.

And, they make alot of money. But, so what? The point is NOT: can you still make alot of money despite crappy marketing?

The point is: how far can good marketing take you?

The argument that only domains with type-in traffic have big value is very 1998. That low hanging fruit was picked long ago.
