knot.ink

The SLD "knot" gives knot.ink built-in semantic weight, which shifts the domain's value toward exact-match search demand. At 4 characters it lands in the "very short" bucket, which is where the aftermarket premium lives — sub-5 names in any desirable TLD are scarce and defended. Balanced between vowels and consonants — typical for a pronounceable English-style name. In .ink the valuation compresses toward the commercial value of the SLD itself rather than the TLD premium. The Wayback Machine has no archived snapshots of the domain, suggesting it was parked or lightly used in any prior registrations. DQS 49/100 is the mid-band: the domain has real signals behind it but isn't an obvious standout. Mid-band names reward buyers who understand a specific niche. Because the name is still in redemption (day 4 of 30), its future is largely controlled by whether the prior registrant pays the restore fee. Bottom line: evaluate this one against a specific use case you have in mind. Mid-band names don't sell themselves — they sell when the buyer is already looking.
