Directional only — a gut-check range, not an appraisal. Uses DQS + TLD + length; doesn’t know about comps, trademarks, or brand context. Treat as “worth looking at” vs “skip,” not a bid price.

Because "linq" is a recognizable word, linq.dev benefits from both type-in traffic and search-intent alignment. The 4-character length is premium territory; domains this short in established TLDs rarely reach open registration without being caught immediately. Balanced between vowels and consonants — typical for a pronounceable English-style name. .dev carries more industry-specific weight than generic legacy TLDs — it is a genuine first-choice for the right kind of buyer. No Wayback snapshots exist for this address, which typically means prior owners never developed a public site. At DQS 51, the name sits in the mid band — not an automatic buy, but worth evaluating against a specific use case rather than on its own merits. The domain is currently in the Redemption Grace Period — the original owner retains the right to restore for roughly 22 more days. It is not available to register today. The signals are mixed enough that we'd only recommend the name to someone who already has a concrete use for it rather than as a speculative play.
