xley.academy

The SLD "xley" gives xley.academy 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. Vowel-heavy and smooth to say aloud. In .academy 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 43 is weak; the combination of signals isn't strong enough to justify speculation at anything above the registration fee. Because the name is still in redemption (day 0 of 30), its future is largely controlled by whether the prior registrant pays the restore fee. Bottom line: the score doesn't justify an aggressive chase. Include it on a passive watchlist at most.
