The meaning of Duudes.com
The word Dude is a very common word, which is a friendly and casual way of saying guy. It is also an older word than one might think and has a very interesting (albeit uncertain) history that ties directly to the birth of the USA. “Yankee Doodle Dandy”, is a song whose melody exists since approximately 1750. The lyrics that are associated with the song were written by a British doctor, intent on mocking the American Colonials. A Yankee was a condescending term used by the British at the time that meant American colonist. Doodle was an uncultured person, and a Dandy was a person who was interested in how he looked, which could have the implication that the person had no substance, in other words was a conceited coward. This was the cultural climate that gave rise to the sentiment that America was distinct from Britain and they were unrightfully ruling the country.
In true American spirit, the oppression was crushed in The Revolutionary War of 1775. The arrogance of social elitism was put to shame, and the song mocking the Americans became a war song, enjoyed by all. Later the phrase Doodle Dandy became widely used to mean a fashionable city man, and it became shortened to Dude by the western ranchers who received city folk and gave them a ranch experience as a form of entertainment and broadening their horizons. This business model was called a Dude Ranch. Dudes were city slickers, unprepared for the hard life on a ranch, but it was recognized that they were versed in other ways of life that were alien to the ranchers, and there was no animosity in the term at that point. Ranch work and a simple life has a way of bringing people together.
With the passing of time, Dude became embraced and widely used by hippies, surfers, and other casual individualists. They would often stretch the word into Duude, to mean that there was something very important related to the guy. Perhaps something they needed to share with him, or perhaps they were just very happy to see them. The word has spread into mainstream language for many decades, even in other English speaking countries around the world, like in the UK and Australia for instance. Dude is associated very closely to a casual and youthful environment that is open to other people because all are considered equal. A place with no point of contention. Ironically enough, after centuries of evolution of meaning and usage, the word Dude is considered inappropriate in settings which are the opposite: Tradition focused, older (feeling it is important to portray being a grown up), judgment of others (as to whether or not they are fit for the environment), and seeking validation through formality, education, wealth, etc. People like the British at the time Yankee Doodle Dandy was written.

At the same time, the base of the wordmark is perfectly flat with no letters that protrude below the wordmark as a j, g, or y might, giving it a feel of self-assuredness and stability. Phonetically, is even shorter, with only one syllable. It is clear, easy to pronounce, and very playful, with the double uus, and the cadence repeating the D-d.

It is casual and extremely confident on the one side, and very low in assertiveness on the other, which can be extremely appealing to people who are not looking for formality or high tech, and / or do not want to be confronted with structure and a sales pitch. It is also somewhat of a polarized name, meaning that people will either not find it interesting, or find it very attractive.

At MaxBranded we do not put much weight on existing traffic, because it can often be counterproductive. A previous use of the name would likely have been with a different application, and when visitors arrive expecting a solution related to the previous application and don't find it, they quickly leave the site. This bounce metric can give search engines the impression that your content is not good and harm your rankings. Some backlinks are also not good because they can be associated with spamming tactics and having them can also hurt your search rankings. Buying a name with 10,000 backlinks can actually be a challenge and a time-consuming chore for SEO purposes. We feel that in the vast majority of instances, it is best to start your backlinking strategy for your new application for your domain name, from scratch.
But overall, having people see your new site is a good thing, and if there is a lot of traffic, and the visitors are indeed interested in your new site, it could be fantastic, but that is certainly not a reasonable expectation of a domain at any age, it is mostly unrelated to the backlink count, which is a standard metric for the value of traffic in the domain industry, and is extremely difficult to assess for several reasons like:
What needs to be assessed Value of traffic has a lot to do with the demographics and preferences of the actual visitors related to the new application of the domain, and that information we cannot possibly know, since it has to do with a possible future application of the name, and is often expensive and time consuming to obtain because it is not readily available.
Link quality The value of each link also has to do with the credibility and prominence of the site at which the link originates, and the relative exclusivity of the backlink at the page in the source. A site with 3 good backlinks could be a great purchase, but even those might be unrelated (causing SEO issues), and are unreliable at best, because they will likely be lost once the source realizes the link destination has changed.
Backlinks often do not bring traffic or add credibility Backlink count on its own can be very misleading, as many old SEO tactics involved high volumes of garbage links, and even good SEO tactics that are relevant today create backlinks whose benefit can often be lost over time. A domain with 10,000 backlinks could have well over 9,000 of them offering zero value.
But when a domain, like Duudes.com, has been registered for over a year and has not been used in a manner that would get it banned, search engines will tend to rank the domain higher because it is less likely to be a problematic site.
The Brand Bundle price for Duudes.com is $3,700, and is payable to MaxBranded via Escrow.com. It is our compensation for releasing the ownership of the domain, and delivering the available above mentioned bonuses.
Please refer to disclaimers below, terms and conditions and our privacy policy that govern the release and delivery of the bundle items.
As a rule of thumb, our price is much lower than what we feel the monthly marketing budget should be for a venture, so theoretically, the business venture using Duudes.com, will be spending no less than $3,700 every month in its advertising campaigns. With that in mind, over the first 5 years, the price of the Brand Bundle is less than 1.7% of the marketing budget, which is nothing in comparison to the benefits it is expected to bring. The reason our pricing is so far below what we feel is attainable, is because our mission is to help new business ventures succeed in today's challenging market conditions. Discounts will not be considered unless there is a reasonable and fair cause to take the time to consider a discount.
Assessing return on investment is the responsibility of the entrepreneur / investor. If you agree that the return for the price of Duudes.com will be great, then there is no valid price objection.
Making financial arrangements to cover business expenses and cashflows is another important job of every entrepreneur. If any of our Brand Bundles is truly unaffordable to any entity, then the chances that entity will be successful using the Brand Bundle are minimal, simply because the entity lacks the financial resources to launch successfully. They will struggle to afford employees, essential services, inventories, R&D, startup costs, overhead up to the breakeven point, and the myriad of unexpected expenses that are sure to arise in the course of business. From our perspective, with our high value proposition, there can be no valid affordability objection.
There is a phenomenon that challenges data. It is the opposite of Murphy's Law, and could be expressed as "If the business can be successful, it will be." And it relates to the drive of the entrepreneur. It is a severely underrated marketing influence. The passion to bring something new into the world, the strength of courage, facing competition, and uncertainty, while carrying the weight of responsiblity for employees and the effects of the business in the community. It is sheer will power, and it is fueled by belief. if you, as an entrepreneur, feel that Duudes.com is the right name for your business, and you know it down to the core of your bones, you just know…
