startup-grade brand feel with compact and easy to say
Moderate scoring — fine as a portfolio filler if the aftermarket covers cost, not a chase on its own.
Synthesized from the DQS, aftermarket estimate, registration cost, lifecycle stage, and trademark check on this page. Not financial advice — your portfolio strategy overrides.

DQS 57 · .host · 5ch · brandable
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 "years" is a recognizable word, years.host benefits from both type-in traffic and search-intent alignment. Short names like this (5 chars) tend to be the sweet spot for SaaS brandability — memorable without hitting the premium-tax of 3-4 letter names. The phonetics are vowel-heavy and smooth to say aloud. .host is a niche TLD with a narrower buyer pool; the aftermarket here depends heavily on whether the SLD itself carries standalone demand. With zero Wayback coverage, the domain's prior history is effectively a clean slate from a content perspective. DQS 57/100 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. Redemption-period status means the owner has about 25 days left to reclaim the name. Any outside party can only wait and watch. The keyword component is the honest hook here.

No meaningful Wayback record. Backlink research rarely pays off here.
Deep-link into backlink checkers
Real backlink counts come from dedicated crawlers (Ahrefs, Moz, Majestic). Each button opens years.host pre-loaded in that tool — zero keystrokes to cross-check.

Social handle availability
A 404 on the profile page means the handle is free to claim. Grabbing matching handles at registration time is cheap insurance against impersonation + easier brand rollout later.
