Basically, can I know if a domain will be a premium name before dropcatching it?
A premium name is a premium name, you just need to learn what makes a name premium first.
Is it a single popular dictionary word
Is it a 3 letter .com
Is it a 3 number .com
Etc
It's called experience either get it or piss offBasically, can I know if a domain will be a premium name before dropcatching it?
I was having same issue. I solved it by visiting GD apprasal page:Basically, can I know if a domain will be a premium name before dropcatching it?

Type in the domain name and hit govalue.
With the estimated value, it will also show you whether the domain name is premium or not.
I'm not certain if this is the most sensible option, but it solved my problems for some .co domains I was interested in.
It worked/works for .co domains.I tried the same thing but it doesn't work.
It doesn't show cars.com or cars.io as premium names.
The term "premium" in regards to domains has not been universally defined. It means different things to different people.
Registration of .com, .TV, new gtld's? What registrar?How about premium price for registration? That's pretty objective.
Registration of .com, .TV, new gtld's? What registrar?
Registries and registrars all have their own definitions so confusion is often a result to the consumers.
If you are speaking of New Gtld's the term "premium" is assigned by the Registry. The registrars will have different prices due to mark up with these "premium" names. If you are looking to know in advance (New Gtld's), a little trick (tool), is Mrdomain.com. Although, I have discovered discrepancies there, so further due diligence is often required.I checked a little bit and ALL names I checked were either premium at all registrars I checked or at none. I thought that then this must be determined by ICANN, rather than specific registrars.
If you have some info on that; any at all, I would appreciate it.
By that logic, I can just check an available name in an obscure TLD and if it's premium, that's also going to be premium, right?
Also, there are different prices for premium names.
I had hemp.cat and dropped it before the big cannabis fuss, now its a premium by 101domain standards. that's how.

Premium name. What is this?
I forgot something in my post : I referred to another post of mine, but that wasn't in this thread.
That was here =>

To know the pricing (renewals and if they are registry-premiums) the following is important to notice =>
You can take any domain, put it for transfer in Dynadot, put a fake auth-code and go to checkout and there before checkout I think, you will see how much it costs for transferring the domain. If this is very high, you may be quite certain that this is a register premium, that if you transfer + extra year, has a very high pricing. NOW : OF COURSE YOU DON'T click through, because the auth-code (if the domain isn't yours), will fail. But you can simply delete this from the checkoutmenu, so you don't have to pay it. But then you at least know if it's normal transferprice or registry-premium (high) tranferprice.
AND THAT GIVE YOU AN ESTIMATE WHAT IT WOULD COST TO ONLY RENEW THE DOMAIN (as a renewal of 1 year is included in tranferring).
(This doesn't succeed with domains that are registerred at Dynadot themselves, that are expired).
That's what I thought you meant at first was if the domain was premium renewal, I have yet to see a dropcatch service that will snipe up premium renewal domains that are above regular reg. pricing. However, if you mean to know if the domain is premium quality wise I'd say google.How about premium price for registration? That's pretty objective.
Your domain is not premium by 101domain standards,it was registered by someone else and put on sale on Sedo,Afternic etc. by its new owner,you can see that by going to whois.com/whois/hemp.cat,it is registered with Netim.com on 2018-09-27I had hemp.cat and dropped it before the big cannabis fuss, now its a premium by 101domain standards. that's how.
