The name should also be able to make the jump from solely inhouse/affiliate marketing to multiple communities marketing - this means someone else beside the domain owner can get some value (social currency) from spreading the name - meaning the name has to be self-explanatory, sound natural as a noun (ex. "check out live cams dot com" vs. "check out 247 live cams dot com), and if its a real killer domain, then it also has verb use, so the name can be worked into the language/slang itself (ex. the amount of free branding Google.com is getting from all the people that "googles for things on the internet" is why you don´t see alot of google ads on TV - they don´t need to, they have becomed the verb for "searching" on the internet).

Livecams.com has alot of the above criterias - only thing missing is the built-in verb usage, but only a handfull of domains comes with existing or latent verb use (actual I can only think of a few domain names in the cam sex industry that has existing or latent verb use )
