Would rebranding YouTube in the near-future make sense as well?

Would rebranding YouTube in the near-future make sense as well?
- oldstrangers 15y agoNo, because YouTube is a brand name that competes successfully on its own. There's nothing they could name it that would have better name recognition than YouTube already does.
- abraham 15y agoWouldn't the same hold true for Blogger then? "one of the top 10 most visited websites in the world"
- oldstrangers 15y agoNo. Blogger has a generic stigma. You say the word blogger all the time, but rarely do you actually think of blogger.com. Actually, I never think of blogger.com. And we're talking about brand power/brand recognition, not how popular the sites are.
- abraham 15y agoYouTube certainly has a stronger brand but when blogger is referenced I only see it either referring to a person who blogs or Blogger and the two are pretty easy to differentiate. E.g. "a blogger", "the blogger" refer to a person blogging vs "on blogger", "with blogger" that refer to blogger.com.
- oldstrangers 15y agoConsidering that your comment lacks comprehension, I think my point towards 'Blogger' being too generic a term is even more valid. "Bob is a blogger on 'blogger' who blogs about blogging." "Bob is a blogger on 'Google Blogs' who blogs about blogging."
