LNLL may sometimes be better than LLLL

LNLL may sometimes be better than LLLL

I think in many cases an LNLL is better than a LLLL. Take H2FV for example, which stands for hydrogen fuel (or fuelcell) vehicle(s). Surely this is much more valuable than 4 random letters that mean nothing....especially if those letters are all consonants and no vowels.

Since h2 is commonly known throughout most of the world as hydrogen, and hydogen is commonly believed to be the element that will eventually solve our world energy problems, I believe h2 will one day be used extensively in domain names. Why would anyone use the long word hydrogen when they could use h2?

When H2 is combined with two letters it makes an excellent 4 digit domain name for an H2 company or H2 product. I would appreciate your thoughts and comments. Thanks

Does that mean you don't see any value in these 4 character type domains...or does it mean I shouldn't register them because you don't like them....or does it mean I shouldn't promote my own names....or does it mean something else?

Maybe you're saying I shouldn't post on subjects that I think are important if it might give the impression to others I am promoting my own agenda.....or names in this case? If thats what you are saying I would appreciate clarification of the rules concerning this.

As far as I know its OK to alert other domainers to a particular industry or area of domain names they may not be aware of. Especially if I think its a lucrative investment. I simply stated my thoughts on a particular domain subject and asked for feedback.

For your information the name H2FC.com is not owned by me. It has been registered for over seven years and is a very popular website in the H2FC investor world. I do own some of the lesser valuable extentions of H2FC and I own many of the 2028 possible H2 with two letter dotcom names. There are probably over a thousand still unregistered and if I could afford it I would register most of them. I think they are very lucrative names.

I think its unfair of you to insult me by implying that I'm hyping my user name. If I'm doing that I suppose I'm hyping it everytime I make a post in this forum.

Ed30....My old globalwarming denier and adversary waiting in the wings to take advantage of any opportunity to post criticism or abuse of me or my beliefs.

I don't think its necessary to recall old hard feelings....just because you are a globalwarming skeptical denier and I am a firm believer it doesn't mean that you and I can't be friends. Hopefully we can all one day join together in a common goal of defeating globalwarming.

BTW...I often engage in other subjects besides globalwarming, as proven by the subject of this thread which is, if you didn't notice, LNLL and LLLL domain names.:)

"H2" is shorter and less likely to be mistyped than "hydrogen", but OVT Jan '07 search volume shows "hydrogen" searches more than double "H2". A significant number of those H2 searches were likely for Hummer vehicles, not the element hydrogen. Why would anyone use the long word hydrogen when they could use h2? I don't know why, but they do.

Comparing Google search results for h2fv vs. three "bad" letter alternatives: hqfv, hxfv and hzfv:
h2fv = 422
hqfv = 998
hxfv = 1290
hzfv = 1170

OVT Jan '07 and today's Google search results do not predict the future, but they indicate that your investment choice is high risk. I doubt that PPC will cover reg fees. If you don't care about type in traffic and PPC, ignore everything I said. Good luck!

000....thanks for your post, I appreciate it. Of course you are right in showing the LLLL domains are more popular than the LNLL domains. My logic is based entirely on the H2 prospects for the future.

At this time hydrogen is not in the daily news and its not used daily for part of our energy supply as I believe it will be within a relatively short period of time. Of course when that happens we won't be able to register the H2LL names because they will all be gone and will be selling for as much or more than the LLLL names are. I have no way of proving this but I believe it to be true.

I base my opinion on what I read about the progress of the hydrogen developments. There are many companies and governments worldwide pouring huge amounts of money into these developments everyday.

I think the first use of hydrogen for public energy will be in the form of hydrogen fuelcells for small battery replacement. Later on we will see H2FCs replacing the ICE (internal combustion engine) in forklifts and other industrial equipment. They are already being used in many public transportation buses and private vehicle fleets. They work very well in places where the H2 filling stations are owned and controlled by the fleet management/owner firms.

The purpose of this thread was to get some input as to what others may think of this new technology and to bring to the attention of other domainers to what I believe to be a good investment. I own many H2 and FC names and many of them I have 8 to 9 years left on the registration. I think its a bargain to register a good alternative energy name for ten years for less that $70. I know its not for everybody but its good for me. I've always mixed a little gambling spirit in with my investments. :)

There are 676 H2LL.com combinations. Ignoring backlinks, the only one I'd risk reg fee for would be h2oo.com, which might get traffic from double "o" keystroke errors aimed at h2o.com.

Imagine that all H2LL.coms are unregistered. It would cost approximately $46,982 to register all 676 for 10 years. Will DNS as we know it still exist in the year 2017? Is there any sales data showing end users paying large amounts for LNLL.coms? Allow me to suggest that 46K (or any fraction) would be better invested today in liquid blue chip traffic name(s).

I also believe that most LLLL.coms are not worth reg fee. But that's just me.

Good luck!

You could say the same thing about 'K9' in front of LL. Another Letter Number combo that means something. For example, K9WS.com for 'Canine Walking Service'. The H2 makes sense, but who is going to want these H2LL domains in the future? Probably won't get much type in, and people probably aren't searching for H2LL terms, so the return depends on developing these names yourself, or a company wanting the domain for their website. I would put it at the higher risk side of domaining (lower risk is buying domains of known terms that people might type in, or that are already used in everyday communication), but there is some logic to this and you could end up doing well. In the end we all make our own decisions on what to reg and why we do it. good luck!

The only way an H2 domain would make sense is if hydrogen does become very popular and is widely used as an energy source in the future. I believe this will happen and thats what I'm betting on.

Thanks for all of your inputs.

i agree with your theory of incorporating some 'gamble' or high risk investments, high risk can bring high reward, .. but it is always best to be diversified to hedge your bets. don't put all your eggs in one basket in case it flops you only have broken yoke.

Hi

I see you like to "read" a lot into what was not stated.

it wasn't an insult, it was my first observation based on your first post.

Had you been talking about names like "a1cs" which has no similiarity to your user name, then I probably wouldn't have made the comment.


here is clarification on the rules:

15. Do not promote your websites, domains, company, or services in any of the discussion forums. This includes starting a thread, or replying to a post. If a member is seeking assistance or looking for a certain type of product, the best way to offer your services is to send a PM, unless the thread has been created in one of the Advertising forums (or Help Wanted), where you then may reply to a post with a self-promotion.

now, even though you said you don't own "h2fc.com" you do have "h2fv.com" listed on the site from the link in your sig. and the thread is basically about "H2" as an abbreviated version for "hydrogen".

then you go further to say "you own many H2 and FC" names, so the thread topic is not really about LNLL it's about hydrogen and fuel cell domains....imo


still sounds like "hype" to me.....but continue ;)

h2LL? sounds like a lot of hot air to me..or hydrogen for that matter...there are so many different possibilities how or what alternative fuel might replace whatever..
..in a domain sense..I think its a waste of money....much alike most hydrogen domains that are not first class top notch..to bet on a technology is fine..but it only makes sense to concentrate on the best names.. meaning names like fuelcells.com hydrogencars.com etc.. anything else like h2fuelcells.net etc just has a risk-reward ratio thats just not worth spending money on IMO
