NEW POLL. Regarding 3 Character Domains.

[NamePopper.com]

Here is the set up...

You are going to buy a 3 character .COM domain. Since a pure 3 letter domain is too expensive-- you settle on a domain that contains two of the same letter--and one number.

For example L#L -- LL# -- #LL.

In your opinion--what number is more desirable?

Everything from 0-9 is there. I've also included a "Makes no difference" choice.

Thanks for your participation.

 

[888]

Obviously 2 as in B2B.com or C2C.com

>>What "#" is more desirable in a 3 character domain?
3 Charecter Dot Coms you mean

The hyphen is the least of the charecters. 0 - can be the letter o, 1 can be L or I - and don't me started on number 8 ie gr8 etc!

4 and 2 sound like English (for and to )- and others sound like words in other languages. The number 9 in some cases sounds nice like K9 and B9 etc. Zero is a word by itself - and comes good for search engines.

It makes a diference per domain - but most of them are just cute substitutions

So - in short, it makes a difference - but diferent with each domain.

888--I am shocked. I was sure you would pick 8.

DotComster--Damn you. It's too early in the day to think that hard. :razz:

(I did change the poll to ".com" though.)

 

[alldig]

Yes, I like 8 too, great for online casino like 888.com. 7 is also good as in slot machines.

But I won't put my bet on 8 for general domain names .

Hey Digger--I like 2oo.com--how much are you asking?

(remember--I'm just a poor moderator that doesn't even get a salary )

Yummm... does that include baked potato and salad too?

I'm waiting to see if a guy comes thru with the money for a package I listed earlier. I took it down because he promised he would have the money by the end of the day--so I'm considering it sold.

Does that offer stay good untill midnight Digger?

 

[alldig]

The offers stays until someone buys it. It could be the weekly special! First come first serve.

Mixed are all bad anymore.. But if I had to choose one, I would look for 1, 2, or 4.

4my.net

Zero is the absolulte WORST.

Was bored

 

[RON2]

2,3, and 4 are the best numbers because it's easier to make meanings up out of them.

It's broke for me - page full of mysql errors - might want to check it

The only 3-character name I need is "dan.info"... no number, no dot-com, but it serves its purpose well.

 

[adoptabledomains]

letter number combinations MUST have a meaning of some sort to have any real value. I had some at one time, but ended up letting most expire with lack of purchase interest. The few I sold had at least some meaning similar to FL2.com or NJ6.net that can stand for Florida too or New Jersey six. I see only minor value from someone wanting a short email address and little real commercial value except for a few exceptions.

The only ones I still own is B8E.com and B8E.net which loosely represent my last name of Beatty (pronounced bait-E).

Three letter domains are a totally different story, since most can be turned into an acronym of some sort.
