Premium NNNNN.com’s - 1471 domains left

Posted in Buyouts, Lists, NNNNN.com on February 9th, 2008 by Michael – 4 Comments

In total there are about 17.5K NNNNN.com domains left out of 100K. Couple thousands of them were registered in last several days by a few investors.

Numeric domains represent one of the safest and most profitable investments in the market currently due to their limited quantity, compared to letter domains and many possible meanings in different cultures and countries: phone numbers, zip codes, lucky numbers, dialing codes, license plates etc.

Not all digits are equal, some digits are considered better than other, according to 3character.com price guide:

1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9 are considered premium numbers. Other lesser high quality numbers include: 4 and 6. Lower quality numbers include the number 0. 3

Recent scan of all premium NNNNN.com’s, consisting only digits: 1,2,3,5,7,9 shows
that 1471 domains are available out of 7,776.

The whole list is here

Few random names from the list:

Premium LLLL.net Buyout

Posted in Buyouts, LLLL.com, LLLL.net on February 8th, 2008 by Michael – 1 Comment

Last Premium LLLL.net’s were bought out on Feb,5 2007 - 3 days ago. Now you can already see threads on namepros selling these for $20-25 each and some are getting purchased. It’s pretty obvious that these will grow in price and based on past LLL.net growth and LLLL.com quick rise to power, I predict the premium LLLL.net’s to have a minimum price of $50-100 by the end of the year - not a bad return for those who bought them for $5 each. I bought 400 premium LLLL.net’s myself, could have bought many more, but I figured I’d better keep these and renew them next year if needed as I’m mostly concentrating on LLLL.com’s now.

That comes to show the enormous leverage of a buyout. LLLL.com domains that were available 4 months ago are now selling for $60-70 and will continue to grow at high rates while new players enter the market and boost the prices by buying the 4 letter names in large quantities. At some point, several months from now, the prices will stabilize and continue growing at more regular rates close, but still higher than the LLL.com’s do now. Although the biggest winners will be the ones who originally registered the domains and had enough patience for the prices to grow to turn their $7 registration fee domains into $100+ domains.

All the decent cvcv.net/vcvc.net seem to be taken as well and have certain reseller value. People are also buying all good LLLL.net’s now inspired by the LLLL.com’s, but I think many of them will be disappointed because there are about 220K LLLL.net’s remaining. And unless a name belongs to a special category which was already bought out, like premium LLLL.net’s, or cvcv.net etc, it won’t have reseller value.A domain that looks “cool” to one person can be total garbage for rest, that’s why the safe way is always to buy domains that are supposed to run out soon. It’ll take years till we see the last of LLLL.net’s purchased, my prediction is 5 years or more - so don’t get too excited about these. There are more profitable opportunities around the corner ;)
