Postmaster 04-24-2004, 03:47 PM Mate theres even a www.com try and see markjut 04-24-2004, 04:03 PM I thought it had to be at least 3 MatthewN 04-24-2004, 04:08 PM Originally posted by Postmaster Mate theres even a www.com try and see There's also a www.www.com :D jroy 04-24-2004, 05:10 PM http://i.net its got to be worth $500,000 tazd9t9 04-24-2004, 05:14 PM well you can get 2 letter or at least you used to be able to www.bt.com www.aa.com etc maybe it was pre the new rules? Im not too sure on the TLD rules tbh you cant have 2 letter uk names but you could pre- nominet and anyone who had them then still has them ie bt.co.uk Postmaster 04-24-2004, 05:21 PM Yes this is true.... non, 1 and 2 character domains were allowed to be registered before but not anymore.... Maybe there exceptions for buissness also the .coms, nets and .orgs are all taken anyway.. jroy 04-24-2004, 05:25 PM i dont think there are no other 1 character domains though PCplayground 04-24-2004, 06:23 PM Originally posted by jroy i dont think there are no other 1 character domains though Paypal still owns "x.com" www.x.com x.org is also registered. jroy 04-24-2004, 06:41 PM i stand corrected Bashar 04-24-2004, 07:02 PM infact there are 6 only Qwest www.q.com PayPal www.x.com used to offer $20/year mailboxes before paypal bought it Nissan www.z.com (i had big@z.com when it was free portal :P before nissan bought it) Future Media Architects www.i.net Kuwaiti ;) unknown site/owner www.q.net the X Foundation www.x.org rumor said domains droped by mistake and those owners registered them and they are not allowed to sell the domain. so new owners bought the old companies owning the domain to own them. but sure how accurate this story is but thats what i heared :) jroy 04-24-2004, 07:06 PM dam theyre lucky, am i right saying they are worth $500,000? Bashar 04-24-2004, 07:13 PM easily, its fancy domains :) i wont mind having k.net just to showoff :P jroy 04-24-2004, 07:24 PM yeah, me too, but id be more interested in i.com or e.com PCplayground 04-24-2004, 07:24 PM Originally posted by jroy dam theyre lucky, am i right saying they are worth $500,000? No, I think that price is an underestimate of their value. jroy 04-24-2004, 07:25 PM bashar agrees with me Bashar 04-24-2004, 08:50 PM would you pay $500K for internet.com or i.com ? it really depends :D men.com sold for 3 times more, act.com sold for $500K it really depends on the name.

I am just going off my the law of supply and demand. The lower the supply the higher the demand. There are only a FEW 1 letter domains out of the millions of domains in existence. snoop 04-24-2004, 11:32 PM Originally posted by jroy dam theyre lucky, am i right saying they are worth $500,000? I think they would struggle to get that sort of price, especially the non .com ones. Look at the current usage of those domains, just redirects or relatively small sites. jroy 04-25-2004, 12:03 AM google is not a small site!! but yeah i see what you mean, they could be worth more than $500,000 snoop 04-25-2004, 03:43 AM Originally posted by jroy google is not a small site!! since when did google decide to move to a one character domain? I type in "google.com". jroy 04-25-2004, 10:16 AM Originally posted by snoop Look at the current usage of those domains, just redirects or relatively small sites. oh, my bad, i thought you had said just redirects to relatively small sites |
