Ahh, trying to optimize for the search engines.

The world's longest single word domain name is an actual name of a town in Wales.

" www.Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.com is the longest single word (without hyphens) .com domain name in the world.

... translates as "The church of St. Mary in the hollow of white hazel trees near the rapid whirlpool by St. Tysilio's of the red cave". "

You should read up on some of the other towns that could have held the record had they been able to register. One, in Thailand, has 163 characters.

:)

Wow. That would be intense to remember and spell right.

single word ? lol

i've seen multiple words of the max lenth but not single word! :D

my God.. LOL definetly this is increasing my database :eek:

Ahh, thats nothing

www.123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123.com

A whopping 63 char.

It used to say "My domain is longer then YOUR domain!"

I hate to fit this on a business card

I am glad no one here has hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia or sesquipedalophobia ;-)

wow

i've never see one like this! :D

http://www.johnkerryisadouchebagbutimvotingforhimanyway.com/ is pretty long if you ask me, and easier to remember! :)

I think the maximun characters you can register is 63.

This is has no active website
Domain Name:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx***********
Record last updated at 2004-04-14 08:57:51
Record created on 1999/12/12
Record expired on 2013/12/12

here's a working one with 61 X parked somewhere
http://www.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx***********/

This is correct 63 characters is the max

here's one that's actually being used well...

http://www.111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111.com/

i was going to get

abcdefghijklmnopqrtuvwxyz-0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ.com

Which would be exactly 63 chars, and uses every possibly character allowed in a domain name ;)

Ok, what would you do with the name?

waste few bucks to say he owns the longest domain or something :rofl:

I was going to ask about the longest possible domain, since I knew you guys would have the answer and I found it doing a simple search:

example
these domains are longer by a few letters, there is actually content on each of them:

www.thepersonwithanewideaisacrank-untiltheideasucceeds-by-marktwain.com

;)

www.thelongestdomainnameintheworldandthensomeandthensomemoreandmore.com

I think these 2 domains are the same length in characters as www.11111.... mentioned above.

Is it possible to have a URL with 253 characters? I found this link addressing RFC:

www.schwer.us/journal/2003/10/25/worlds-longest-domain-name/

Longest single word domain name that is not a place name may be:
PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOCONIOSIS.INFO

It's listed in whois, but it looks like there is currently no website.

I'm guessing that this "town" you speak of is commonly known as Bangkok. The full name of Bangkok, a.k.a. City of Angels, will run three and a half lines on a typical A4. :cool:
