    First, it isn't three letters

    and that makes a big difference. It is three character.

    Unless you can make some meaning out of those characters, there is nothing special about this domain name.

    What OhSoKorny is saying is this is not a chat room, try to compose a complete sentance using completely spelled words.

    No, I do not think that y11 is more meaningful than a normal 3 character domain like fsx. If your company's name is "FreeSexXrays" then fsx has just as much meaning as Y11 would if your company name was "YellowEleven"
    More sense can usually be made of three letters than three characters, but that's up to you to provide a real meaning for Y11. - Not us.

    come one, just need some comments, if you think this will crack your head, then forget about it. I'm out of idea that why seeking help here, i thought this is one of the benefit in involving a forum??

    You could do what the owner of the .com has done with it.

    I think that i remember a similar name sale for about $100.

    3letter domains, or should we say 3 character domains are only worth something if they all are letters.

    Congratulations to you if you can make some money from selling it, i mean it. But i doubt it...

    FYI

    FYI: hkg.net was sold for US$5,000. But that was about a year ago. Hope this helps.

    I also owned a 3 char domain ... ds1.org

    DS1 - Digital Satellite (Good for those interested in running DSS sitez )

    DS1 - Equivalent of T1 (Good for Tier I providers).

    DS1 - Satellite launched to orbit years ago.

    How much would you pay for ds1.org ?
    Who do you think will be interested ? (Governments, Military, ISP, DSS Webmasters?)

    You must be kidding! I have been selling dnx.org at US$600 and can't get rid of it!

    3 char domains can be picked up from deleted domain databases all the time... they arent worth much unless you can find maybe a company who uses the same letters/numbers in their name

    That's what I meant with the "right-buyer".

    1. Not true (unless it's the junk combos: y0q.com for example)
    2. Not true: over 150 domains sold this year on ebay and directly.

    Some letters are truly less desired than others. It's a matter of what you plan to do with the domain or how you plan to resell it.

    In this case we have y11.net - not .com
    But this does not mean it's a worthless domain!
    The simplest form of usage for this would be for a nameserver that you'd give to your customers, instead of "bubbashostingdns.com"

    That's a good name, and you can get $50 or more for it. Why no upper limit? Because the end buyer has to price the domain differently than its potential market value.

    For the particular one, it has 2 consecutive numbers and a strong letter (a weak letter would have been q, y etc.)

    Also the digit 4 can substitute the word "for" in many cases.

    So "Five for Victory" would be a neat explanation of what your domain means
