I stay away from "w" and also "x,y,z,q"unless I have A certain word for them.Not as many words for them as other letters.

I consider "W" to be a nice letter to have when it comes to 4 letter domains, I see nothing wrong with it but general 4 letter domains arnt ez to price/appraise.

I also like "X" to me it means "Exchange" "Z" is also kinda cool like "Kidz"

It all depends on the name IMO.

It can be a negative, or a positive, all depending on the other letters in the name...

It all depends on the domain, IMHO. Does "w" go with the other letters? I think the "nice ring" factor is also counted.

Personally, I don't mind "w" in a domain name; it's quite fitting many times .
