Which is more valuable?


I have a question regarding LLLL.com values. Which is more valuable? An unpronounceable LLLL.com with 3 premium letters and one of either k or j, a similar LLLL.com with a repeating premium letter (for ex: ddhj) or a pronounceable LLLL.com with one bad letter like dhoq.com ? Premium letters of course being the ones referred to as such by 3character.com .

Man thats hard to say w/o knowing what the pronouncable bad letter DN would be.



I'd say it's a toss up between the Npro3P1NP.com and the Pro1NP.com.

If the Pro1NP.com has a really nice sound I would probably go with that.


Pro=Prounouncable
NPro=Non Prounouncable
P=Premium Letter
NP=Non Premium Letter


hehe

Well if it were my money that I was spending and had to choose I would choose Qloy.com over dbhj.com anyday!

IMO::
Lovo.com > ACST.com > Qloy.com > Qlek.com > DBHJ.com > XHBQ.com

ACST.com > Lovo.com > DBHJ.com > Qlek.com > Qloy.com > XHBQ.com

The chances of finding a business with the letters ACST is very very good - those are the 4 most commonly used letters. LOVO is a true pronouncable, but it must compete with all the other pronouncables, and to some extent the 5 and 6 letter pronouncables. It is very close to "love" so many businesses whose product is not related to love will avoid it and those who are related may be concerned with losing traffic to Love.com.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=328107

I have many domains like DBHJ.com, 3 nice letters and one not-so-nice. The J is the weak point. Still a good chance of an end-user: Journal (great at the end) Jones and Johnson. Without doing the math DBHJ would rank, I would guess, in the upper half of LLLL's for better letters.

Here is where I diverge from the crowd. The largest percentage of the remaining unregistered domains have "Q"'s. That means that "Q" is the least popular, most difficult to find an end user for, of all the letters. Would someone want to name their new business, their big dream, QLOY or QLEK ??? I don't see it. They would choose an anagram that has meaning to their business, they would choose a true pronouncable with 5 or 6 letters that they could afford, or even a descriptive two or three word domain.

A lot of people disagree with me here, and at this time QLOY.com might sell for more than DBHJ.com. Time will tell.
