domain 8ANK.COM, please appraise

[stanley850]

Hey, i bought this domain thinking that the obvious BANK.COM was already taken and there may be some need for a different slightly trendy, modern way of spelling it. Please appraise.

The financial industry is too professional to get cute replacing letters with numbers.

This domain has negative value. Any work you put into developing it is for nothing since web surfers are unlikely to trust a financial site called 8ank. Would you?

I was going to make a joke about 8oobs.com, but it's actually registered. lol.

seriously though, it's not really as clever as you think. i registered plenty of crap domains when i started too. you just have to come to terms with the fact that nobody thinks it's good except you, and let it go.

good luck

Although the I am sure the original poster is no longer reading this thread due to the trouncing.

Here are some interesting facts (they surprised me)

There are 322 four letter words beginning with B

Looks like 136 other people had the same idea as stanley850.

136 of those words with the B replaced by an 8 are taken which leaves
186 Still available.

[Nattydomain]

now the BIG question...how many are those held by domainers AND which ones are working fully built websites?
