AAA domains

[serryjw]

I just saw a commercial on TV with a domain/URL that started with AAA. Is there any value in this? Does Google treat these domains differently?

Throwback to when the yellow pages book was king. Companies would strategically choose names that start with AAA

Alphabetical order puts AAA in the first position for the category of yellow pages.

YPO - Yellow Pages Optimization has no affect on SEO

Right, that was working only in the newspapers.

I would actually be worried about it antiquating your prospective business model. You know what I mean? It makes it sound like a local business that didn't put much effort in coming up with a business name except for the Yellow Pages.
