Numeric domains are true International names. They have meaning to
everyone in all countries. By picking a domain name with universal meaning your potential
market expands by a factor of at lest 5 times over
any other language-specific domain.
We use numbers to represent a huge variety of things:
* Area codes
* Phone numbers
* Zip codes
* Lucky numbers
* Radio and TV stations
* Prices
* Pronounceable words in some Asian languages.
* Car models
* Special meanings (666, 13, 420)
* “Words” on mobile devices (ie. “fly” is 359 on a telephone keypad).
* Addresses
* Businesses use numbers as part of their name all the time (“Level 27 clothing”, “Hinez 57 varieties”, “club 200”)
How many numerics should I own?
The more the better. Really. Beyond their baseline reseller value, numeric domains can be like little
lottery tickets. Four years ago the domain 1031.com could probably be bought for the cost of a nice dinner out. Now that billions are invested in 1031 Tax code real estate sales, the same domain is worth an easy 6 figures. This is no isolated incident. Every year hundreds of numbers acquire important meanings to somebody based on new laws, regulations, events and so on. All domains can have this same “lottery ticket” quality, but your chances of hitting the jackpot if you own 1/100th of all NNNN.com names is much greater than with 100 random domains.
Owning a large quantity of numeric domains can also give you the patience to wait for a good offer. Not every numeric domain is going to get a good offer every week, but if you have enough numeric names you’ll get at least one decent offer every few weeks.
Instead of looking at your one NNNN.com name and wondering when it will sell, you could
sell one NNNN.com a week at the price you want.
