LLLL.net COUNTDOWN

[-REECE-]

New Member Disclaimer: Four letter domain names are a relatively new investment category that is only beginning to gain traction in Dotcom. This domaining sector offers potentially larger returns than traditional revenue or traffic based domain names, however with this investment opportunity comes extravagant risk.

So, do you guys have favourite letters?
I tend to skip over J's and K's, but i love S's, Z's, C's, P's and T's.

:D

 

[dmi]

I've got a nice pronouncable one - EBSH,NET
Any thoughts?

:D

Among the premiums, I like F, T, C, L, A.
Among the non-premiums I just love "U". It should've been declared a premium.

:D

The only time I like J's and K's is when they are starting a CVCV:
Kocu
Jobu

I tend to stay away from Q's and Y's. I love all vowels N's, S's, T's, R's, G's and B's

I love whatever I can sell.

;D

I've decided to hold onto a couple of mine, the chances are the LLLL market will survive another 6 months, so i think i'm going to sell them then.

[Ja$on]

I do both bro but I hate having all my eggs in 1 basket.

I like to do a split, keep some, sell some and then reinvest in other markets.

 

[krx]

Just bought OOLI.net here at Namepros.com!

Frank :bingo:

How much, if you don't mind sharing...

Haha, I feel you on that one buddy. Eventhough I havent sold any LLLL.net I know I can make a profit on every single one of them...food for thought i guess.

It's a decent quad premium ... but I would hesitate to call it pronounceable. To me, a name is pronounceable if it follows the phonetic pattern of a real word. For example, 'ench' and 'aujo' are pronounceable because they follow the form of 'inch' and 'auto'. But 'sh' either starts a word (shoe) or needs a vowel in front of it (push). I don't think there are any words that follow 'b' with 'sh' ... at least not in the English language.

A good one, nonetheless :imho:

It is nice lesson for me. (Rep added)
Ken, what do you say about my etsh.net - is it good pronounceable or no?

 

[Ja$on]

LLXL.NET - $15 snapnames.

 

[Ross860]

LLXL.NET - $15 snapnames.

only 15$!?!!?!? :tri: :bingo:

It is a bit easier to say than 'ebsh' but still phonetically awkward. I would not call it pronounceable, again, because the 'sh' sound does not naturally follow the letter 't' ... at least not in any cases I can think of.

I've been thinking for awhile that I would create a "scale of pronounceabitlity" ... just for my own valuation purposes. Just cause it seems like the description "pronounceable" is used way too liberally for 4L names. I think there would be use for 3 levels of pronounceable:

1 is like I described above (mimics a real word). These are "truly" pronounceable.

2 makes use of Qs and Ys to make names like 'dyqo' and 'hynt' (I think I might own both of those...), which don't follow the pattern of any "real" words (I don't think) but are pretty easy to pronounce nonetheless. Names like 'cuep' and 'mahp' probably belong here.

3 are names everybody except the name's owner knows are not pronounceable!

There may also be a need for a different category for names like 'wnnr' and 'pzza' - names that immediately make you think of a real word (winner and pizza, of course) but aren't "truly" pronounceable, at least not in the sense described above.

Anyway ... a few thoughts on the subject of pronounceability :imho:

spuj.net

any opinions. Its not triple premium, but i think its a pretty good one

 

[Ja$on]

I think I just robbed Snapnames at this price.

 

[squid]

LLXL.NET - $15 snapnames.

holy moly.
Nice one.

 

[Travis]

I think I just robbed Snapnames at this price.

Lets put it this way. I paid $25 a piece here for FFZF.net and FFVF.net, so you did pretty well.

 

[bobby9101]

and I paid $60 for hnhh.net (though quad premium) also paid $25 for JJEJ.net

 

[Ja$on]

I have sold about 4 of these from $25-$35 so I had a pretty good idea of value, lol.

You think its better if the odd letter is at position 2 or 3?
