Do you still remember the most popular CHIPs last year?

Have you gotten the newest domain trend in Chinese domain market?

According to last week’s market trading data, 5L.com names are facing promising market. Will 5L.coms be the next hot ones? Domainers hold different ideas. According to their experience, they think it mainly depends on two factors: 1. Value for End-users, 2. Bulk investment only for Big wheels’.

The high prices of LLL.com are not fully accepted by most startups and some of them turn to LLLL.com. However if 4L.com also couldn’t be so satisfactory, then 5L.com names market emerges.

For end-users, two ways could be tried.

1. The first two letters are acronym of region and the last three letters are acronym of brand or industry. If it is a company from Shanghai, it could choose sh+ acronym of its brand or industry.

2. The first several letters are acronym of brand or industry and put zx 在线(online), gs公司(company), jt集团(group) at the end of the name.

Let’s look at the second factor for investors.

Domainers are usually intermediaries and get profit margins between big wheels and end-users. However why will these big bosses open a position for 5L.com names? However even if these 5L.com names could be sold to end-users, if they couldn’t be sold at a satisfying markup, then the margin could not even be taken to renew domains.

The previous wave of Chips has not completely faded away and the bigwigs’ capital still couldn’t be withdrawn from Chips. And, of course, if new funds are poured into the market, that is another matter. In view of the existing domain name market, Chips’ prices have not exceeded CNY 15,000, and it is a mystery whether these bigwigs have the capabilities to buy a new domain type in bulk which total amount exceeds 3.2 million.

Some domainers say, “It is a match for selling and renewal. 5L.com names may be registered out in March. However the bigwigs will not help these investors sell their domains until the prices rise up to some extent. At that time, no one will be willing to purchase these domains since once you get them, they are to be renewed soon. ”

Conservative investors insist on principle “Do not follow the trend, no speculation, invest in cheap names and to earn just pennies". Bulk domain registration means higher risks. So we come up with the same conclusion that domain investing is of great risks and investors shall invest according to his abilities.

(the 5L.com domains we mentioned mainly go to five consonant letter .com domains)

I see two groups of 5L .com:

(1) Traditional type with meaning (e.g. panda.com) suitable for end users
(2) Random letters with no meaning and traded for speculation.

Limited supply of short .com will push up prices of 5L.

Cynthia-I should mention that we own 330.io so obviously we want to see all of these NNN.io bought up and they have been. Here's an example please go to NIC.io and search 034.io and 054.io - both have a "4" and a "0" and see who just bought these this morning. Now it will be interesting to see if the NNNN.io start to go also.

touch base with Mike Carson ( great guy) owner at Park.io and he'll send you the list if you'd like-he feels they will all be gone this week. Im guessing 10 or so are now left worldwide.
