Any idea about 2 letter domain


any idea if we can get a 2 letter domain, i am planing to purchase a 2 letter domain.

Its a good idea to purchase a 2 letter domain but u have u pay huge money for that.

Of course u need to get it because they won’t be available to register.

Those domains are really expencive. hundreds of thousands dollars for 2 letter domain

There are no one,two or three character domains available anymore.

I saw some 2 letter domains for sale at 80k or 100k. That is their current price. And these one are not premium letters.

There is a very little amount of 4 character domains are available now, and you’re lucky if you get one of those that makes sense.

yes it costs a lot of money and you would be even lucky if you found one 2-LETTER .com for sale.

Now people are rushing for 3 letters and you are reducing it to 2??

You can visit sedo and other domain selling sites to check if someone is selling such domain names.

How many type ins a domain gets


How can you tell how many type ins a domain gets if its not registered? Is there a tool for this?

there is unfortunately no way to tell anything about the traffic of a domain without owning it (whether or not it is registered is irrelevant as well). What you could do, if you are asking because you want to purchase based off traffic, is the following:

1) Register the domain with a registrar that provides you with a grace period (they all have the capability of doing this, but most fail to because they are money hungry scavengers).
2) Set the name servers appropriately.
3) Create or use an existing script to count the number of unique visits to the domain that do not have a http referrer.
4) Drop the domain within the 5 day grace period (if the traffic is not what you hoped for).

You can get a very rough idea by typing in the domain.com into the Overture keyword tool. It will always show less than the domain gets, but if it gets 0 then you know its of little value. I reg’ed a typo once that showed 74 on OVT and in fact it got about 150-200 a day.

End buyers for your names


how do you find end buyers for your names??

Let’s say you have a domain, consisted out of 2 keywords: Keyword1Keyword2.com .

forward your domains for sale to a retail sales site so if someone is interested, they land on a sales page. In most cases, you can make more per month selling domains than you can from parking anyway so that’s what I recommend.

when you have good names, they will contact you.

How to find end users for NOT premium domains:-

1. Go to google and search for “Keyword1 keyword2”.
2. Find the websites that use the this exact combination of words
3. Make a list of these websites, preferably over 100
4. Now you need to contact them. You should always contact the person who appears in the website’s whois info, because that is usually the decision maker of that company. When you go through the contact forms of the website your message might not reach the decision maker in time or at all.
5. Write them all an email, as personalized as possible for each website. Briefly explain who you are and why you think that they would benefit from owning that domain name. DO NOT inflate your prices and offer them to pay for the FULL escrow fee. At the end, always include your full name and contact info, including telephone number.
* If the name is really good, you are better off sending them a formal letter(snail mail), or calling them, instead of using email.
6. You can also invite them to an auction instead of directly offering them the name. You may have a SEDO auction running, on eBay or anywhere else and just provide them with the URL.

.vc domain worth


I have heared about .vc domain. what worth it has?

.vc stands for virtual community and etc. I doubt .vc domains does not receive more traffics.

Quite honestly it’s an exotic ccTLD among 200+ others.
Even .cc would be better (more established).
For development any ext could do the job.
For investment purpose => stay away from exotic extensions.

Difference between Domain and Sub-domain


I still don’t understand the difference between a domain and a sub-domain.

A subdomain is like forums.cpwebhosting.net where the forums part is the subdomain.

A domain is cpwebhosting.net where it has nothing before it.

Domains = contain the DNS, subdomains can’t use their own DNS unless you have a script for it.
Subdomains are usually where you put added on features to a normal domain, like a forum or gallery.

subdomain is a name you can use before your domain, generally where you see www on most sites.

To create subdomains you need a domain to begin. Also how to make them would depend on the control panel your webhosting provider provides along with the option given by your web hosting provider to create them, check with your webhoster to check if they offer it as an option and which control panel they use to receive a proper response

if you have a forum at www,yoursite.com/forum, you can create a subdomain called forum and link to it. then it would be forum.yoursite.com.

.in domains worth


i was thinkin of getting some .in domains..

what do you think? are they worth it or not?

.in domains will be a good investment though .com is way ahead.

It be great if you are either from India or targeting the india market.
They rock and rank same as a .com domain name.
even international wise..

3 char’s are getting lesser in all tld’s so i bought some in .in’s awesome..

they cost around 14$ each..thats almost double of a normal .com

.tv domain


What do you think about .tv domain ?

The .tv extension has been revived by Demand Media and is now widely associated with media/video and television by many, both within the domaining industry and enduser’s.

.tv domains are very expensive.

Seemed a good idea at the time, but probably not worth much really.

I think the .tv extension has huge potential to be the #2 player behind .com However I am somewhat worried about how Demand Media is handling the extension. Many people I have spoken with have expressed concerns or questions about their premium pricing.

Both .com and .net extensions for business website


when you are starting a certain business, do you always thing of registering both .com and .net extensions of the domain you want to use for that business?

It is always a good idea to register as many domains and extensions that you might need in the future. They are cheap and once you own it, no one else can take it.

Yep. Always good to reserve everything for your name.

I don’t think it is always necessary to register both the extensions. It is totally dependent on the company to company.

I like only .com extension

I personally do and personally will when I acquire a few more domains for future businesses. If it’s a domain which is already registered as is a premium domain, chances are they both will be up for sale.

I have always bought both com and net domains.

Its not always necessary I usually just use .com unless its a big buisness in which case both .net .com .org and .biz, just to be safe.

well, nowadays .net is becoming more popular and i sometimes see people choosing the .net than a .com

I think people just get used to .com but I like both .net and .biz.
