What's so special about three character domains? Why are they worth so much?

If anybody cared, here's a few free (available) ones...

I have the same question... Didn't get answered on the other post... But I am very curious.

I don't know as well, I want to know about that. By the way at some websites I found that

Code:

We will only sell 3 character domain                    names on this site.  We are going to fill a niche that                    others have tried to do, but we feel are not doing well enough. Whether                    you come to our site to buy or sell we want your experience                    to be a good one in either obtaining a 3 character domain name                    you want or selling one that you no longer require. We have                    decided that the days of paying a 10% commission fee for the                    sale of a premium domain name are over.  We are making                    our service available for a commission of only 3%

[SIZE=2]Where Are the 3 Character Bargains Today?
[SIZE=1]Written by Andrew Miller of ZestyDomains.com[/SIZE][/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]One of the more common questions that I receive in the email comes from folks wanting to know where the best buys are in 3-character domains. This is a great question, and is a central discernment for 3 character investors. Everybody wants to buy at the best times and know when to sell for best returns. In a way, it's a question of timing the market.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]So where are today's bargains? In a sense, a smart strategy for anytime in 3 character domaining is to buy in a strong sector when it's receiving a lesser amount of focus. For example, right now very little is being heard about these three segments:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]1. Three letter .info (and .biz) domains
2. Three number .us domains
3. 3 character .net domains[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]I would argue that 2 out of three are strong buys right now at current pricing levels, and all seem to have fallen out of the mainstream as the "exciting 3-character domains of the day." [/SIZE][SIZE=2]3-Letter .info domains were all the rage about 6 months ago and prices were growing quickly. There were many sales on the forums and on Ebay and people were posting wanted postings anywhere and everywhere. To a slightly lesser extent, the same was true with 3-Letter .biz domains[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Nowadays you hear little roar about 3-Letter .info's and .biz's, and they've trailed in the shadows of strong 3-letter .com, net, org and .us sales. .Info is a strong extension. .Biz is a very good extension. Many a wise investor have purchased investments when the market ignored them, and often to their reward. 3-letter .info domains can still be found for under $100 today, which represents an incredible buying opportunity to the thinking and opinion of this author. The days of $xx or even low $xxx for 3-letter .info domains are likely to pass us by soon, and silent buyers who recognize this have been purchasing almost every 3-letter .info they can buy. 3-letter .info's and .biz's do seem like possible easy choices for investment right now and are unlikely to have much, if any, downside risk (I say this while also pointing you to review carefully the disclaimer below) [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Three number .us domains too represent possible strong buys at this time. Because the registry withheld many of the NNN.us domains, fewer than 1000 exist, and all have been registered for some time. These, rare as they are, can often be found for under $100 today. Further, as usage of NNN domains continues to grow (with an expanding marketplace that prefers numbered domains for their marketing and outreach), one might suspect that NNN.us domains will follow suit. Even spilling over into the other extensions of .net, .org, .info and .biz, there might be strong buying opportunities for NNN domains, as their gap between their valuation and NNN.com's is decreasing, as NNN.com's continue to be strong. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Finally, some might argue that 3-character .net domains represent a buying opportunity at this time. Not all 3-character.net's are registered at this time, but it's likely possible that that will happen soon. These would be very speculative buys at this time in the opinion of this author. These could be great buys, IF the buyout happens soon. If the buyout doesn't happen soon, the wait to see strong returns could be a while yet to come. For this reason, this category is listed in this analysis, but not thought to be worthy of the other two areas listed above for possible strong investment purposes. If anything, these would be the very risky buys of today's market, though at a very low cost to do so. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]It would be wise to note in closing that very few patient people have ever lost money while investing in 3-Letter or 3-Number domains. This has not always been true of 3-Character domains, but the future looks better than ever for all types of 3-character domains for investors who share reasonable patience and a reasonable level of risk.

[SIZE=2]I don't think these are the infos we wanted. So someone please help us.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]I have these for free :[/SIZE]

Well, it is because they are rare that they are expensive. Those "free" ones you listed artoonie, are already registered...

Because they are short, they are easy to remember and can be abbreviations for pretty much anything.

mahmud16, next time use quote boxes, not code boxes and source your information.

I'm trying to register two domains, a lln.org and a lnl.info.
How much can it cost?

**Re: 3-char domains -** 11-21-2006, 07:28 AM

the costs depends to the domains registrar, you can choose it. it cost the same at a normal .info or .org domain...
