Would You Buy These 3 Letter Domains?

[Toker]

TLDs are all running out of 3 letter domains..
I can pick these up for a great price if I want, Any opinions
on what they'd be worth??
Numbers are Google search fir the domains.
HIN.NAME -- 127,000,000
HUP.NAME -- 4,800,000
KAB.NAME -- 7,910,000
VOE.NAME -- 5,020,000
SSU.CC -- 5,490,000
YES.GS -- 919,000,000

sorry to be O.T. but what ins the meaning of the .cc and .gs extensions?

[DirtyJumbo]

Wow, those domains get that many searches??

and CC is coconut islands or something I guess

[Head Boy]

I suspect that something like "hup.name" doesn't get any searches or type-ins, so I guess I wouldn't buy them.

YES.GS = yes, great sex..................lol

Well the name HUP gets that many hits in the SE's..
Nobody searches for a domain url (Hup.name) and if they knew it
they wouldn't be in Search!
I doubt many people actually search for HUP.COM either..

That's a Great thought..
I know it was listed in Sedo for $8,000 for a few weeks..
I picked it up through someone for $49.00 and I'd pay that
for any 3 letter domain especially if it spells a word..
And YES got 921,000,000 (921 Million) listings in Google.
In Yahool it had 666,000,000 for YES

You bad boy Toker

You know that a massive number of surfers don't know how to type URLs into their address bars, so they type them into the search box on their favourite SE, or home page supplier.

That would take them right to the site tho not to the search listings.

Put it this way I paid 99 cents each for HIN.name and HUP.name.
I paid $20.00 for SSU.cc, $2.25 for KAB.name, $2.25 for VOE.name.

Now this goes to show that when I said about Appraisals...
YOU.GS was Appraised for $50,727 at Sedo
and was for sale there for $8,000 for a few weeks...
I bought it for $49.00 today!

You're joking, right??? Looking at how non webmasters surf and looking at my own stats, all show that surfers will type in a domain (yes, name and extension!) and then click to come to the site.
I think in part, we can thank AOL for this with their promo to just type in the keyword in the search box lol

We're talking 2 different things here. If a person knows the site
they're going to they do type the domain in, so do I.
And if it's a site I go to frequently I bookmark it and go to it that way.
I'm talking about keywords and people who put them in search
to find a site.
Keywords play alot in a domains value and the amt of links for a keyword
also add to a domains value..
AOL lost alot of bucks the last few years----------------
