Rare NLL 3-character domain name www.0dd.com is on auction now at Sedo, from our portfolio at pfDomains.com. The starting bid is US$360 and the auction ends on October 1st at 5.20pm ET (10.20pm UK).

With its obvious similarity to the dictionary word ‘odd’, this is a great opportunity to own a superb short, memorable dot com. Even despite the recession, three-character dot coms have held their value well.

With the advent of Twitter and other social media, URL shortening services have been much in demand. There are plenty of free scripts out there for setting up such a service, but first you need a good, short, memorable URL to start with.

I’m offering, for a limited time, all of my three-character .net and .org domains for a $60 auction start (7 days duration) at Sedo. The average price for a 3-character .net varies greatly, depending upon the letter/number composition and order. For example, 1rd.net sold for $60, whereas k47.net went for $4,200 – both within the last few months. The fact they are 3-characters make these domains quite valuable from the outset. And remember, there are less combinations of domains available that have two numbers and a letter (10 x 10 x 26 = 2,600) than there are with two letters and a number (26 x 26 x 10 = 6,760).

These sort of domains are perfect for URL shortening services, or easy-for-others-to-remember personal web sites, or whatever you want to do with them.

Please view my 3-character domain page for the full list. All domains there are hyperlinked straight to Sedo for a quick auction start when you offer $60.

My 3-character .coms are also for sale on that page. I’m looking for $400+ for those. Offers welcome.

It’s not the first domain appraisal scam, and it certainly won’t be the last, but I felt it was important to make a point of mentioning the latest one, pddomains.com, due to its similarity to my web site. Basically, they send an email stating they want to buy one of your domains and that they will offer you a percentage of the appraised value, provided you use their appraisal service, from which they make money. They actually have no interest in purchasing your domain.

Typographically, this domain is only millimetres away (on the keyboard) from my portfolio web site at pfDomains.com. I’d like to make it clear that I am not affiliated with these people!

This is the second scam in two day, the previous one being for macez.com. Former scams have included domains pozde.com, nameorange.com, tropicalnames.com, and flyappraisals.com, and there will be many more. It costs nothing to send an email, and just one unsuspecting domain owner who uses their appraisal service will be a profit for them. Don’t do it!

Ironically, visits to my domain name newswire DomainDizzy.com were up 500% yesterday, with people researching these domains and email contacts via the search engines.

pfDomains.com is pleased to announce the auction of www.UberTechnology.com. The auction, at Sedo – the world’s largest domain name brokers – ends on August 22nd at 2.32pm ET / 7.32pm UK

Uber is a German word meaning over or beyond, which has passed into common English usage as a prefix superlative, ie. to make the subject ultimate and unsurpassable, as in ‘uber cool’ or ‘uber athlete’.

Just this month (Aug 3rd) BusinesWeek reported on Google’s roadside billboard ad campaign stating:
“…A billboard campaign may sound slightly olde worlde for an ubertechnology leader like Google, but the roads concerned get traveled every day by millions of urban tech people heading into work–the target audience for Google…”

Leading domain broker Sedo.com sold more than $1.25million of disclosed domain sales for week ending March 6th. Top.com closed at 357,500Euro ($455,000) to a Russian buyer. The much-touted rise in importance of country-code domains (ccTLDs) was also borne out by Sedo’s sales package with campings.fr, porno24.de and sexcamera.nl ending in mid-$xx,xxx figures.

All of pfDomains.com’s portfolio are for sale at Sedo, and we have new names this week including WildDebt.com, LowRentProperties.com, FileFAQ.com and Gelheads.com. Check out pfDomain.com’s portfolio.

NeuStar, the organisation which runs the .biz domain extension, amongst others, has applied to domain regulator ICANN to allow one- and two-letter domain names for the .biz TLD.

Tim Switzer, VP of registry services at NeuStar explains that the introduction of the new domains will help “to increase competition in the marketplace and to raise awareness of the .biz brand.”

Many commentators reckon it badly needs it as it has failed to make an impact on the domain or business communities since its introduction in 2001. In 2008, it was the eigth most popular TLD, behind country codes .de and .co.uk, with the field headed, as always, by the .com.

The much-discussed free-for-all in top level domains is likely to arrive in December this year, the Financial Times reports, for a cool $185,000 each.

The sea change in domains, which will allow companies to have their own TLD such as .nike and .sony, has been delayed several times by controlling organisation ICANN. The FT cites the minefield companies will have in protecting their trademarks and, more importantly, how consumers will remember what comes after the dot as well as what comes before it.

Until then, dot com will remain king of domain TLDs. Many in the industry reckon it always will, as the introduction of otherextensions like .biz, .ws and .info have failed to make a dent in the globally-recognised .com.
