Rajesh, the answer in my opinion is "no". The LLL.com investors quite rightly made money. Now LLLL.com is making a little money. But LLLLL.com is exponentially (literally) a VERY long-term investment. Plus, the possibility of them ever meaning anything is exponentially less likely. Why don't you consider LLL.org.uk - there's an opportunity with quite a few left at reg fee. UK is a large domain market.

First rate advice. I second that....

I have to agree with aZooZa on this one. All LLLL.com's was recently registered, which is crazy considering that there are 456976 different LLLL.com combinations.

There are more than 11,8 million LLLLL.com combinations and I see it less likely that all will be taken any time soon, if ever at all .. Thus there will always be LLLLL.com's available for registration and therefore their value can never get near that of LLL.com's or LLLL.com's.

Apart from as said some dictionary words and some "brandable" names (but hey what isn't brandable) the 5L supply is just too damn large I'll stick my foot out and say they'll probably never all be registered anytime soon.

but hey there are some nice 5L acronyms out there if your willing to search through the millions.

Rajesh, I wouldn't do it. There are a number of domainers out there who flip them now and get lucky with a few of them. Even as a long term investment I'd argue that you would be better off finding a good name and developing a site around it.

I recently picked up AndBy.com on a drop.

Yeah, I'll pay $13 bucks for that!

+1 for pretty all above advice. Branch out into strategic ccTLD domains before going for meaningless 5 character .coms - unless they are dictionary or proper names...

and.. as I have said since... 1982... build it. Develop!

As the market went from lll.com to 3 char l&n combos and now LLLL's, the demand could go to .in or .cn before it goes to LLLLL.com. I have a LLLLL.com that I bought cause it is brandable sounding but you can get some great .in for under $4 for the first year and 14ish after that. place your bets
