Any hope for numerical .mobi names?

[seanboy]

Not NNN.mobi's, but numbers that are equivalent to words. I only ask because I regged 8255(talk) .mobi and I'm wondering if this was a smart move or not. I know that many names like this have been regged already.

8255.mobi will be ok because it is not a bad number regardless of what it spells. I would be wary of registering long number words though, as the problem is that it is not intuitive to spell in numbers when using domain names, and the cost of educating the public is likely to be huge.

I got a couple, but only 4 number ones where the numbers are good on their own, e.g. 2277.mobi (car/bars; but more importantly just a good number!)

I do note that someone has registered 3569377.mobi (Flowers!)

That someone is me :thumb:

I also have 356937.mobi (flower)

I regged these many days before the TRAFFIC Auction.

So what could this be worth?? Any ideas ? :scared:

Dont hold your breath...but possibly it maybe of interest to the under bidder on Flowers.mobi, which i hear was Flowers.com as they already use the numbers in their 1800 3569377 phone number.

I wouldnt spend too long waiting by the phone just yet though!

Certainly you will always get a good multiple on the reg. cost.

Cheers.

I own these:

8255 .mobi (talk .mobi)
72346 .mobi (radio .mobi)
872835 .mobi (travel .mobi)
786257 .mobi (stocks .mobi)
843367 .mobi (videos .mobi)
668437 .mobi (movies .mobi)
62228 .mobi (macau. mobi)
10005 .mobi (Zip Code - NYC financial district/Wall Street)

I know that regging these was kind of a gamble, but oh well. I guess that I will have to wait and see what happens...

Just read in the newspaper today that Macau casinos took in some 500+ Million $ in September. Macau has now passed Las Vegas as the top gambling location in the world, in terms of gambling revenues. So your 62228 . mobi might not be a 'bad bet'.
