A lot of my snapped 3-char .COM domains were owned by Asian speculators, and apparently some were used as free mail URLs :D

So anyone bidding on my eBay auctions gets a whole lot for their buck.

non english traffic is generally considered low value at the moment

That's essentially the drawback of acquiring namespace that was owned by someone who is now dead. The spirit comes back to haunt you :eek:

I acquire namespace that is new, I will pay good money to owners that are still alive, to keep the spirit factor divorced. :D

I've no problem with funny little IPs that start with 212 and their location is in obscure places like Chianxjion, Quanzoox etc.

Chinese seem to be obsessed with the letter X.
As it is, I resell these domains, not keep them. But the traffic they currently generate is interesting.

Strange that there are so many "4"s in your domains, asians being very wary of this number as its cantonese and mandorin pronunciation is similar to "Death". Hence, no worse number to have associated with yourself if you are Asian. So, maybe they chose to let them drop like the plague :laugh:

I think that new owner might receive endless streams of spam misdirected to the former owners of the free email addresses ... assuming the you have a catch-all or use those usernames, etc.

So the lucky new owner will get endless streams of asian sourced emails ... lucky him or her (I own a few 3 letters ... (no numbers in the mix) and enjoy the same "benefit" .....

Best of luck :)

I have no problem selling these domains as the 4 is a nice substitute for "FOR" for us westerners.
I also register domains that contain 8 and X as they make interesting combinations.

My buyers are usually entrepreneurs that want a short and memorable domain to associate with their long and hard to remember URL. I have no problem selling these domains but I could use some more exposure.

I think nice, leggy women is the right way :D
