Thread: The value of having short domain

Came across this link that basically says that there is a lot of typo when sending emails. I suspect that one of the reason is longer user domain. So in affect having a short domain obviously alleviates some of the typo.

E-mail typos result in 20GB of stolen data - CNN.com

Shorter domain helps organisations to spend less effort as most of the interal applications will use the sub domaining... like jobs.microsoft.com ... jobs.msoft.com obviously consume less typing efforts than the earlier one, when you look into an organisations over all efforts where they are having so many employees working it may be wiser to keep it a shorter name provided its rightly represeting the brand and other parameters specific to organisation products/services they are offering.

Having a short domains has lots of advantages
1.It is easy for the user to remember the domain name

Also remember that smartphones will still have huge booms in the next year to 3 and i believe shorter domains will be easier to type-in on a smartphone than a 3 word .in.I think lll.ins could easily provide a good foundation to indian tech startups and online companies to lauch and keep a good,sizable audience. Purchasing via the internet is also increasing, so buying on smartphones will increase too. Short domains like lll.ins do not go down in value. period.The worst might stay at a stunted,low price, but thats the only anomaly.Besides, you can play the simple numbers game with llls- The more lll.ins get sold on the aftermarket, the smaller the lll.in market,so price goes up, favoring the supplier(you). It might take 3-6 years, but it is easily worth the while.

In my very honest,stubborn opinion, if you do not think llls are good/decent investments or asset in any solid extension, then you are not a true domainer.3character.com really shows presents the niche quite well.
