usno1.com, USA No.1, without any doubt, it is best one in usa, so can use any commercial or business usno1.net, usa No.1, as same as above jpno1.com, japan No.1, without any doubt, No.1 is the best things in japan, any one will sell can use it and any business. jpno1.net, japan No.1, as same as jpno1.com
These are terrible from a marketing stand point IMO. Yes, the No.1 can be inferred, but what the eyes see and the brain registers is US NO 1 (US No one) and the positive intention just took a 180
I also can think that us no 1 can be compared with it, it is only one in usa. I think it's value is short and easy to remember
Well here goes my opinion for what its worth! A domain such as any of these will only be worth something if you work heavily at branding because they are not SE friendly and unless you put a ton of work into branding and marketing ,it is very hard to make the domain valuable to sell. Now does that mean they are worthless ... I think not .. because a domain is only as good as the work put into it I own some HOT domains but are they worth alot - maybe - maybe not but it will be alot harder if I dont establish them in the index and drive a fair amount of traffic to them! Look at some of theses notty domain names and to us today they are MEGA HIT names! But when they started people hadnt a clus what a DMOZ was .. it was all marketing, branding and exposure ... Plain and simple .. there is no free lunch in domains ... people want to make fast money turning the domains over cause they think they are cool ... your better to go buy a lottory ticket or you can put a little effort in it and earn an income!
I don't see any value at all - sure they could be used by anyone, but a company wants to have their own identity. I can't imagine anyone wanting to name their company after those domain names. JMO
Yeah and nobody saw any value in a rock until someone put it in a pretty box and had 1 heck of a marketing plan and made millions off what most saw as worthless. Its no worse of an name then google .... its all about finding the right angle, and being good at marketing ... People think they need a flashy name to be successful in marketing of course the name has a bearing on it but ultimately it is all about the marketing and MOST of all numbers ... Marketing is all about numbers and how many times you can get your product/url/service infront of the market! I mean look at some of the names that are big today! .. ing.com geico.com myspace.com Dmoz.com They dont say nothing descriptive and you would even be impessed or think anything of those names if it wasnt for great marketing and exposure! So why would usno1.com be any different ? as a matter of fact I can do something right now usNo1.com and it it already looks like a few ways to market it could be developed. The point is ............. A domain is only as good as the marketing ... Period!
Soooo, your point is that if you dump millions of dollars into a domain name it would become branded and thus worth something? Ummm, duh! Were talking about the value of a domain as it sits now. You can't factor in future marketing into a domain names worth. I think if if someone was going to pick a name to market, they would pay for a better name. Those names are no worse than google? uh, ok, if you say so. A domain is only as good as the marketing? I can think of a lot of cases where you are wrong. i.e. sex.com made millions of dollars without ANY marketing.
The minute you begin speaking lile this (see quote) you are no longer worth speaking to. It is obvious you are out to prove yourself smart but you ignorance shines! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Now to address the statement made by this obviously uneducated marketing persons comments to the rest of the thread ... No dumping a million into a domain wont neccessarily do it ! But a great marketing plan that is implemented well can! to give you an example A company with very little money devised a marketing scheme that would allow them to take a no-name product a launch it globally on a thin budget not to mention , they had not even product one of these products before but only had the plans to do so They put a team of people to go out to the stores and began asking for this product and had a tele marketing firm calling all the stores in the USA Well the store owners started calling the distributors and started asking if they could get these too ... and the distributers started calling the wholesalers ... soon the phones at this great marketing productless company started ringing off the hook for orders and before they had produced 1 of their products or fired up an assembly line to produce them ... who were they Jordache Jeans sold 15 million pairs of jeans before making one pair two people start with a good marketing idea and took a name like Jordache and now are worth millions .....................
Mr chow and i think you distort domain name real meaning. last ten days ago i want to answere you, but my computer was a flash failure, today I want still to say something. why some one willing to pay big money to buy a telephone number or car's number? these number itself have real value? no. it is only a just number,alike case have so many.... domain name is also a just a name, but some one want to use the name develop their business, they have to pay big money to buy it and if you want to get alike domain name you must to pay effort in it, it's different with you buy a lottery so simple! domain name already become a investment business attracting many people indulge in. you dumps millon money to develop your website or others commercial business is another matter and no any relation with domain name aspect. surely, there are many notable company have succeed in their business by a ordinary domain name, but if you have so such alike sex.com domain name, you still speak so alike words?
Your Jordache story is a complete fabrication - it never happened. The Nakash brothers marketed their jeans with an agressive advertising and print campaign (topless blonde wearing skin-tight jeans). They spent millions of dollars in advertising to brand their jeans and sold 3 million in pairs in all of 1979.
mjewel, do you know the UKno1.com domain name? UKno1 is used by a famous company whose advertisement already all through out my country, the famous company which i don't remmber its name cost million pounds to make advertisement to sell it's article and make succeed at now. I sure some one in usa will willing get commercial successuly , because some one already get succeed in uk. If he develop his business become NO1 in usa or japan, he aren't to need so this domain name? at current, you don't think these domain name is good domain name, but can you make sure it's future is good or not? if you interest it, I can resell to you, but I afraid you can not afford it.
UKno1.com was hosted on a tripod account that is no longer working - and this "famous company" that you can't remember the name of spent millions of pounds on it? Since I guess I can't afford your domain, I would suggest putting such a valuable premium name on SEDO and let the bidding war begin!
Mr mjewel: you suggestion is very good! thanks you a lot! I already parking my this domain in sedo at last month and gained high click ratio, more further I already have getting some money of advertisement.
