Rare Premium 2 Letter Domain is up for Sale

Aug. 1, 2011 - PRLog -- After nearly 20 years, the domain name of ZY.COM is up for auction.

Two letter dot com (.com) domains were sold out in 1994, and have become a much sought-after commodity. They are rarely for sale out on the market. ZY is one of only 676 two letter .com domain names in existence. Not only is it an extremely rare domain name, but it is pronounceable as well.

Two letter domain names are incredibly easy to remember. ZY is also pronounceable in both Chinese and English making it far more valuable than combinations such as XH and FJ.

Recently sold domains are ts.com for $186,000, hx.com for $125,000, ay.com for $101,000 and FB.com which sold for $8.5M.

ZY.com is arguably better than any of these unpronounceable domains.  Who knows how much it will be worth in the future as premium domain name values continue to increase.  This domain name could be used as an abbreviation for many things.  There are 149,000,000 results for the search term "ZY" in Google, and hundreds or even thousands of corporations, companies, and businesses worldwide that ZY could be an acronym for. It is even an acronym for the town of Zhong Yuan in China.

Despite the introduction of other top level domains, such as .info and .tv and .mobi,  the two letter .com domains remain the most prestigious and valuable.

Over the past two years very few two-letter domain names have come up on the market. Those that have include:

FB.com - $8,500,000 (sold to Facebook)

LI.com -   $500,000

TS.com - $186,000

CR.com - $150,000

HX.com - $125,000 (purchased by a Chinese company)

Companies worldwide have pursued the ZY.COM domain over the years. Most recently, offers have come from the USA and China.

Domain names are an excellent investment and retain their value extremely well. Such a short and memorable domain such as www.zy.com will always be desirable.
