How long before all LLLL .co.uk domains are gone.

Anyone care to speculate how long it will be before all of the four letter .co.uk domains will be bought up?

I'd give it 18 months, maximum.

That's nearly half a million domains and IMO most have no value.

Their's still a few meaningful (or at least better than hyzw.co.uk) LLLL.co.uk's still out there just need to open your mind . Which would mean a better after reg value of more than $15
I reg'd yuca last night as I already had yucca org uk and thought wow yuca co uk still available!

Setting adsense up on them and will pay for them selves in a few months.

You would be surprised what prices some of these LLLL.com domains sell for!

Many of the drivers for buying up LLLL.co.uk domains are the same as for buying LLLL.com s. Many are marketable and easy to remember. There will be a lot of bad letter combinations that no one will want particularly, but .co.uk domains are relatively cheap to register and I would guess that someone will just grab the last remaining domains at the end.

Same with 3 letter .org.uk s.

Does someone with a DAC want to do a check at what's left to reg?

What's interesting is that nearly one third of forum members think that four letter .co.uk domain names will never be bought up completely.
