Numbers Replacing Letters In Domain Names - Any Good?

[GingerApple]

Hi,

Just wondering if domains such as the following were any good:

G4mbling.com
H1m.co.uk
H3r.co.uk

What's your view on these? Are they worth anything, or just the reg fee?

Thanks, Will

Car license plates, yes

Domains never a good one IMO unless sometimes it is 2 or 4, as in love2 or fish4 etc

Sometimes the '0' can act as the letter 'o'.
Also, you can do domain hacks like MOBlLES.com -letter I is actually a lower-case L (Which I own), good for Google Adwords domains!

I have to agree with GreyWing here, unless the number replaces a word or is used as general 'text speak' for instance gr8mobilephones.com or similar then I don't see a lot of value.

Of course domains like h1m.co.uk or h3r.co.uk will have value as a 3char domains but as words I'm not convinced.
