Top Picks

The number of expired .CA domains on the TBR list has remained consistent over the last few months (though with a slight upward trend) and with 8842 new listings this week, this translates into a jump of just under 400. The overall quality is mediocre at best, and the wave of premium domain drops may have come to an abrupt end. It was actually a real chore to determine our Top Picks, when in previous weeks it was difficult to narrow the list down.

Looks like I picked the wrong week to select a Top Picks list, but there is one top-end LLL domain, ALR.CA, along with a few interesting word listings like JETTISON.CA, CLOSINGS.CA and LAUGHABLE.CA.

ALR.ca – An extremely high-end letter combination, starting with the popular “A”. then “L” and the ending “R” (for use with Resources, Registered, Review, etc.). It’s like the Wheel of Fortune bonus round.
Abbreviation.ca – Long word, but singular and could be useful in branding or domain-based businesses.
Closings.ca – Sure it’s a plural, but it could find uses in the realtor, housing and mortgage areas due to these all being synonymous with the word “closing”.
Jettison.ca – Singular and unique word that has immediate branding possibilities.
Laughable.ca –  Not a premium word, but it’s certainly a cut above this week’s options.
WeBuyGold.ca – We may not be in a domain keyword-oriented world anymore, but this saying has universal appeal, especially in tough times.

 

LL.CA Domains

None.

Other LLL.CA Domains

There are seventeen leftover LLL domains this week (up eleven from last week), but other than the near-perfect ALR.CA, there are no other truly premium letter combinations. Many of these contain at least one undesirable character (J, Q, X, Y, Z), and often the letter combination is still too low-end enough to hit our Top Picks. There are a lot of low-to-mid-range options this week, like BUH.ca, FIK.ca, FUG.ca, GEK.ca, KEK.ca, KAU.ca, VNT.ca, and PMB.ca,  but most have difficult ending letters.

One of the most important factors of lower-end LLL.CA domains like these is the presence of a company, especially a large North American multinational, using the corresponding .COM.

BUH.ca – .COM resolves to Bösen & Heinke.
FIK.ca – No resolving .COM company.
FUG.ca – No resolving .COM company.
GEK.ca – No resolving .COM company.

PLZ.ca – No resolving .COM company.
PMB.ca – No resolving .COM company.
VNT.ca – .COM resolves to Virtual Network Technologies, an early-2000’s-era site (complete with music).
YFT.ca – No resolving .COM company.
ZJS.ca – No resolving .COM company.
ZSS.ca – .COM resolves to Zivetz, Schwartz & Saltsman.
