Hi, X.com is pointing to paypal.com ... It's clear why shorter names are more valuable.  Regards |

Thats pretty interested. I realize shorter domains are easier to remember, but what is the reasoning for PayPal to have purchased and forwarded x.com? I haven't seen any PayPal adverts with x.com in them.

Right, you would think that would have got pp.com, but that sounds a little nasty. LOL Johnny |

Nope they bought it years ago.
Back a few years ago there was x.com and paypal.com
Both did the same type of thing but x.com sold out to paypal and they merged together... I had an account with both at the time.

I want to have a domain from 2-3 letters because all are good. You can get a lot of money without any effort.

X is a good letter, Imagine the value of the domain if it were to go to auction!

That explains things ZuraX. That domain must be worth a huge amount now, I wonder what the value for a one letter .com would be  |
