Why are digital domain names so valuable? What do digital domain names represent?

Digital domain names are more valuable than we think, especially in China. Some people have done statistics and found that 80% of digital domain names are purchased by Chinese people. Numbers are a language in Chinese culture. Different numbers have different meanings, which determines the different values of domain names. Chinese people are willing to pay high prices for digital domain names, which is an innate value. Let's take a look at the meanings of the numbers 0-9.

1. Meaning of 0-9 numbers

0. is an integer. Digital domain names ending with 0 usually have higher values. The more 0s behind it, the higher the value. Digital domains starting with 0 usually have lower values.

1 reads like "want". This is not a very good number and usually carries a lower value.

2 expresses the meaning of "love". There is a Chinese proverb, "good things come in pairs". So 2 also means lucky.

3 represents "three gives birth to all things", so it is considered a lucky number. It is usually related to "more".

4 represents the meaning of death. This is why any combination of numerical domain names with this number has a low value. In many cases, people skip using the number "4". Even in the number of floors of commercial housing, it is taboo! 4 is also considered bad in Japan and South Korea.

5 means "five blessings come to the door, five grains are abundant", which means auspiciousness in China, and the five-star red flag is also five.

6 means smooth or wealth in Cantonese, and also means "six six smooth", which is the same as "slip". 666 is a popular online word that has emerged in recent years, so it is considered good for business.

7 symbolizes unity. It sounds like the essence of life. It is a lucky number in the West. And it is also good in Chinese culture.

8 means wealth. It is the same as "prosperity". 8 is the luckiest number in Chinese culture. The more 8 numbers, the better. Generally, mobile phone numbers, license plate numbers, and room numbers with the number 8 are more popular.

9 represents "long-lasting", and in ancient times there was "nine nines return to one, nine nines eighty-one difficulties", etc. It is also the largest number from 0 to 9, and is more popular with Chinese people.

2. Number combination homophonic puns

There are many types of number combinations, including 1 number, 2 numbers, 3 numbers and 4 numbers, as well as number combinations such as AAAA, AABC, AAAB, etc. The more numbers of the same number, the higher the value. Currently, many digital domain names have been sold, but they are not used to operate projects. The most famous one is "88.com", which is worth hundreds of millions of yuan.

A. There are also some number combinations, such as continuous reading:

1234 is more valuable than 2143.

B. Paired numbers are considered lucky and therefore more valuable. For example, 6677.com is more valuable than 7763.com or 8766.com.

C. Number sequences often sound like various expressions. For example, the expression 666 is similar to the saying "you are very successful".

D. 1688 is valuable because it is easy to remember and because it means "all the way" in Chinese. E. 1314 "a lifetime", which can be used for dating, matchmaking or anything related to love.

F. 520/521 means "I love you".

3. Popular numbers in domain names

There are some numbers or combinations of numbers that are particularly attractive to businesses. Let's look at some -

360: This is an integer that represents the entire or complete service. Previously, JD's domain name was "360buy", but later it was discovered that people would mistake it for "360 Security Guard" and buy "jd.com" at a high price.

365: This represents the entire year or complete annual service. There is a self-study website "zikao365.com" in China, which is very popular among self-study students across the country.

24: It represents a whole day, and this digital domain name has been sold.

247: This number represents all real-time services. "24 hours a day, 7 days a week service".

888: This number represents China's wealth and is often sold in the Chinese market. There is also the digital domain name "88.com" that once caused a sensation.

The above is about the meaning of digital domain names. It is said that digital domain names are the most popular in China because different numbers have different homophones, which enriches numbers with more meaning in Chinese culture. Because of this, if you see someone's mobile phone number or license plate number is composed of the same number combination, you will definitely think "this person is very financially strong." In other words, numbers are a symbol of identity in a sense, so digital domain names are so valuable.
