Interesting .com Domain Name Facts

Well I came upon this analysis of .com domain names in this article by Dennis Forbes called Interesting Facts About Domain Names. He takes a look at .com domains only because this is the most thought after domain extension worldwide. Some interesting conclusions that he draws are that the chances of catching a two or three letter domain name are exactly zero, unless you pay a brooker for it of course and that the chances to register a short domain name start with four-letter domain names.

He posts some nice graphs there, for example the average lenght distribution graph which shows that most domain names have a lenght of 9 to 13 letters and that more than 250000 domain names exist that use 32 or more letters for their name. Would you be able to type the following domain name without error ?

Last but not least he takes a look at names, that is male and female forenames and surnames and comes to the conclusion that a whooping 100% are taken. 15% of all combinations are still available to be registered. He also looks at the starting letter of all domain names and comes to the conclusion that domain names starting with S, C, A and M are the most common while domain names starting with Q, X, Y and Z are the most uncommon ones.
