Straightforwardly domains of this type are mainly used in online-gambling. And at the beginning, we make clear that except for official lotteries as the China Sports Lottery and the China Welfare Lottery, and legal gambling in HK and MO, all other forms of gambling are illegal in China.

 

From time to time we see numeric domains or domains composed of letters & numbers sold at prices far higher than (even several times the prices of) others of the same type. Many of them are bought to offer illegal online-gambling services.

[e.g. ]

Hg235.com sold at ¥20,888 (equally $3000+) via BIN

Hg6966.com sold at ¥18,800 (equally $2700+) via BIN

 

Here’s how to recognize domains of this type:

 

(a.) Pure Numeric Domains

The shorter the better - but for domains of this type even it’s a 8-number domain, still worths a lot of money as long as it’s got a good pattern in numbers like 26888888.com.

 

For domains of this type, the number 8 is better than 9, and 9 is better than 6

(8 stands for fortune, 9 for permanence, 6 for luck)

 

(b.) Pure Alphabetical Domains

Pay attention to the following keywords:

HG - initials of HuangGuang(CN Pinyin), means Crown(EN). Crown Resorts Limited is one of Australia’s largest gaming and entertainment groups.
