    All EeePC Web domain names already taken?

    Aprile 29th, 2008 by Jack

    Why is everybody trying to get the grips on a Web domain name containing the Asus EeePC words?This may seem sort of an obsession, but I’m really intrigued by this analysis and by the question: Is there a Web domain containing the Eee PC name still free in the world? It’s never happened for any other niche product, and of course not in such a short time for any product at all, I think.
    Actually, the hunt started by the EeePC phenomenon a few months ago had, as its first preys, the following names: asuseeepc, eeepc, eee-pc (and to some extend asus-eeepc or e3pc).
    Forget all at once the traditional .com, .net, .info and .org extensions, as they’ve probably been taken first. Forget, also, the major European and international geographical extensions, because in very country of the world  there must have been some smart guy (or company) rady to pick the local asuseeepc, eeepc or eee-pc domain name still available.
    All these Web domains, in fact, aren’t massively found in SEDO lists as it happens with some other kind of word or acronym. Instead, they’re often already used for a Web site, blog, forum or simple AdSense oriented mini-site. Those still not hooked on a Web site of any sort, are maybe waiting for a buyer or just an idea or project to be fulfilled.
    But the hunt for EeePC-related Web domain names doesn’t stop here. I’m not the only one who tried coupling the usual prefix or suffix words with Asus subnotebook’s name, such in myeeepc, eeepcplanet, eeepcuser, eeepcworld and of course eeepcshop… and I’m not just talking about .com, .net, .biz and .org extensions, but also geographical ones. You can try searching for .it, .fr, .es, .de (or even .pl, .hu and .ru), or maybe for .ca, .au or .br examples using the handy Whois DomainTools interface to check for yourself the (un)availability or use of these Web domain names in the world.
    Are you going to be the next lucky owner of an EeePC-named Web domain? Let me know!

    The hunt for EEE PC Web domain names

    Aprile 11th, 2008 by Jack

    La ricerca del dominio eeepcplanet.com sul servizio WHOISHow can you measure the success of a product? In a global market where the Internet and the Web play an increasing role in visibility and marketing, the hunt for Web domains containing the product’s name is a clear symptom of its importance. In the case of the Asus EEE PC subnotebook, of course, the hunt has started soon and it’s already a difficult task to find a free useful name for your own Web domain or blog.
    Before launching the EEE PC Planet Web site I’ve searched (as I usually do since a few years in my Web development, nanopublishing and SEO activities) deeply and widely for such occurrences, discovering how many domain names containint the words Asus EEE PC have been already registered and often ‘parked’ (probably by cybersquatter waiting to sell or use them somehow). You can easily check this situation using a tool/service like WHOIS, or even better trying with a wildcard (I.E. using the asterisk) domain name search in Global Whois.
    Of course most of the Web domains containing just the three letters EEE are related to various subjects, ranging from the famous E3 fair to the drug ideintified by the same acronym and related to amphetamins. The search, then, in my particular case was related to Web domain names containing the words EEEPC, EEE-PC, E3PC with or without the word ASUS before them.
    Don’t forget, by the way, that many people mistype Asus subnotebook’s name writing erroneously EEPC instead of EEEPC, as the stats of my BlogPlaNet blog site have shown, where the post related to the EEE PC, initially published with a missing E in its heading, is often reached by Google searches. The results producted by this sort of wrong search show, of course, also the various articles and even sites wrongly using the ‘cut’ versione of the name EEEPC.
    Regarding already registered Web domain names, many of those resulting active and worth being defined Web sites or blogs will be reviewed and listed on this site, of course, but I won’t miss the opportunity to keep an eye on those still ‘parked’ to discover what’s their fate. In my particular case, let me reveal I’ve registered three more Web domain names together with EEEPCPLANET.COM but I challenge you to discover their names, and show me how smart you are as Web detectives ;-)
    I’m going to help you, just know that on of them has been checked with a mistype during the last week, and as I can see from my stats has re-directed on this site Google searchers from Serbia and Montenegro, Australia, Philippines, Spain, Iran, Russia, Romania, Costa Rica, Canada and of course USA.
