I’ve had this domain for a long time it feels. I just renewed it today. Someday I’ll put something on it.
When I purchased this domain on 1998.12.18 it was unique, in that it was the most amount of zero’s you could have in the domain name within the .com TLD. Twenty-Two Zero’s period com for a total of 26 characters.
Of course things changed over the years, and the domain name system changed and grew up, to support more characters for the second level as of the pool of available names started to dry up and eventually support languages and characters other than English.
I got the idea for this domain after seeing one of the customers at the company I was working at, purchased lots of domain names which included many 0’s and “-” marks for at the time, search engines regarded these characters for higher ranking in the alphabetical sense.
Now there is a limit much higher than just the original 26 characters. 63 Characters + .com = 67 Characters.

The new zero domain, unfortunately is not mine.
