It’s no big secret that many domainers have been registered any and all available LLLLL.com domain names, (Even LLLLLL.com domains), especially in the past month or two.
While I noticed a big uptick on the registration of LLLLL.com domains, I have also noticed a big uptick in the number of UDRP’s being filed on what just seem to be a good repeater or a pronounceable short domain
UDRP Decisions:
DORNA WSBK ORGANIZATION S.R.L. wins UDRP on the domain name SBKKK.com
CNN wins UDRP on the domain name CNNRS.com
Blackberry wins UDRP on the domain name bbpgp.com
WILO SE Wins separate UDRP on ahwilo.com; hnwilo, Njwilo.com,
Chengdu Jiushi Agel Ecommerce Ltd wins UDRP on tjkx.com
Pending UDRP Cases
sidi.com
daara.com
flamp.com
burri.com
fırat.com
workmo.com
torneo.com
pamas.com
It is a better idea to always check for trademark infringement before registering or buying a domain name.
The longer the domain, the higher the chances of it being a word or an existing brand (as in these cases). That definitely affects domain brand shops that sell brandables with a “logo” as a freebie. Always check the domains for tm issues.
Considering there are over 11 million LLLLL.coms…
Lets add pamas.com to the list
if you register if for reg fee is it that much of a problem

Its only a problem if you don’t get a chance to give the domain up with a C & D letter and a UDRP is filed and you loses a few, then you can get labeled by a UDRP as a serial cybersquatter which makes defending a valuable domain much harder in a UDRP
