: Is having a letter "z" in your (short) domain a bad idea? I recently found this post posted by WhoAPI in 2013 and as you scroll down, at the bottom you'll find a section talking a part
I recently found this post posted by WhoAPI in 2013 and as you scroll down, at the bottom you'll find a section talking a part about letters in the domain:
It goes so far that there is a general consensus among domainers, and
letter frequency statistics also indicate, that there are premium
letters, average letters, and bad letters.
Premium letters: a b c d e f g h i l m n o p r s t
Average letters: j k u v w
Bad letters: q x y z
With this paragraph above in mind, does it still work for a 5 letter .com domain?
Someone has told me that if the z is in a dictionary word (e.g. zero(.)com) it'll still be valuable, but how about it's in a abbreviation (e.g. John and David's Technology discussing zone -> jdtdz(.)com)?
So will a 5 letter domain which is a abbreviation of a long word worth it to register and use as your own domain?
P.S. I'm not buying to sell, I'm buying for own use.

So will a 5 letter domain which is a abbreviation of a long word worth it to register and use as your own domain?
No. Well maybe a yes if its a well known abbreviation, but you want to cater your website to your users so you want your domain name to be something people will likely type in when they want to access your website manually.
For example:
If you're doing a site about fancy cars, then a nice domain would be:
fancycars.com
However, don't use this domain:
fc.com
because people wouldn't even think F would stand for fancy and C would stand for cars.
By putting in the most important keyword of your site right in the domain name itself, you might get a boost in search engines.
