I have seen him on the whois of some very nice geos.

Someone in Germany realized that IDNs are not only about German Umlaut.

Did you invite him to the forum?

I don't know about the arabic, but a lot of his russian IDNs look weird

What Arabic advertising/ shopping program is he using on the right column of his page?

for sure bill

this site mean ourhotel.com as he told me the site programed by his staff

you know if he register his 4000 domains just this year so he lose all the good words

nobody can found any good arabic word available to register after 2008

i cant say his domains are bad but he joined the 3rd value idn market

and registering domains from 1st to second to 3rd market give more value for the tiptop words

Basel, that was very interesting. I believe this is good news for you as you own quite a few nice arabic domains.

I would like to ask a question though.

Why do some of Bayoumy's domains have 2, 3 or even 4 hyphens in the same domains ?

For example :

العـــــالم.com has 5 hyphens (lol)
الأبــــــراج.com has 6, well.. am I missing something ?

I think he is trying to use the domains to bait the search engines. lol

I'm not even sure the tatweel will be allowed in the new version of IDNA.

They aren't hyphens in the sense of being word separators. When arabic words are separated, the same hyphen is used that we use in english - .

This is purely a decorative feature of arabic spelling that is sometimes used for emphasis. For example, in english we might describe a woman as being "sexxxxxxxxy" - repeating the x character for emphasis. While this type of spelling is extremely informal and not very commonly used in english, it is very common in arabic.

At least that's how I understand it.

For people who are not native and probably don't even now Arabic, you really take your trade seriously. It always surprises and amazes me how much you know about Arabic structure and trends more than Arabs themselves!

Wish you all best of luck!

exactlly jacksonm - perfect answer

Thanks Jacksonm, I thought the tatweel's use was strictly a word separator. +1
