Chasing short and three-character names

Short names and three-character .uk domains are among the most contested drops there are, and the store description calls them out specifically as candidates for a dedicated server.

Because so many catchers pursue the same handful of valuable short names, success comes down to how many well-timed create attempts you can land in the release window and how quickly they reach the backend. A dedicated server provides both: multi-core capacity for many parallel sockets, and a position tuned for low round-trip time to Nominet.

If your target list is weighted towards these premium short names rather than long-tail drops, the dedicated tier is built for you.
