Using Your Domain Name As Your Actual License Plate Number.
Marcus over at DomainingUK.com published an article today comparing the viral popularity of vanity license plates in the UK with domaining. I agree that there are more on the road today than ever before. What I’ve also seen are domain names AS the license plate number.
I’ve seen a couple instances where someone used a short domain name as the plate number, such as ESPN.com or MSN.com. Most states will allow you to use 7 or 8 characters, which gives you enough space for a CCCCC.com. I’ve even seen a state put the DOT in there as an actual imprint. I wish I had the picture to post here as I saw it on the net.
I figured why not? If you have a website with such a short name, why not put it on your plate?
People would notice it just as much if not more than a decal on your rear windshield. The cleverness and vagueness (no logo to frighten people away) could entice many people to type it in when they get home.
Anyone else seen this on a license plate?

How about your naming your yacht with a domain and showcasing it on the side of your yacht?
IBuyThe.com
VintageYachtSales.com
LottaYachtas.com
YachtToTrot.com
Or you could use a great call to action domain like:
IamSoLuckyWantToGetLucky.com It would be a great domain for a rich single heir(ess) or Lucky Jeans Corporate Yacht!!
***EDIT***
That’ll work too! I can see people naming their boat after their blog or something.
Funny thing is I thought I was clever when I thought of this, but I’ve searched Google since and discovered I’m not the first domainer to point this out: DotSauce posted about it last year.

Hey thanks for the mention Scott. There are definite opportunities available.
In the UK we have to have at least one number on the plate, so there’s quite a bit of ‘hacking’; 3 instead of E, 5 for S etc.
