1Pizza wanted us to buy their 1pizza.com domain name
We told them it didn’t look like a phone number.
The phone went silent….
This began the Pizza Cold War.
Shortly thereafter, 1Pizza.com gave up and left the US for Russia where they sell sushi and pizza. In Russia the dash is not part of the phone overlay system like it is here in the United States. This proved the value for 1-Pizza.com over domain names that just stick a number in front of a keyword.
With proper branding, a few pizza ovens, pizza chefs and phones, 1-Pizza will function as a pizza brand with a built in connector between the internet and phones. Crappy cell phone service is why people still call to order pizza.
KiiWii’s got this one……
