What was the first domain you regged?


and what was the worst?

my first domain was
www.studentdwelling.com - got it about 6 years ago but didnt renew it
(this was going to be a listing site for student lodgings - wish i still had it)

my worst is
www.colour-me-in.co.uk - look at all those hyphens!
(still got this one, going to devolop it as an educational site for schools and parents. it will have a link to amazon so you can buy illustrated books ect.)


lets hear yours

My first domain was regged for me and administered by a relative-alchemylamps.com. ( he let drop, and is now a PPC ho.)

Actually can't remember exactly what name was *my* actual first, because, from the beginning, I was regging groups of names.

My first was years ago - I was a real estate agent back then so I reg'd PNWProperty.com (pacific northwest) - someone scooped it up after I let it drop, but I just looked and noticed it's available again. Imagine that! hahah.

The worst domain I've ever owned is one that I own now - I bought it because it was cheap, got lots of traffic, had lots of google listings, and is PR5 - www.get-ru-21.com what a dash-fest. I just use it to put some of my customers' links on.

Haha, jroy. I'm glad I'm not the only one to have done that, although, after the first couple of goofs, the wasted $ motivated me to solve the problem.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-name-discussion/43185-what-was-first-domain-you-regged.html

My "best" worst are virtualfart.com and wormeater.com, two that I continue to be the proud owner of.

My first domain was GeneralBill.com (for my personal music site) back in June of 2002. My worst registration was probably a Chinese IDN with an incorrect character for green. I was trying to reg green tea, but accidentally entered the wrong character for green.

I got so many bad ones it is difficult but PyramidWebWorx.com and H2FuelCell.info come to mind.

My first was Harkrider.com -- my family name (1998) and still use it mostly for email & misc stuff.

Could have bought pottery.com (I collect, buy and sell the collectible stuff) for $35 and didn't. Been trying to track down the owner for 3 years with no luck. The hosting Co. has shut it down. So sad cause I don't have the $$$ to go after it when it expires next year.

My first was ImpactAnime.com...just an old, old hobby site. Had a very large userbase in the forum (used to be site/forum, then changed to just forum)...let it drop because the host went F%#&ing nuts ...just kept going down and down and down. Now it's some PPC portal I think...not sure, but it sure was good =P.

Worst: BlueNovaHosting.com --- bought it for some a$$hole who said he'd repay me with some gigs of space/bw. Never did, and wasted my $8
