FitnessGirl at 1K was a good buy and could have become a great fashion sports brand. So the choice is register another and spend 68k on marketing and development, welcome to domaining!
It was not 1K it was $777 as the other member wrote. For me, not cheap.
I could not understand when you typed: "So the choice is register another and spend 68k on marketing and development"
Did you read all messages of this thread?
Why do you think this domain has 68K on marketing and development?
It does not appear (when you type 'fitnessgirl' in google) in the first 10 pages. Do you know what happens when your domain is not in the FIRST page of Google? How many clicks it will receive?
And I imagine you did not read, but it has a 'ADULT' history. So, all good corporate firewalls has this domains as an adult domain and for this reason it is blocked.
Go ahead and reg the other option(s) without negative history.
A fellow domainer is trying to sell that name; doubt you will get the "professional replies" that you are looking for. You have mentioned that name several times in your posts, why?
You know you are not going to buy the name because of the price + history, so why ask him to explain how he came to that price?
The seller can ask for whatever he wants, you pay / negotiate / move on.
I asked him because I imagined I could ask people here and received the replies.
Do you really think he will explain me why he is asking all this money for a domain he bought for $777 ?
It is the SECOND TIME you typed this.
It is the second time you make this slight charge.
Either you have a mental problem or you can not understand what I was looking for in this thread.
Read its SUBJECT.
Can you explain why it got so expensive in such a short time?
I think not.
This domain has been in existence for YEARS. It was not registered in 2016. Quit writing nonsense.
The easiest way, since you think that I am the owner of this domain and I am seeking to promote it (and fortunately, only you and another one had this genial idea - that I tried to ignore of so ridiculous), is ceasing to appear here and respond. The thread will disappear from the first page, no one else will respond and you will, in the end, be happy that your (self-promoting domain) idea will be demonstrated.
I think you think this forum is the most important forum for the fitnessgirl domain to be well-ranked on Google.
No, it's not.
And if your theory were true, this same thread would be posted on DIFFERENT (dozens) OF OTHER FORUMS.
I suggest you start looking for this.
I appear very little here because I do not have more than 25 domains. So I come in from time to time, I see some promotion suggestion (coupon) and I'm leaving. I never noticed that there were other postings on other subjects.
In the day that I activate to participate more of the forum, I see people like you that possess conspiracy theories if someone asks about DOMAIN in a domain forum.
You are very good. I'll stop here because every minute typing here I'm missing out on doing something more relevant.
TO ALL THOSE WHO HELPED TO CLARIFY, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
