What’s your funniest domain story?
A: I bought the domain name ILovetheSausage.com for my client that sells sausage.. She did not see the humor in it,nor would she use the domain. I used her affiliate program and the domain, until she found out. Even though it was the majority of her sausage sales, she asked me to stop using it to point to her site. I tried to remove the spoon, but no luck.

What would you like to delegate most when you’re domaining?
parsing domains, monitoring auctions, data mining, etc.
A: Talking to people about buying or selling domains. If I could sell without the need to talk to idiots and people with no money or vision.

A: Google's change of the EMD in SERPS. Google canceling the Google domains program. (Was that what it was called?) and oh yeah Google.

This is what I do and who I am.. Until recently I have had no need to drag myself into forums to sell domains, advertise anything. You can thank Google and the new gTLDs for my presence.

If you dont mind, how much this name in 1995? :xf.cool:

I paid $1000 to the company to register the domain and it included the first years hosting.
I had no idea what I was doing, nor did they. At the end of the second year they charged me $1400 for the year in hosting as the site was a bandwidth and server hog. That is when I started my own hosting company.
DS1s were only $3k in my area and a server cost me about $1500. (DYI server)
If I remember correctly the yearly registration was either $100 per year or $75 per with a two year minimum. in 1995.
Soon after it went to $50 with a two year, then $25 with a two year, then pretty much to were we are now.
I pay just over $8 for domains per year.

Welcome back buddy!
Where have you been? Were you abducted by Aliens...


Actually I have been!
I wrote a book once in 1990.. While at work. They took it from me and disciplined me for writing while at work.
Almost 4 years later my book came out as the movie, Fire In the Sky
imdb .com /title /tt0106912/
I am not saying someone stole my book and it became a movie. I am just saying, the movie is almost exactly my book. My book was written from my experiences.

I have since moved to an Alien no fly zone and they have not visited me since.

I just contacted gd about this issue. Gd tech said to contact Sedo; so I did. Deleted welcomebuck.com from there. Now is back at gd, hopefully this issue will fade....


If you are a domainer, why are you using Godaddy and not your own service?
Check out Domainsecure.net. I have the price set as low as GD will let me.

Is any of this serious? A company took your work?
