information Cons of Registering Political Domain Names

[News]

Every election cycle, and even months or years prior to an election, thousands of domain names are registered by people hoping to cash in on registering the “right” domain names. This is especially the case with the US Presidential election, where people attempt to register domains related to the presumptive candidates.

There are three cons to registering political domain names that I want to share with you. I know that there are many readers who read this blog that are fairly new to the business of domain names, and I want to share some of the reasons I think it is unwise to register political candidate domain names.

If you disagree with any of these reasons, or if you have other reasons, you are welcome to share them in the comment section.

Bad publicity – I don’t know about you, but I would be a bit embarrassed if CNN or Fox News wanted to interview me about a candidate domain name I owned. Perhaps this is because I don’t really like politics, but it’s something that I would consider a negative, especially if the interview poked fun at the registration!
