domain VirginDiary.com

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I bought this domain recently.
Any opinions on this? How much is it worth?

Might look at putting this in the Adult section.

I don't appraise adult domain names. Someone here may.

Good luck!

I don't think its an adult domain.
Anyone?

Watch out that you don't upset Richard Branson. Several years ago he sued (and lost!) a case where someone had the name "Virgin" in their domain. It was a guy whose surname was really Virgin and he was using the domain to promote his own small carpentry business.

I don't really know what you might use the name VirginDiary for other than some kind of erotic (adult) stuff. Did you have any ideas about its potential use.

What about a teen blog or something like that? Virgin doesn't specifically mean "erotica".
BTW, VirginDiary.net redirects to Virgin company. So, what kind of legal issues I might face? Anyone?

If the company Virgin already owns the .net of your .com, and they purchased it before you did, then you will face TM issues assuredly.

I would delete the name, or, just give it straight to Virgin and save someone else the headache that you will be having real soon if you don't get rid of it.

Good luck!

Reg fee. IMO.

The dairy of a virgin sounds pretty darn boring. In addition, there is no reason to piss off his Lord Richard Branson. Grace delete, do a complete system scan, and try again.

Thanks for your opinions.
BTW, If they own the .net, then why dint they register the .com? or sue the person who owned it before?
