    Afternoon all, referred here by a friend of mine when I was buying some domains from a member.

    Im Martin, based in Kent but travel a lot - have been known to do some web marketing, SEO and PPC. Also have a domain addiction. You know how some people hoard stuff till they cant get in their houses? Yeah, well, thats me with domains.

    Best Domain? Well, best one Im willing to disclose, as ranked by the sedo algo would be gnu.cc, but its a sh*te TLD.

    Worst Domain? Hmmmmm... so many to choose from. Ive got about 30 "iPadHD......." ones bought before they called it the retina. gits.

    Anyway, hello all!

    Robbie Williams = Legend apart from his drug abuse in earlier years.

    I used to do a lot of speculating in the entertainment/ticketing niche's, buying up domains relating to artists + tickets, or in somecases just artist names when they were available.

    During that time I received two C&D's one from Robbie's management team, the other from encore tickets (I had the .net of their brand), both were being used as affiliate sites referring traffic back to ticket sales websites.

    Ive still got a few hanging around in my account, things like:

    O2ARENATICKETS.CO.UK << (awesome, but asking for C&D territory)
    V-FESTIVAL-TICKETS.COM
    TICKETPRICECOMPARISON.CO.UK << (awesome, but would take some work)
    RUSSELLHOWARDTICKETS.COM

    Probably a dozen or so other similar ones, just noticed Ive got a whitney one, not that its worth anything now!!
