Hi Everyone!

Finally found a site dealing with (mainly) UK-related matters

So many similar forums are US-centric (and it doesn't get much more centric than that!), so any attempted discussion of UK domaining gets the 'tumbleweed treatment'....

As for 'best and worst' names:

Worst: er, SainsburyDirect.com was not too bright..... TheSpanishInquisition.co.uk was not all that funny, either

Best: IronCastings.com sold for $4500
Fozz.com sold for $10000
Groomed.co.uk sold for £500
SessionMusicians.co.uk sold for 500 Euro
123mobile.co.uk sold for £670

A few others - never sure whether to develop or just sell the name

Hope everyone has a peaceful Christmas (that's 'Happy Holidays' for our US cousins).

Cheers.

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Fozz.com - A very nice LLLL.com sale! When did that sale happen?

Do you have any development ideas/projects on teh go at the moment?

Rich

Hi Rich - thanks for the welcome

Fozz.com was sold earlier this year, though I reg'd it about seven years ago. Not sure who wanted it, but an offer came out of the blue and I just played hard to get! Seems a high price, but the name kinda grows on you and is easy to remember - now why did I sell it

Sadly, a 'change of domestic situation' has stalled any development plans for the time being while I try to get my life back together

Hope to contribute soon.

Regards,
David
