Hello Everyone,

I have been searching for something like for awhile and here I am. While I have been in the internet business for most of my adult life (15+ years and counting) I have never been a domain afficiando.

I have to admit I have always been fascinated by how a domain name can change ones career path, and I have witnessed first hand what a top level domain can mean to an individual or a company.

After watching my friend buy and sell a high level domain in the UK back in the late 90's I thought "what the heck if I don't buy something now I am never going to be able to afford a good domain name" so I jumped in and purchased;

single.co.uk,
paintings.co.uk
salon.co.uk
dominos.com.

To date I haven't done a dang thing with any of them other than cash parking them for a small pittance each month.The only traffic they get is pure type in traffic which is within a 5% variance every month.
Since I am a low level Savant my goal will be to listen, learn and hopefully with the help of some very knowledgeable people in this community build out one or maybe all of these domains into something that I can be proud of.

Hope to get to know some of you.
Cheers and beers

Welcome. Some great names there! Single.co.uk obviously lends itself to dating, but the others are nice as well...

egghater · 29-10-2010, 05:23:13 PM

Yes..now I just need to get off my lazy duff and build them out or find someone who wants to work with me on it..

Lovely domains and a great introduction, nice to meet you.

Dominos.com must have fetched a nice price?
