Hello!

Hey - I've recently acquired a bunch of domains, and I am here to learn more about the business.
I've been in the hosting biz for many years, but know very little about the world of domain'ing.

Best/worst domain?

I've got a lot of co.uk's, but my worst domain is probably a .com:
who-ate-all-the-pies.com ?

I've got many "best" domains...but I think yoda.co.uk is my favorite.
Other favorites would be say.co.uk, angry.co.uk, evil.co.uk etc etc.

Thanks!

only owned them a few weeks. I've bought a bunch of domains recently, trying to figure out what to do with them. This is the full list...

Did you get some of the names from Another.com or are you part of them?
They have so many awesome names.

Your sedo portfolio says you have almost 9,000 domains!

What's your story?

What's your story?
My name is Ditlev Bredahl, I was the CEO of a business called UK2Group (you probably know UK2.net from back in the old days). At UK2 I acquired Another.com ltd. and after selling UK2Group I've been running a business called OnApp.
The new owners of UK2Group found that Another.com was outside of their core business and I had a chance to acquire the full domain portfolio a few weeks ago.
I've always liked those domains, and felt that there was a chance to do a lot of fun stuff with them...so, that's the story.

Correction - I just found out I own poo.co.uk, that gotta be the worst one

Wow . Thanks for sharing.

So are you going to spend your pennies on adding to the portfolio or developing some of the beauties you now own?
