    Value of .info domain names ??

    Folks, Many thanks for all your feedback and comments, it is much appreciated. Without the time, in the foreseeable future, to make anything of these I am going to cancel the upcoming renewal and let them slip back into the melting pot. I still have a few others - all .co.uk or .com...

    Value of .info domain names ??

    Late last year there was some dicussion on the forum re potential (any) value of .info domain names - with specific reference to geographic / locations in mind. At the time I took a punt on a few such items - based on UK location names, of a tourist theme. e.g. 'cityname'tourist.info...

    sedo redirects

    Fastworld, Many thanks for coming back on this topic. I will investigate this further as I have several domains which have never been developed into full sites, and should not therefore have any problems with old links. I need to get my head round just how to set this up - but again am...

    sedo redirects

    Picking up on 'fastworlds' post - perhaps you could clarify something please. I picked up on this topic as I have a couple of domains parked with SEDO for some months now - which have done very little at all in terms of generating traffic/revenue. I have checked and they do seem to be...

    Seeking advice on how to handle ....

    I have been following the forum for a few months, and although not able to spend as much time as I would like getting this started I am finding the general advise very useful reading. Having registered a few domains some months ago, I parked some of them with BODIS. None have generated any...

    Potential hot potatoe or safe?

    I like the idea of the potato - preferably with a overlay of a mobile phone keypad / screen on it. Obviously not a brand that could be instantly recognised !!!! John

    Voodoo

    Brewsters, As a newbie I am reading and learning a lot from the various threads. I have a number of Domains of a similar nature (UK Geographic) and am looking to park some of them whilst I get to grips with learning how to develop one of them, to use as a template fo the others - over...

    Has anyone been caught out by the 'Olympic' name

    Thanks guys, It was one of those 'Seemed a good idea at the time' ideas - but glad I heard about all his before I got in too deep. I have pulled what was a temporary '123 parking' page off the domain name - and deleted the domain forwarding link. Now all any exact type-in will get is a 123...

    Has anyone been caught out by the 'Olympic' name

    In the pub discussion over the weekend someone mentioned an article on SEDO relating to the very strong protection of the Olympic name, and the obvious derivities. What was more surprising was that they seem to be able to 'protect' references to such generic words/phrases as 'London 2012' or...

    Google takes aim at comparison sites...

    Interesting this one.....and worrying Are they just going to prioritise their own 'connected' services, or are they going to create a new brand for their travel services ???? John

    Terrible Domain names on TV

    Yes - RedSpottedHanky is a bit of a mouthful, BUT I think it is trying to use the 'remember the old engine driver always mopping his brow with a ......RedSpottedHanky..... type image. AND, as one who has used the site I can say they offered a superb serviec, prompt delivery, AND they do NOT...
