    Hi all, Just thought i'd drop in and say hello as i've just joined your community. I have an interest in domains and hosting so this forum seems perfect for me to dig my teeth into and find out things I never knew!

    Welcome!
    Do you currently own any domains?

    Hi! Yes, I have 150+ .uk/.co.uk/.org.uk/.me.uk domains. This is purely a hobby for me at the moment. No idea what any of them are worth :)

    I picked up despicable.me.uk a few weeks back as a fun domain. I like taxi.me.uk, digitaldrawings.co.uk, dieselengineer.co.uk, reuse.me.uk, advertise.me.uk
    Worst I suppose would be hotdogshop.co.uk & uk, ke3.co.uk, wierd.uk (spelt wrong lol), buyithere.co.uk, brandgaff.uk & .co.uk

    Hard to really pick out good vs bad as I suppose i saw something in every one I picked up.

    Hi Cuckmere,

    If you are looking to sell any of the names I would strongly suggest putting up landing pages. I use Dan.com but lots of good ones out there.

    This a great place to find out so much about the world of domaining.

    Thank you! I've put a few up on flip.uk and I have a dan.com account. I don't know which one is better for selling. Don't mind putting a few hours in updating nameservers on domains so they resolve to the respective landing pages.

    No problem yes flip.uk, is free to list and definitely starting to see more listings.

    it’s amazing how many domains you come across with no lander? Like anything the more work you put in the better the rewards.
