Introduction Hello from England

Hi

I am new to the forum, and more of a casual domainer than I assume most of you are, more like a casual web developer. I have been involved in online retail and blogs for 6 years and have built websites for myself and others usually friends but also some business ones. Throughout the course of this I have acquired quite a few domains, again probably a relatively small number compared to most members on here. I think around 15-20 on last count. My girlfriend thinks i am a bit of a hoarder which probably explains my domain collection.

I have mainly come to the forum looking for new domains and opportunities but I may now and then be tempted to sell one but more likely that would be if I need cash to buy a good one!

I believe I am meant to post my best and worst domains but my reasons for what is good will probably be completely different to the general consensus of the forum so I will explain my thoughts:

Best - chic-furniture.co.uk (I am building a store on here so that's why I like it)

Worst - bowflex-selecttech.co.uk (I got this for someone else to build a store for them but they pulled out of the deal that is why it is a half built mess lol)

Welcome Crispy - don't take any notice of Wizard: he wrote the book on hoarding domains, lol

*Must dash, got about 100 renewal/suspension emails from Nominet just arrived in my inbox to deal with*

Seriously: good advice Wizard, and Crispy you will find many a sage on here and a wealth of information

Go well,

LB

Hi and welcome. I am probably also a casual domainer but I am looking to get more serious over the coming months.

Thanks for the welcome messages guys

Only been on the forum a day and have learned a lot already and had some good offers of domains for a project I am working on.

I think I like it here!
