ClayMeow Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 I'm surprised anyone has it, yikes! Gratz Sdy I said my REAL name, not my screenname . I theoretically own claymeow.com. I registered it for free through some MS thing. I never really did anything with it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queenz Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 I heard they weren't going to keep those free anymore. I didn't even know they were free. I thought you had to pay for them now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
greengiant912 Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 I got brianjfuller.com, however brianfuller.com is available on godaddy as a premium domain for like $700. If I had the money I would drop it on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdy284 Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 why/what makes it a premium domain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
greengiant912 Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 why/what makes it a premium domain? From what I have gathered, it is people selling parked domains to turn a profit. It is a common practice, people will try and register every domain out there. Since my name is fairly common it was obviously registered by someone who wanted to make a profit off the sale of it.

Phil Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 IMO it's not worth it, there are many good variations like your-name.com, your name with a middle initial.com, etc... The only time it's really of value is if you're selling something and want to catch traffic googling the exact name, but that doesn't happen often. There are also .name domains and of course .org, .net, .us, etc... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayMeow Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 I didn't even know they were free. I thought you had to pay for them now.Probably, but if you go to claymeow.com, you can clearly see mine is still there. I never did anything with it, nor do I even remember how to access it. From what I have gathered, it is people selling parked domains to turn a profit. It is a common practice, people will try and register every domain out there. Since my name is fairly common it was obviously registered by someone who wanted to make a profit off the sale of it. Unless the person who bought it has your name, you could legally claim it.
