Hi Guys

Hi everyone,

I have been collecting domains for a while now (over 100) and thought I better educate myself a little so here I am.

This looks like a great place to learn from others and hopefully be able to contribute one day also.

Welcome, tell us do you register in specific areas/business types ( you don't have to mention THE areas/business types if you don't want to ) or do you register anything that takes your fancy?

Hi Paul! I reckon you're right, this is the place to be for domain wisdom!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. I'm in Melbourne, more specifically, the Mornington Peninsula.

I have been mainly buying domains in the 4WD niche lately.

I probably got interested in domaining when I registered 'optus.com' for free back in the mid 90's. Couldn't believe it was unregistered and had a feeling this internet thing could be BIG! I had that for about 10 years until WIPO eventually pried it out of my hands

Trademarks have been around for a long time lol, especially the big companies =) but did you get any parking revenue of that domain for 10 years lol

Yeah, I was happy holding onto it even though the offers were getting more tempting.
