First Acquisition of 2012…

The year is very young, but I made my first domain acquisition of the year. I purchased LittleBighorn.com on a NameJet auction yesterday afternoon. The domain name has a registration date of 1999.

Little Bighorn is a historical landmark in the United States, and the National Parks Service has a monument there (Montana). You can read more about the Battle of Little Bighorn on Wikipedia or you can visit the NPS website to learn more. IMO, LittleBighorn.com will make a great historical website, although it’s more likely that I will sell it rather than develop it.

Now that I’ve shared my first acquisition, how about sharing yours?

  3. Nice grab, Elliot! Do you see much action in reselling a domain name like that? I almost picked up AdirondackPark.com but thought it would be too difficult to resell.

    My first acquisition of 2012:

    BlueWigs.com

  4. @ Elliot

    How would you target potential buyers for something like LittleBighorn.com?

    Targeting buyers for a domain name like NightLights.com or MemoryBox.com seems a little more straightforward than something like LittleBighorn.com

  5. Here are a few of my new purchases

    SmushRoom.com
    CouponConsole.com
    MarketProposals.com
    FinancialProposals.com
    SleepGuards.com
    TheCrud.com
