Funny Expiring Domain Names

We all register head shaking domain names. Sometimes it comes after a few drinks, and sometimes we just have no clue about where the idea to register a particular domain name came from. The only thing we know is that the domain name will not be renewed upon expiration!

In honor or Rick Latona’s AmishFurniture.mobi, here are a few expiring domain names on Snapnames I am glad I didn’t register 🙂

  • PlusSizeBellyDance.com
  • IfYoureGoingThroughHellKeepGoing.com
  • MoneyMoneyCouldBeFunny.com
  • GetOffYourDeadAss.com
  • WhatTheF**kIsThisS**t.com
  • WhereIsMyRideDude.com
  • AreYouAGhost.com
  • TheBestDealInPorn.com
  • RottenTomaters.com
  • DumbmaiNames.com

Now as for some seriously good names, Rick Latona’s Extended Auction ends in just a few hours. With all the bad news being reported in the last 24 hours, now might be a good time to get some deals while people are focused on other things. Here are my top 5 favorites:

  • ThankYouCards.com
  • UsedRvs.com
  • DLE.com
  • Lisbon.com
  • Cages.com

Speaking of Cages.com… I had a conversation with Rick about this a minute ago and figured I would share my thoughts. People who own dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and other pets need cages. Pet cages can be expensive, and although you’d probably have to do a drop shipping deal (IMO, an affiliate relationship won’t pay off well enough), this could be a money making website if you have an interest in this vertical.

The thing is, people don’t necessarily know brands of cages, so they look for “dog cages” or “bird cages” rather than for a specific brand, which certainly helps with the name. Compared to bikes, where people search more like “Trek mountain bike” or “Specialized road bikes,” people are much less brand sensitive when buying animal cages.

At an opening bid of $35,000 I think this is a good deal. Although Rick is an advertiser, he is not compensating me to post this, isn’t compensating me if this name sells, and I don’t know who the owner is.

  1. My picks,

    IfYoureGoingThroughHellKeepGoing.com
    GetOffYourDeadAss.com
    WhereIsMyRideDude.com
    AreYouAGhost.com
    RottenTomaters.com.com

    I can’t stop laughing…

    Thanks!

  2. I still have SmartMotherF@#$er.com – funny thing is I get an inquiry to buy it every few months!

    The downside of owning a name like that is when somebody Googles you and that ends up being on the first page results! Ouch!

    Makes a good case for paying for ‘privacy’!
