What's the weirdest domain name you bought?

Sometimes you get a shower thought and the next thing you do is ending up owning a domain for it. Drop the one you own that is weirdly funny :)

Currently - spammy.co - NotFckngTrash.com (related to none garbage NFT projects and artworks) - artisnotfart.com Had some NSFW domains in the past, really good one, but not sure it's a good place to mention it.

@enderm Actually i dropped this domain last year, and now is on sale for $1k

@stefan_smiljkovic Wow. How much domains you have now? Curious!

I'm bad at cybersquatting. I've never registered weird domains in my life. Maybe I should start? Which one would you recommend to register? 😏

acolyte-des-illustres.fr L'Acaémie Française decided it should the proper translation of "Follower" in French. Unsurprisingly the term never got traction.

I bought M4M.so for my marketing 4makers community. Someone told me that M4M is actually something porn related 😅

I bought 300 emoji domain names from Kazakhstan and built an email service: https://tinyprojects.dev/project...

@tinyprojects @drawtheweb1 I remember as well and really liked the story. This could/should be NFT?

I purchased http://bharatmetaverse.com/ (Metaverse for India) and themetaverse.is (a website to write extensively about Metaverse). Only worked on Bharat Metaverse. And the other domain, which is costlier is lying dormant 😅

Schoool.com.au because school.com.au was offered at $20k. Of course, offering a marketplace to schools with a typo in it shouldn't raise any flags 😉

Cheesesharks.com (and a bunch of variants of the same name). Back in '15 I was super into creating some kind of cheesy snack brand with a sharky twist. Fun times for sure, but in the end I had to kill the project ✋

Not weird but I bought growthhackers.blog wanted to blog about growthhacking to learn more but not using right now

Archisman Das
arewebeatcovid19.com - Was planning to build something around it but realised better data dashboards had arrived.
Jenny Nicholson
comepet.me had an idea that involved dogs but end up doing nothing more than buying an accidentally NSFW-ish domain
Mantas
I haven't bought, but the strangest domain I had years ago was with .tk extension. Even today you can get one completely for free :)

HireEmmett.work
Michael Marra
marvel.shopping

Lol. I can relate! richwomenclub.com. still don't know why I bought this domain name 😆
Stefan Smiljkovic
@zaram u wanted to create a community of rich womens only maybe?
Ezima Chizaram
@stefan_smiljkovic It was actually to build a community of women hustlers. But I can't find the motivation to continue with the project right now. Maybe sometime in the future, I will.
