Who else on here owns/rents/leases ZERO domain names?

[BrokenVisage]

Or am I the only one who doesn't really care about them?

Well Google used to (up until a month or so ago) provide their e-mail services for free with your domain so setting up your own domain name e-mail cost you less than $10 a YEAR. I'd say you missed the boat on that one.

 

[blackangst1]

I dont have one

 

[ISAslot]

I let mine lapse. So i'm in your boat! Move over, i'm driving.

 

[CraigRT]

I've never owned or rented a domain name... I have no use for one..

 

[D1gger]

I have one for remote access to my Home Server, but it costs less than $15/year the last time I renewed.

It's fun for a hobby. If you work at it you can use it as a source of some extra income. Domains are pretty cheap for the initial year. It's the renewal costs that get you. If you only have a few, you can take advantage of domain transfer offers. You can usually get around 8 - 12% cashback using mrrbates/fatwallet/etc.

 

[KlokWyze]

I only have 2 domains. I don't really see the need for anymore.

 

[pontifex]

mine expires this year and i'm not renewing it. i didn't do anything with it anyway.

 

[CZroe]

None.

 

[RossMAN]

About 8 years ago I had around 110 domains, now I have about 40 for various personal, family, hobby and $$$ making sites.

zero here

I did buy one for my dad's business, but that's not mine. If I did I certainly wouldn't bother with something as boring as my name.

I have about 10-15 domains. I need them in my profession.

 

[TwiceOver]

[Platypus]

I've got two active ones

 

[AstroManLuca]

I don't have one and I don't know why I'd need one. I don't really talk about myself, I barely even post on Facebook. I know if I put up a website I would just never update it (if I even got around to making it in the first place).

 

[KeithTalent]

Don't have one and never did. No use for one that I can think of. :hmm:

Baller.com and Baller.net?

 

[MotionMan]

I own 3;

1. One is for my (and my family members) main e-mail address(es);
2. One was for an online photo album (that I no longer update);
3. One is for my uncle's philosophy essay website.

That's it.

Isn't this a tech forum? Surprising the number of people who don't own any domains.

I have like 20 or so domains... most are dormant projects or stuff that's self sufficient. I've been wanting to revive some of my sites and projects though. I can probably squeeze more money out of them if I actually put more time into them.

I'm actually surprised by the number of AT'ers who post on WHT like this guy

 

[marvdmartian]

I don't have one, have no need for it.

A friend has one of those .name domains. He's all thrilled by the fact that, for $10 a year, he has the e-mail address <his first and last name>@<his first & last name>.name. :\
