Cyber Squatters Must Hang

Here is some wonderful advice for people who accidentally lose domain names. Do not pay to get them back.

I had a domain name I didn’t care about. It expired. Later on, I thought maybe I should renew it. Godaddy told me to pay some horrendous figure–$89, I think–to get it out of domain name purgatory or whatever. I told them to forget it. The name was auctioned, and some fool bought it. They sent me an email, threatening to build a commercial site on the domain, which would rob all my traffic, and offering to sell it back to me for $500. My response? “Enjoy your new domain.”

That was a week or two ago. I just checked Godaddy. The name is available for ten bucks.

I think I’ll renew the name and send an email to the squatters. I’ll say I made a terrible mistake and that the name is worth ten thousand dollars to me. Then I can laugh while they whois the name and find out it’s taken.

What’s the best domain to use to promote my book?
