  • 10 or so, most are for sale on name cheap in the hope I might make a few dollars

    I tend to create projects for all my domains, if not expiring within first year. Currently only 1 still not being used..

    I got a couple of .info on a sale for $10 per 10 years, but didn't really start using them, and they now only have a couple of years remaining. Pretty obviously turned out that .info is not something I would want to actually use, even for that cheap.

  • around 10, some still have hope

  • @DP tell us?

  • risharderisharde Patron Provider, Veteran

    Had about 24 idle, but gradually beginning to use them

    Like most companies, we use the .com domain to conduct business but reserve about 20+ of the most common TLD's simply to prevent others from registering those domains. They just redirect to the .com.

    • yoursunny.com , website, not idle
    • yoursunny.cn , previously Chinese version of the website, now merged into .com , idle, plan to drop by the end of this year because .cn domain is more expensive than others
    • yoursunny.dev , main domain idle but subdomains in use
    • ndn.today , home of the push-ups, definitely not idle
    • vds.wiki , idle, will post auction when it has 6 months
    Thanked by 1devp
  • I have 25 domains in total.

    3 of them are marked as unused.
    1 of them is a joke domain that exists to annoy people.
    8 or more of them point to the same website. I suppose I am TLD squatting for those.
    The rest are all in active use.

    I suppose you could say I have 3 unused domains, but there are indeed a lot that don't need to exist, and are purely to squat a specific word at multiple TLDs.

    Are handshake domains included? I have registered two of them. Definitely idling given the lack of support for them right now.

    For regular domains, I just picked up an .ovh recently since they are cheaper. As of now, it's idling.

    So just 1 + 2HS.

    @yoursunny said: vds.wiki

    An awesome domain name.
    Primary info that domain name references is "VDS info for nerds".
    I recommend @yoursunny to use domain name for a "Server Oriented Wiki" listing posts from your professional commited hard work.

  • I only have 3 active domains. But, tons of subdomains, lol. All for docker instances. Had a lot of idle domains in the past, so I convince myself to buy for what I only need.

  • @BetaMaster said: I only have 3 active domains. But, tons of subdomains, lol. All for docker instances. Had a lot of idle domains in the past, so I convince myself to buy for what I only need.

    Prefer to use a path router ( redirect may work as well ) to access docker instances rather than pointing to each docker through subdomain.

    Never did that before. How to do that? Until now, I only use swag or nginx proxy manager for reverse proxy.

  • @BetaMaster said: How to do that?

    Thats Proxy and Redirect.

    You are already using Proxy.

    I sold three unused domains last year and have two that I have not sold yet.

    The three domains that I sold here did not bid up to my value expectations, but they were my first domain selling experiences. I wonder whether it was my choice of selling venue (here at LowEndTalk) or unreasonable expectations of the value of the domains. It was probably a combination of both.

    I am trying to decide how to deal with the two domains that remain. I believe that one of them has significant value for a VPS provider, but am not sure how best (or where) to monetize it.

  • 20+ and still buying more whenever I felt nice.
