Costly Mistake

[Melldrew]

A while ago I wanted to start my own website. It was to be based on my travels and work with horses. Though due to other priorities and ill health never got round to it. What I never checked before setting up the domain was a simple spelling mistake. After over 40 years with horses should of noticed. Makes me feel a bit of an idiot. Eventually decided to sell the domain. It was only then that I noticed my spelling mistake. The one I had entered was worth $181.00. Just covering the cost of keeping it.The one I intended to buy was worth $5,200 !

Taught myself a lesson even if it was expensive. Since then I have been able to purchase the same domain for next to nothing but from a new domain provider. Be careful folks when setting up your site that you have not made a mistake that could be costly. In the event you are unable to find it with a dot com extension you can try here.

It is free for 7 days.

spell checker is an indispensable tool even in domain name registration. yes be careful when registering, but nowadays, people parked misspelled domain name intentionally just in case other to stumble upon it due to mistyping the domain.
