Domain Squatting my porn, wtf?

I want to own bikeporn.com, alas it is already taken.

Well I'm sure it is being put to good use. Let's check in with them to see what is up: "No web site is configured at this address."

Thanks, Ilan C. Paltrow of Charlotte, NC! Your contribution to the internerds is woefully under appreciated.

But what about some other URLs? like bikeporn.net? Coincidentally the Domain Squatter lives in my hometown (barely). Colin Mannex of 8315 sw 67th place Portland (aka Tigard), Oregon has nothing but annoying ads on his page.

Lee Levitt of Needham MA kinda sums up my feelings on the matter with his website Bikeporn.org: "Bike Porn..."

cause really what more is there to say?

Wired Magazine gave some advice on how do deal with Domain Squatters. One method is to buy up every possible misspelling of your website.

  1. So I registered bikeporn.org with every intention of putting up some good bike porn. For us hardcore cyclists, bike porn is pictures of high end bicycles. No girls involved (or guys even.)

    My son pointed out that bikeporn.org might be blocked by corporate routers, so I also registered lovelylugs.net, but alas, I haven't put any pictures of bikes up on that site either.

    Maybe someday when I have some spare time...

  2. That would be excellent, and thanks for letting us know what your situtaion is. When you finally do get your site up and running we will def point to ya!

    That being said we are sure that many of our readers would take exception to your definition of what a hardcore cyclist is (or is not).
