Re: From an "old school" webmaster: good advice
I remember posts on a board years ago from a model (maybe a cam girl, maybe a porn star, but someone with a "name" that was known) going apeshit because someone had purchased hername.com. Up until that point, it had never even occured to me to purchase morgangrayson.com. However, after reading about her heartache and loss of potential income, I scooped up my name. For the longest time, all I did with it was...nothing. I just made certain that I owned it. Then in June or so I put up a non-adult site, intending to work on that as a way of keeping busy. I never expected money out of it. (Good thing, too!) Then, in July, for reasons that I still can't explain, I checked out Oprano for the first time in years, saw Red's post looking for writers...and was back into adult after years of being away.
But I'm very, very glad I bought my name years ago and kept renewing it.
