Popular Post elektrified Posted July 8, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2012 Sorry, I have to laugh. Clearly you missed the boat on this one as the country is called MYANMAR! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Judging from a good third of your domains dealing with singles/girls/love/brides etc. I glean you expect the country to become a major dating and mailorder bride market within the next few years. And unless Myanmar decides to revert back to the country's old name Burma anytime soon, you're going to sit on your proudly displayed domains like on a basket of rotting durians that nobdy wants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phl Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 How much did you pay for the domains? looking at the number of domains, "plus a few more", i say a bundle, hope OP can remember all the passwords for the admin and does not mind if someone registers variations such as (example) OP-burmaexpatsclub.com New person-expatsclubburma.com or burma-expatsclub.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QED Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Besides the EPIC fail on the Burma/Myanmar thing, you also spelt tourist wrong (burmaturist.com) Also I would imagine they will get their own suffix, like Malaysia (.co.my) and Indonesia (.co.id) etc. Here we have .co.th but it is not widely used, in those countries all websites have the country suffix. Come on tell us, how much? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

w11guy Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I have a rule in life that if I do something really stupid I don't post it on a public forum. That all those domain names were available should tell you something. That something is that no-one wants them. Why didn't you get the Birma domains as well as the Burma ones? You could have cornered the market for those that can't spell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalangBaa Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Firstly, all of those domains are crap, you have misspelled the English in several of them; secondly, you have inserted 's' unnecessarily (e.g. burmagirlsfinder.com instead of burmagirlfinder.com); thirdly, the country is not called Burma; and fourthly, it's going to be a very long time before the ordinary people in that country have internet access, and it's also unlikely to become a major hub for ex-pats, which you seem to be targeting with these domains. Congratulations, you have just thrown away your money. Then again, probably not even half as much money as you throw at Thai girls every single month. What were you thinking by registering crap domains for a non-existent country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalangBaa Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Besides the EPIC fail on the Burma/Myanmar thing, you also spelt tourist wrong (burmaturist.com) Actually, a burmaturist is a Burmese naturist. Note that he also registered burmanude.com. The clever devil is trying to corner the market in Burmese naturism! To foil his cunning plan, I will have to register burmanudes.com as well as burmanood.com and burmanoods.com so as to also corner the market of naturists with poor spelling skills.

Come on tell us, how much? Unless OP got a bulk discount its usually $5-$7 per domain, so few hundred$$ Verisign controls .com and charge between $7-8 per domain (bulk). Most registrars now charge around $10 for a .com, though if you are a big buyer you may find it a little cheaper. The cheapest consumer price I'm able to find at this time is $9.43 for a .com, including free privacy protection. Some registrars sell the domain at a loss first year, presumably in the hope that you will renew the domains at an inflated price for many years to follow.

Phil Conners Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Yes that's what I said, they sell you at a loss first year in the hope of recovering the loss later. That was my second line. Samsiam, I'll send you a PM with the registrar I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
