What do I mean? Well if you buy a domain name out of impulse, then you might be addicted. Buying 10 domain names in less than a year is another sign that you might be addicted. If you bought a domain like takeasniff.com, just so that you could reference it, in fine print, within your arts project, then you truely are addicted. Hi, my name is Ivan and I’m a domain-buy-a-holic. Well, what’s so addicting about it? Buying Domains is like buying property in some ways; but in other ways it is worse. With each domain name bought, the quality of the remaining names deteriates due to the fact that shorter names are now taken. It is a huge market as can be seen on eBay. The owner of pizza.com was paid $2,000,000 for the name alone. That is ridiculus because all it is, is a substitute for an IP address and only one variable needs to be changed to link the name server to the web server. My addiction sprung up due to fact that I lost a good domain name to someone else. That name was aditin.com planned for an in-game ad network.
