My first domain

This month the cancellation of my very first domain finally took place … samedia.de, home for my small business / self-employment adventure for over ten years. After I decided to close the business down when moving to Denmark, I also made the decision that I could save a few bucks by ending the contract for the domain. And now it’s finally done!

Funny / strange thing is … it was immediately bought by an estonian domain broker … for whatever reason?!
But apparently the name seems to be interesting for others …

That made me check a few other possibilities …

  • .asia – free
  • .at – free
  • .be – free
  • .biz – free
  • .cc – well it’s in Chinese!?
  • .ch – free
  • .com – reserved, but dead
  • .co.uk – some domain broker
  • .de – the mentioned estonian domain broker
  • .es – free
  • .eu – some Greek web service thingy
  • .info – webpage of some church
  • .me – free
  • .me.uk – free
  • .mobi – some domain broker
  • .net – same as eu
  • .nl – reserved, but dead
  • .org – forward to some (strange) salvation army page
  • .org.uk – free
  • .tv – some video production site
I guess that could go on forever, but I still do not see the brokering point …
