Random intarwebs guy tries to profit off of deaddad.net, fails
This was in my inbox this morning:
domains and either selling them to individuals such as
yourself or building out our own web presence on those
valuable domains.
deaddad.com is a pretty darn good domain name and,
the truth is, the .COM is a far stronger version of the
name than the .NET is.
* .Com is the strongest brand on the internet.
When people think of a website, they intuitively
think '.com'. Odds are people trying to get to
your website are inadvertently going to deaddad.com
because they assume that's where they can find you.
* .Com conveys Professionalism that .net & .org
cannot match.
If you'd like to own deaddad.com, you can buy it
now by covering our acquisition costs and a modest profit.
If you have any interest I encourage you to act quickly
because this domain name will only be offered for sale
for a limited time.
The funniest part (except perhaps the irony of randomly capitalizing "Professionalism") is that they want $558 for it! Did he even look at our site? I don't think it exactly screams "up-and-coming-business-with-marketing-budget."
Recently, deaddad.com expired and went into a
domain name auction. We acquired it and, since you
own the .net version of this domain name, we
wanted to provide you with the opportunity to own the
preferred .com version.

Well, if you buy the name and this site gets to be the biggest thing since Boing Boing, I want 12% of the gross for my contributions.
If you want me to stop contributing, that'll cost you 25% of the gross.
