    Hi guys,
    I do not know if this is weird but I have a domain fetish!! I like to search for domains.

    Sometimes I look for domains for myself, or friends, and I would get that kind of satisfaction like, "Yess!! This domain is very suitable for this business! Well done!!"

    I find it hard to explain. So wondering if anyone has got such a fetish or desire to look for nice domains.

    Oh yea... due to my fetish for domains, I am offering to help people who are looking for new domains for their new sites, just to get that sense of achievement.

    Feel free to pm me, or post here if you dun mind people knowing the details..

    Allan

    Lol...I've never heard of the term "domain fetish" before. Yes, I am always out there looking for decent names to invest in. I'm sure that there are many domainers out there just like me.

    Guess you could call me a bit of a "domain addict", hehe. ;)

    I've been attending Domainers Anon and i have found the program doesnt work.. The words PR Update, Premium, LLL.com and Dictionary Domain all still seem to trigger symptoms.

    That is so funny! Glad I'm not alone.

    I spend my spare time searching for good domains and I'm always offering to help others to find a good domain name.

    I have two small domain registrars Pixel Cube and QuestMatrix Domains; I'm also a Super Reseller to others who want to become a reseller.

    I have a yearly subscription to DeletedDomains.com

    So Yes I'm Addicted!

    Guilty as well :)

    Piles of the damn things just cluttering up my hosting, most of which just seemed like a good idea -- goatseller.com for example -- what's the point of that???

    -- I'm glad you've given my ailment a name!

    Wow, sounds like I'm not alone! I'm new to this stuff, but I already qualify for Domainers Anon (though Sweetfunny says it doesn't work, so I suppose I'll just accept it and enjoy it)!

    Even I have such kind of tendencies, searching for a particular domain 'that should belong to me' is available or not.

    Well i wouldn't call it fetish but passion. I like registering, selling, parking domain names and i try to hold my self from registering more. I stopped now that i exceeded a little more the 1200 domains limit. I liquidated many of them so far and i continue

    Yesterday i sold 22 and i felt the urge to go register 50 more
