Buying Domain Names can either be fun or be hurtful
In my case I should be fairly happy as I own around 100 domains, out of 100 domains around 40 4 letter domains I own as well which are highly valuable.
One of my favourites would have to actually be a .net though out of all my 40 or so 4LLL.com’s. It is also an established website, let me introduce it to you GSEO.net stands for Google Search Engine Optimization.
But the one in which I recently tried to acquire was believe it or not from my own birth name Daniel Lew. Now when I went to register this domain guess what?
It was taken, Yes that’s right folks It wasn’t only just randomly registered by someone for 1 year, It was registered for 10 flippen years, and the name is just sitting there?
Very Odd wouldn’t you agree? Because let me tell you there are not many daniel lew’s in this world let alone danny or dan lew let me be the first Dan Lew to have registered DanLew.com now that is got to hurt this guy back don’t you think?
Or perhaps Danny Lew in which my old friends and family know me by, yep I quickly snapped that one up www.dannylew.com nobody is taking that baby away.
To be honest personally I like being called Dan or Daniel as it’s more humble and formal particularly when dealing with clients.
But let me get to the ever more interesting bit Daniel Lew is actually bought and owned from a Graphic Design Photography Company as you can see here:

Did this guy or company see myself around the Internet and think Hey? this guy is going to be a Success if he isn’t already from all his brilliant marketing techniques and yeah we better quickly buy this guys name as it appears it’s going to be a success a bit like BradPitt.com.
Or on the other hand I can see from his registrant details he is running a Creative Agency, So what does this mean that all Daniel Lew’s are the owner’s of Creative Agencies?
Because this is actually what I do for a living this and more I am the Director of my own successful Advertising Agency which deals in that and a whole lot more including SEO and Online Marketing. Whatever the story we will be sure to find out . Welcome to DanLew.com
I check my name but it has taken by a popular start. In .net it is available, but i .com are more common. It feels good when you have a domain on your own name.

Yes, exactly (although it's not really a big matter).
My real name is available, but I'm more comfort with my surf name "Akira07"
Let me Tell you Den, When i was searching domain name for one of my niche site , i searched for two complete days and still not getting even close to what i was looking for, out of frustration i gave up and settle with a name i don't like that much which ultimately discourage me to drop the idea to build a site around it.
It was bitter experience.
