    Default What to do with a domain name and hosting?

    Welcome back satisfied customer.

    I registered a new web name and paid for domain hosting some time ago, when I saw what I had registered I was, well erhh, shocked to say the least.

    The website sounds like a porno site :eek: www.diy4u.com.au there is no site there so dont click.

    So now the question is, what do I do with it?
    Hosting a porno site is not out of the question by the way.

    All answers gratefully recieved, as Im at a loss to figure out what to do with it

    Suggestions are invited for themes for Al's new website. Here's a couple of possibly headers for the home page

    Welcome to the Wonderful World of Juan King.

    or, possibly

    You could use it as a download server address while you work out if you like the name well enough to use it.

    The name doesn't grab me but it doesn't turn me off either so maybe it would be a good DIY site name.

    I'd be a bit wary of a site with a com au address, knowing the general victorian attitudes that prevail it may give you some grief. Use a com address for that.

    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    You could make it a virtual shop. That way you could have some golden balls on the home page.

    Boom boom!

    And tees to rest them on when you drive off (old Rolls-Royce gag ).
