Ask HN: How many domain names do you own?

Posted by mcgyver on Monday April 05, 2010 @02:50AM
from the ask-hn dept.

With about 7 domains to my name I find it hard to justify buying too many domains without following through by building something under them. How many domains names do HN frequenters have stashed away?

7 that I'm using 5-10 that I'm looking to get rid of, and around 10-15 that I'm hanging onto for other people.

Two for myself (one it in the "will I follow through?" stage), several for a business that my father is trying to put together (nature (as in geology) is currently being uncooperative).

http://mcsquare.me is one of probably more than 20 Domains I own.

Three at the moment, though it changes. I always have a personal one and then a few others for my pet projects.

Wow. Never actually counted before. 34. Somehow, I think most are in use somehow or another.

I'm just under 50 at the moment. Off the top of my head, I think five of those 50 are idle.
