Good luck with your scam.



Personally I think you're 5 years too late. The latest to of launched this scheme was 2006. After that Tubes and the development of the industry made your task of skimming off some cream from the top become harder. By 2011 the future is clear. The little man is so squeezed they dropping off by the day, big companies are picking up the slack and traffic. They will sue you for using their name.

How many people are going to want to spend millions to get .xxx domains is your problem.

Reserving a lot of names only works if you have a lot of buyers willing to pay your price for them. I'm small and own 30 domain I think. If you dream I'm going to spend $3,000 a year to renew them all. Dream on. $300, not a problem.

And that's a situation you'll face every year at renewal time. How many people are there able to renew.

No doubt you'll make some money, if you don't spend to much marketing this. but you're 5 years too late. IMO
