I made a big cock up!


If anybody here remembers, when I launched my question and answer site

a few months ago, I was dead set on having a TOP DOMAIN NAME


So set, that I sacrificed nearly 50% equity

NOT ONLY THAT but the guy who owned the premium domain

wanted me to pay him each month for the pleasure of using his domain

So he was getting, equity and a nice lease every month - Life was cool for this guy!


BEING THE COMPLETE FOOL, I IGNORED EVERYBODIES ADVICE

WHICH WAS TO OWN MY OWN DOMAIN NAME AND TO FORGET THE

PREMIUM DOMAIN NAME



Development was starting to go slower than expected, my programmer

has over activities that were taking priority


I started to get annoyed at paying this guy money every month to use his domain name

He was not prepared to let me get away with one single month without a payment

So I decided better to pull the plug now


My site reached Page Rank 3 inside 10 weeks

Thats not too shabby!

We were starting to get people coming from long tail keywords etc

I know that it would only get better and better BUT


I figured, SCRAP it before I'm too far in and SET UP FROM NEW, AGAIN

USING THE SAME CODE that has cost me $$$$


THIS TIME I WILL OWN THE DOMAIN and have much greater equity


WTF!!! If only I had listened to people here, I would be infront of myself!!!

(I'm actually sorry for not listening) :(


It will take me another few months to; rebrand on a new domain name

and get the site back to where it is today,

but I'm sure it'll be worth it in the long run

This has came about because I sacrificed control from DAY ONE


NEVER SACRAFICE CONTROL LIKE I DID


All I can say is - F*ck
