dot SG Domains: Infopreneur.SG and Tycoon.SG

I was feeling vain and decided to register a couple .SG domains. Just cannot tahan that TC registering a hundred of those keyword .SG domains e.g. success, mlm, tea, spirulina and etc. So I also registered 2 fanciful domain names, “infopreneur” and “tycoon“.

There is no real content on both websites yet. And I have not really decided what to do with them. Maybe, I will published some ebooks and put them on infopreneur.sg.

Update Jan 2006
I decided to gave up the infopreneur.sg domain after 1 year and retain tycoon.sg. Over the past year, I have been accumulating more .SG domains and these cost me a big sum of money. Also, .SG domain names do not resale value due to the restrictions placed by SGNIC. I reckon it would be better to save the money and invest in a couple of good .COM domains. Visit Domain-Name-Trading.com for more information.

Yes, put all those Eleven Thousands articles there and make that into an archive complete with local search engine. But, I’ll need a programmer to do some scripts for me to automate the process. I am too lazy to edit and upload all the 11,000 articles.

As for Tycoon.sg, I really don’t think I should be talking about about dead tycoons lah! But the problem is I don’t have much information on the live tycoons like our Mr Ng and Mr Oei. So you know any sources or information on these tycoons, please put them in the comments.

I registered 2 domain names using my name:

These domains are to facilitate my friends and business associates to contact me. The landing page is basically a contact form which will forward the message to my personal email account. Why not just use email? You probably know it’s not really safe to hand out your business email address just like that. My name and email address was used to register some online networking marketing program. And then you get some people who put your email address togather with 30 other addresses in the c.c. list - the ideal fodder for malicious hackers.

Just having a landing page with a contact form is boring so I thought why not start a blog and write about how I go about my every day life. Not that it is colorful, interesting or even juicy but more for venting my frustrations and letting off the steam and more importantly is to practise writing.
