    Default Would your rent a domain name?

    I went to a forum today where I say lots of domain names for rent, don't quite know how that will work, but would you rent a domain name ?

    I am not sure I will put all my efforts into maketing a domain that will be going back to another person in the future.

    All depends on what the domain name is.
    If I was a purveyor of fine plastic implements and the domain sex.com was up for rent, it would be worth considering.
    The domain would have to be popular already

    I won't. Domain names are really cheap so I would register for on

    Hm
    I replied maybe.
    It all decides on how much to rent and the quality it has been left in.
    Also if you needed a short term website and you are using a low budget, i would say its necesary.

    Instead of renting a domain name, I would allow someone to develop a website using my domain name and get a cut of the profits. Like a kind of parternship.
    That's another way of looking at this.

    I wouldn't.

    One because I am not going to build up a domain name that I won't own in the end, why build it up for someone else to enjoy later.

    Two, the domain name could have a bad reputation or banned on Google.

    I currently have a domain up for rent. Truth, it's a very good name but not sure many companies would go for something like this unless there was a buy out clause included.
