| | An offer appeared in a magazine here recently.
The advertisement was a "get a good domain name here" and for a reasonable sum offered you
"myname.nz.com"
(if I remember correctly-may have been net or something similar)
Looks good, when you find the name you want at "myname.co.nz" is already taken.
But if you look at the URL the domain is actually NZ.COM and all they were offering is a sub-domain and redirect off that domain. And still wanted full price for it.
Anyone else seen this practice in other domain areas?

Here in lovely england, loads of companies have s similar thing. www.whatever.uk.comI assumed it was cheaper than actually buying your own domain, but I guess I was wrong.

To us experienced internet users, I guess we can spot that outrageous scam immediately. But I suppose that are quite a number of internet users who are unaware of technical stuff and will fall for such tricks. Isn't it?

Amazing Results From Reverse Ip Domain Check Tool
(7) Here is a reverse IP domain check tool that takes the domain name or IP address of a web server and
searches for other sites known to be hosted on that same web server. Data is gathered from search
engine results, which is not guaranteed to be complete. Knowing the other web sites hosted on a web
server is important from both an SEO and web filtering perspective, particularly for those on shared
web hosting plans. I tried it with dserban.astahost.com, and I was impressed with the results.
