Hello guys, I hope you're well.

So I bought a domain name that was perfect for my niche. I just took at look at it via the Wayback Machine and since it's inception in 2008, it's been attached to a legit website in it's name's niche for the majority of it's life. It died in 20018 though after being attached to a spammy Chinese porn site for the last two years of it's life. Since then, it hasn't been purchased.

Do I dump it, or is it safe to keep?

Many thanks,

James

Unless your niche is spammy porn, i wouldn't touch that with a 10 foot pole

Cheers guys. Only $10, not the end of the world. My bad for not checking before I bought it. Been away from IM for a couple of years. Need to give my head a shake lol.

Dump it, you can always find better ones.
