BettyBlonde.com and Sociology CLEP

Kelly enjoys drawing her Betty Blonde comic strip very much.  Up until yesterday, we only owned the bettyblonde.net domain name.  A couple of days ago I got an email from a guy wanting to sell me the bettyblonde.com domain name for $195.  That was the second time something like that had happened.  I think the previous guy only wanted $95.  That got me to thinking.  I went to my internet service provider and checked to see if bettyblonde.com was available.  It was!  The guys who had written me the letter had not gone to the expense of actually buying the domain name.  They would have done that had I responded to them.  So, I bought it.  Now you can get to Betty Blonde through bettyblonde.com AND bettyblonde.net.  Very cool.  It would have made me quite sad to have to pay $195 or $95, so paying $11.95 was very cool.  Some other ISP’s are a little cheaper, but mine has been so great over the years, I would never think of going anyplace else.  The name of the ISP I use is echristianwebhosting.com.  They have provided highly responsive service, a very flexibile and easy to use control panel, and great prices.  I highly recommend them.

Kelly is scheduled to take her Introduction to Sociology CLEP test today at Johnston Community College.  I will report on the results and any comments Kelly has about how she prepared tomorrow.  She only has one more, Biology, for this year on June 8.  Christian will probably take his Western Civilization test on June 8, too.

  1. Regarding the dot com you got, that’s so cool! Terrible, though, how people are just looking for a fast and not-so-honest way to make money.

    To Kelly — good luck on the test! (I know you’ll do well, but maybe this time there won’t be power outages or anything like that!)

  2. That is very cool. Domain names can be tricky and expensive, and there are many people out there trying to make a buck off selling them to those who want ’em. Glad you got such a great deal on it!

    That’s cool you were able to get the dot com and at a deal! Web addresses really are like real estate, buy and hope someday it will appreciate enough you can sell it for a profit.

  4. Good think that fellow did not go to the trouble of buying the domain.

    Exactly! Or the cost. I thought he had bought it. I am sorry that I am so cynical that I actually checked.

  6. I’d be glad to sell you BryanbeatKenWeightLossDeathMatch.com

    😉
