Google: Popular Name In Domain Registrations

The building furor over Google’s IPO may have inspired over 400 domain name registrations that included the name “Google” in April and the beginning of May. These domains were not registered by Google.

Gary Price of ResourceShelf published a complete list.

Discuss the spate of Google-named sites in WebProWorld.

These Gmail misspellings are funny and may net someone a few hundred pageviews a day:
gmalegoogle.com
gmialgoogle.com
googlegmial.com
googlehotmail.com

This one is an interesting speculation: googleinstantmessenger.com.

So if you’re interested in how the IPO will proceed try checking in at the googleiposwami.com to get some tips on google-shares.com. Google’s success could lead to a major buyout and the creation of microsoftgoogle.net or Google may make some buys of their own, leading to googleandoverture.com.

Needless to say, I think the whole world’s going a little googlecrazy.com. Is it because of smoking all that googlepot.com?

Interesting article. I think google will end up banning these sites so the only traffic they will get is through direct traffic. That’s if google doesn’t send out a cease and desist.
