Ben geçen sene godaddy den açıkartırma ile prli domainler alıyordum. Bugün uzatmıyacağım prsi 0 olan domainleri kontrol ederken, domaini düşüren eski sahibi aynı isimle bir blog açmış ve bişeyler yazmış. Baya olmuş yazalı fakat yeni farkettim. Domaini hiç kullanmadım çünkü prsi 2 ay sonra 0 olmuştu öyle bırakmıştım kenarda. Ama blogunda bunları yazmış arkadaş .
So, who would ever have thought that anyone would want DawnShears.com? I admit, I manage many domain names but can be a bit lazy when it comes to renewing my own. Since I’m using my name it’s not seemed likely that anyone would want to purchase my domain from under me. And “Dawn Shears” is a pretty unique name.
Seems I was very, very wrong…
I had meant to renew my DawnShears.com domain and it just slipped off my radar, somehow. Well, it seems that somebody in Turkey bought the domain out from under me the very day it went up for renewal. Whaaaa? So, take a look at DawnShears.com, now: www.DawnShears.com and you see a landing page (and where he swiped some of my keywords and actually has my name, there) links to his sites. What is happening is that he is using my keyword traffic on the search engines to drive clicks to his sites.
The part about him using my name, well, that’s infringement but I don’t think there is any easy way for me to do much about that. He’s in Turkey, for one. I did a WHOIS lookup to find his info and here it is:

So, this gives me an email address to contact him. it looks like he purchased the domain name and his hosting from GoDaddy, too, so GoDaddy may be able to help me if he refuses to stop using my name. There is even phone and fax numbers if I wanted to call Turkey.
For now, I sent an email out requesting that he provide a link to my new site if he was going to use my name in his site content. Otherwise, kindly remove my name from your site text.
Stay tuned…I’ll let you know if anything happens.
