    Hi Guys,
    I'm new to this forum but a long time fan. I own the name Vulcans.com and am trying to figure out what to do with it. Does anyone have any ideas? Right now I just have it forwarded to a still image of a volcano and scientist. Do you think my domain name can be utilized as a fan website or something like that?

    Thanks!
    Chris

    You won't get rich, and we're probably past peak-value of domain names. I used to own a 4 letter .com - botf.com. "Brotherhood of the Finn" wanted it for a while, then I cocked up and lost it.

    Keep it - if nothing else use it as an email address. I suspect if you out effort into it you could sell email aliases based on it, but under no circumstances let it go.

    Thanks. I've been trying to figure out how to set up and sell email alias for it. Do you know how? If there's interest in having a .Vulcans email that would be a great way to put the name to use for sure.

    You could build a website exploring the culture and language of a fictional species.

    I think a Cool fan site that could also give people their own alias @Vulcans.com name would be great!

    You'd need someone technical who could
    1) run the mail redirect (and other things) service
    2) knows how to take micropayments in bulk - $1 a year sort of costfor Mail for example.

    Dont get greedy though, or do get greedy and knock up quinto's tech team
