Taylor Swift Registers TaylorSwift.porn But May Have Missed TaylorSwiftPorn.com

by

There are at least 50 stories in non-domain publications about Taylor Swift registering two new gTLD domain names TaylorSwift.Porn and TaylorSwift.adult yesterday in the Sunrise period.

However another domain name was registered yesterday which didn’t make any headlines, TaylorSwiftPorn.com.

The domain name was registered yesterday under privacy at Godaddy.com

The domain name TaylorSwiftAdult.com remains unregistered today which leads me to believe it was not the Ms. Swift who registered the domain.

It seems much more likely that TalorSwiftPorn.com was registered by someone reading one of those stories in the non-domainer publications like Billboard and TMZ and went ahead and registered the .com which was available to be registered.

Unlike .porn and .adult domains which are not live yet (except for the ICM Registry who is the operator of .porn and .adult own site), TaylorSwiftPorn.com works right now, and looks to be like a glaring big miss by her and/or her representatives.

Speaking of ICM Registry,  they are also the Registry for .XXX.

If you’re wondering who owns TaylorSwift.xxx, the answer appears to be no one.

TaylorSwift.xxx, that domain was one of thousands that the registry reserved before launching .XXX on its own accord back in 2011, so Taylor didn’t have to buy domain to protect it from being owned by a third-party as I’m guessing TaylorSwiftPorn.com is as of today.

    That’s the problem, you are never gonna get them all, only someone like Taylor Swift would have the extra cash to try !

    Rod, you are correct. The notion of trying to pre-emptively register negative domain names is simply foolish. However, if you charge a huge premium for domain registrations and have a client with an equally huge budget, then scaring them into paying you for a bunch of utterly worthless domains with no real prospect of pre-empting the usual mischief of internet denizens in relation to celebrities, is the way to go.
