Your first site

Hi

If you can remember, what year did you start your first site?

[Bionic_Woman]

A Tomb Raider forum and I started that in 2004. I gave it away and it's still running today.

My first site was a university project

What made you give the forum away Bionic Woman?

£200, that was expensive. Was it an established domain name or was it one that had never been used?

It was such a niche of a forum based around Tomb Raider and it didn't really take off because there are more greater and far better Tomb Raider forums around. I found that the general chat area was the most used of all on the Tomb Raider site and eventually decided to pass it over to the other admin and start a new venture. I spent over 2 and a half years working on it and even got a custom Tomb Raider skin made for it. Here's the link if you want to check it out: http://www.tombraidermanor.co.uk

I very rarely visit there now.

It was just a domain name that has never been used.
