LOL Friday - Unfortunately Named Websites

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Second Self Virtual Assistance

shockThese are real websites (and completely safe to view at work) that have chosen some pretty unfortunate website names.

http://www.whorepresents.com - Who Represents?  Find out the names of celebrity representation.

http://www.penisland.net - Get your mind out of the gutter.  This is where you go to get customized pens for your business.

http://www.therapistfinder.com - Find a therapist in California at the Therapist Finder website.

http://www.speedofart.com - Speed of Art

At least the Speed of Art website completely embraces its infamacy, with a link to other unfortunately named websites right on its front page.  They're quite proud of it.  Whatever works, I guess.

Wow, did they not proof or ask anyone else's opinion before deciding on those?  Wonder if any were intentional!

I would imagine that they were fully aware of what they were doing when they created these sites. Probably get a few results from people looking for something else entirely!

Heather.. So much for "Spell check".  What happened to taking pride in your work.  I guess it is fortunate for us... we can get a chuckle out of it.  speedofart.. is my favorite.
