I already own welshview.co.uk, awelshview.co.uk and awelshview.com which all point to xo.typepad.com but don't own welshview.com. The reason for that is because it is owned by Fabulous Domains which bulk buy domains and then try and sell them on with a huge markup.
When they first bought welshview.com, it was on sale for $450 and gradually climbed to around $1200. Recently it has dropped to $650 but with a saving of around 50% there's no chance that I would even consider buying it. They can keep it.
To be honest, I'm used to quoting xo.typepad.com when I tell someone about my blog and I use it on my email signature.
Out of interest, if you don't bookmark my site or Google it, which address do you use?
xo.typepad.com all the way! :D

www.awelshview.com- It's the name of the place- easy enough to remember. Honestly, if ya get misdirected, it's made for googling already. No need to purchase more.

I use xo.typepad.com
I didn't even know you owned awelshview.[whatever]
I think its faster to type the xo one and its also pretty easy to remember

Since you're in my feedreader, I don't really need to remember the exact url. But xo.typepad.com is not that hard to remember, and I can always search for the title.

Bob, I recently spend six weeks in China and while there I wanted to check in on your blog. I typed in www.welshview.com and got the notice that your website was up for sale. I was pissed because your blog is the only one I ever visit. Thankfully, when I got back home I found that you are still in business. Thank you and please keep up the great work.
