4. People grabbing unused URLs.

Some folks actually make their living by doing that, and then selling them to the folks named in them.

Other folks just pay GoDaddy and nothing happens. You'd be amazed at all of the URLs that have been grabbed but that nobody bothered with.

Jeremy Green Eche took a chance and purchased the website HarrisWalz.com for $8.99 in 2020 when then-Sen. Kamala Harris of California was seeking the Democratic nomination for president.

"I just tried to grab her name and all the heartland governors I could think of," he recalled Monday in an interview with The Associated Press.

Four years later, if Harris selects Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, Eche could be looking at a payday. He is willing to sell it — and a slate of over a dozen other Harris websites — for $15,000, he says.
