I have been really keen to build up EnglandWide.com into a substantial England portal. So, much of my time over the last few weeks has been devoted to thinking a little ‘out of the box’ to try and develop something a little different. Currently exploring a few ideas including:-
blogging about UK tourist resorts
UK visitors social networking site
Travel forum
Not particlulary new – still thinking though 
Not sure how to progress and I will write up what I have decided shortly, hopefully.
Geodomain development – Ive been working hard on developing the network. Nine sites, so far. Decided on a basic template – and plan to take things from there. Everything connected to www.EnglandWide.com. Plan to make that site into an England travel and tourist blog. In the meantime its just a basic site. Plan to develop around 150 geo domain websites. After that I’ll start on the generics. Lots to do, so little time.
I have made an important decision – NO MORE DOMAINING! Well at least thats the plan. Now its development time! With a portfollio of over 500 domains I need to start building sites. Even single pages would be better than parking pages. Lots of thoughts about how to progress. http://www.LiverpoolWide.com and http://www.BristolWide.com are online with a single article each. Enough to get a little interest from Google, so its a start at least.
Hoping to develop about half of my portfolio over the next 18 months. Probably want to concentrate on a small number of geos and then work out from there.
So that means no domaining – for the moment. But I don’t think my domaining days are over, but a transition from domainer to domainer developer.
