Re: [Midnight Marauders] Fw: up for renewal: CHICAGOMIDNIGHTMARAUDERS.ORG

Because Google weights urls very highly in search results and we know it will just be picked up by a content farm. :)

Hey Folks ->

I joined this list to ask a simple question....

A while ago the bikegeeks registered the Internet domain name CHICAGOMIDNIGHTMARAUDERS.ORG for this group.  The intention, at the time, was to build out a small page for any information about the ride.  That never happened.  Currently, the domain forwards to the MM Yahoo! Groups page.

Well, now the domain is expiring.  I'm happy to renew it; but would like for someone to say why it should be renewed.  And, it would be *great* if someone threw in a few ducats to help defray the costs.  (your donation is even tax deductible! :^)

(Below is an email I sent to Martin regarding this....)

thanks,
todd




Hey Martin ->

hope things are going well. 

Hey -- your domain is up for renewal.  You want to renew it?  If so, can the Marauders throw some cash our way?  Right now it just redirects to the Yahoo! Groups page.

a 2-year renewal is about $30, a 5-year renewal is $60. (And I can give you a tax letter for the donation of course).

Lemme' know.

thanks,
t

If you set up a paypal for contribution, i'll pay $5. All you need is 5 more people to pay, and then we can use the domain to stay forwarded to the yahoo group...
