Half the news these days is about the Ebola virus, a deadly disease that has killed several thousand in Africa.
Despite the negativity that mainstream media attempted to present the owner of Ebola.com with, one thing is certain: people will find ways to turn negative overtones into something useful, or plain fun.
Two such web sites attempt to capitalize on a potential rise in Google searches, for the phrases “Do I have Ebola” and “Do you have Ebola“, by using the exact term, long tail domains DoIHaveEbola.com and DoYouHaveEbola.com respectively.
Rather crafty, yet sick – pardon the pun.
The domains were registered in August and September respectively, and they both returned a resounding “No” to your questions, by means of statistics.
Definitely a novel approach, that differs from the current re-incarnation of Ebola.com.
