PorLaPuta.com, a domain registered in 2005, inexplicably expired and dropped off. “Por la puta” roughly translates as “fucking” (for emphasis) in Spanish, as in ” ¡Pagué 20 dólares por la puta Internet!” 😀
What happened to the domain?
Registered with donweb, a domain registrar focusing in Latin America, the domain was in the possession of a Chilean registrant. For almost 17 years the domain seeded meme images, videos, and odd news to its followers.
Whether there was a lapse to renew or some other kind of unexpected issue, the domain’s social media accounts, such as Twitter and Facebook, were active mere days ago.
So who caught the domain PorLaPuta.com?
None other than DropCatch, where it was auctioned off among several bidders. The winner of the auction, DropCatch account holder “Dropper,” will take home a domain with many backlinks and associated traffic. The auction closed at $601 dollars.
Por la puta DropCatch! 😀
