Each year thousands of .ie domains are registered and hundreds of domains are also deleted. But these dead .ie domains don’t just fade away, they are immortalised with their own place on the web; the ie Domain Registery deleted domain list.
To honour our fallen brethren here are some of our favourite (and some of the strangest) deleted .ie domains.

@padmaher It really is hard: we were lucky to get sociable.co but to be fair tunethetv.ie is a great name and has solid SEO value - its definitely better than catsforcash.ie (We'd love to know what that site was)
