It’s obvious that choosing a proper domain name for a website has a big role in the process of gaining popularity.So it’s worthy to spend sometime looking for a nice and easy domain before registering it cause it’s gonna be the website’s brand.
Grupthink user’s have made a list of domains which can easily be mispronounced into really ridiculous phrases.Some of the domains in the list do not exist anymore, but here is a list of top ten such domains which are currently active.I don’t know whether their owners knew the alternative pronunciation before registering the domain or not!
Speedofart.com
Do you think choosing such a domain name will help them swim faster?!
Apetit.com
The website is not in English.They probably offer food products, but I don’t think anyone who speaks English would buy food packs labeled “Ape Tit”!
Butthatsnotall.co.nz
“Butt-hat” + “Snot-all” ?! OMG, that domain name sucks!
Cummingfirst.com
Don’t tell me this domain belongs to a Methodisit Church! Would you believe it?!
Mofo.com
Morrison & Foerster legal firm or mother…. firm?
Mp3shits.com
Probably this website is the most famous one among the list and the owners knew what they had chosen as their domain name.I like this one!
Nagiosexchange.com
Nagios is an open source host, service and network monitoring program,but it seems that they also “change the sexuality” behind the scenes!
Penisland.net
This website sells custom made pens on the internet.It’s not the land of ….!
Programmerstools.com
Where do you think a programmer may stools?!
Therapistfinder.com
The website offers searching for therapists in California, but don’t you think the police would be interested in such a domain name?!

Beyond hilarious — and it never get old!
I will admit, I’ve seen most of the names on this list several times previously. There is definitely something to be said for the free publicity that comes with owning a name such as those listed above. If you’re creative enough and marketing on a low budget, owning a name with a duplicate meaning can be a tremendous form of exposure.
thats really funny..especially the Penis-Land and SpeedO- fart…….
Where were their heads chosing these domain names?

nice motto in the penisland.net one - “your penis our business!”
Crazy as some of them may be, I’d love to own one. Just look how much they’re talked about and laughed at.

@fatlester: you’re right, but you still have to market it wisely (as you say, if you’re creative enough)
this is so hilarious lol… my personal favourite is therapistfinder… haha cracks me up so much!
expertsexchange.com anyone?
Haha, what really made this article golden was the witty commentary. Cracked me up even more. Great stuff.
I remember the first time I saw travelocity.com… “Travelo” is slang for “transvestite” in Spain, so I was afraid about where it was going to send me.
Funny stuff
