Talk about yaymestarringlondontipton.com which Disney registered without telling anyone, according to a story in the Washington Post earlier this month:
"..Disney registered names like http:/
/ yaymestarringlondontipton.com and http:/ / fenwickssuitmovie.com-- signaling the company's interest in securing sites that could be related to its TV show "The Suite Life with Zack & Cody" and a popular children's book, respectively. Patalano said his biggest scoop came when he discovered the name of Disney's sequel to "National Treasure" -- "National Treasure: Book of Secrets" -- before Disney had announced it, setting his fellow Internet fans abuzz." "....To prevent similar public-relations debacles, companies buy up swaths of negative domain names featuring their trademark. Sprint owns http:/
/ ihatesprint.com, and Capital One owns http:/ / capitaloneisevil.com. Wal-Mart, which has been embroiled in several disputes over sites using its trademark negatively, has registered http:/ / walmartunion.biz and virtually every domain containing the words "child labor" and "Wal-Mart."
But I noticed, not so much the Disney Shows, but how this topic has ignited Google HotTrends today. For example: yay me starring london tipton.com is "On Fire" and peaked at 5PM on December 15th (I wonder what triggered that spike?).
Simerely, www.yaymestarringlondontipton.com also peaked at 5PM while london tipton which was probably triggered by New Site For London Tipton from The Suite Life Of Zack And Cody in Nichole blogs!. Also used terms such as yamestaringlondontipton.com, yaymestaringlondontipton, yeahmestarringlondontipton.com, yay me starring london tipton and yaymelondontipton.com.
Looking at the results and digging in, I suspect much of this result on Google HotTrends to look like manipulation of it since many of the sources quoted are spam blogs.
