Expired .com domains in travel and leisure

From 2011 to 2024, the domain was consistently used as a travel blog (“D-DA5241” / “Travelling Tips”). In 2025, the niche abruptly shifted to Chinese gambling/betting (“押球app官方在线入口-押球（中国）”), which does not match the accumulated link profile.

Originally a personal blog by a single mother about parenting, travel, and finances (2008-2018). In 2019, the site was hijacked and turned into a spam portal with Chinese gambling (casino) content, and then repeatedly switched to other spam topics and parking pages.

From 2016 to mid-2025, a stable restaurant and gastronomy site for the MPM Dining Privilege loyalty program of the Marco Polo Ortigas Manila hotel. Since October 2025, the niche has sharply shifted to Chinese gambling/betting (page titles like «五大联赛压球-五大联赛（中国）」).

The domain was initially likely used for a taxi/tourism service in Madurai (2017), then abandoned (empty page titles, redirects), and in 2025–2026 repurposed into a Chinese gambling site («华体会平台»).

The domain was used as a travel and nature blog (D-3A5915) from October 2024 to April 2025. Before and after this period, there was no content (empty page titles), which points to an extremely short lifespan of the site in a single niche with no development history.

Originally (2004-2011) the site was dedicated to travel packages to Mexico (Cancun, Los Cabos). Since 2019 the niche shifted to a travel news blog, and in 2024 the site turned into a Chinese gambling spam page.

Originally a site about a French castle (2007-2015), then a brief period with an "essai" placeholder (2016), after which it resumed as a castle site for receptions and seminars (2018-2023). Final niche before the drop — a Chinese online casino/betting (2024-2025).

Initially, judging by the name (D-CE9343 — likely an Indian toponym or spiritual center), the domain may have belonged to a project in the tourism/nature/religion niche. Since 2025, there has been a sharp shift to Chinese gambling/casino sites (page titles "hth网页版在线登录入口" and "三亿网页版-三亿sanyi（中国）"). Before that, for nearly 10 years, the domain almost constantly served 301 redirects (mostly to the www version), which makes it impossible to reliably determine the actual content during those years.

Originally (2014–2021) the domain was a stable Indonesian site about tourism and hotels in Yogyakarta (title: “D-1D0D3D dotcom INFO WISATA DAN HOTEL DI JOGJA”). After the domain expired in 2021 and was re-registered in 2022, the niche switched to Chinese casino/lottery and gambling resources (快三购彩, 米兰平台, 乐玩电子) and remained that way until 2025.

The domain started as a legitimate hotel site in Cesenatico (2009-2012, stable niche). Since 2017, there has been a series of abrupt changes: wedding venues (2017-2018), then blank pages, parking (2023), and finally — Chinese content (2025). The link profile was built around the original hotel niche, and the current niche is completely irrelevant.

Originally a Turkish water treatment company site (Arsimak Arıtma Sistemleri), then a long period of parking/blank pages, followed by a sharp pivot to a travel blog with the page title "Best Travel Destinations in World For Couples."

Originally (2004–2014) the domain was used as a website for a hotel network in Sri Lanka. After a long period of inactivity (2014–2025), the niche drastically changed to an Italian online casino (Winspark).

Originally (2010-2014) the site was dedicated to the North Captiva Island Club (travel niche). After a long period of redirects (2015-2024), the domain recovered in 2025 as a Chinese-language online casino spam site.

Based on the name, the domain was originally tied to tourism in Liguria, but the Wayback Machine has no live content snapshots on that topic. From 2019 to 2022, it sat on a 'Combinario - Datacenter' parking page, and since 2025, it has hosted a Chinese gambling site, '拼搏在线首页-拼搏(中国)'.

Originally (2002-2004), based on the page title, the domain was related to invitations or travel to the US. After a long gap (2004-2016), the site was either empty or parked. The final niche before the drop was a Chinese cryptocurrency wallet (Bitpie), which is a radical shift and a typical sign of a dropped domain being taken over for a spam network.

Consistent niche throughout its entire history (2011-2022) — the website of the Super 8 hotel in Brainerd (Baxter), Minnesota. No niche change recorded.

Originally (2009–2011) — a travel/timeshare landing page about Welk Resorts hotels and timeshare presentations in Cabo San Lucas; from 2012 to 2017 — periodic 301 redirects and empty/problematic snapshots; in 2025 — a live site with Chinese gambling content (乐投平台), i.e., a radical niche shift from travel/hospitality to casino/betting.

From 2013 to 2024, the domain was consistently used for a site about travel and photography in Vietnam (page title "Photos of Vietnam taken during a tour to Vietnam"). In 2025–2026, the niche drastically shifted to a Chinese gambling resource (J9 casino).

Originally the site of a Greek hotel (2013–2016, tourism niche), after a long period of inactivity and a series of redirects (2017–2019) it was repurposed into a Thai-language blog, which by 2023–2025 turned into an affiliate platform for the Ufabet online casino. The final gambling niche is completely at odds with the original link profile (tourism/hotel).

The site started as a placeholder, then from 2013 to 2016 it developed as a hotel chain website (D-C199D6) in Jakarta. From 2016 until the drop, the domain was in a state of constant 301/302 redirect.
