I did a 'buy' one in February and I just went through another 'buy' cycle so I have about 20 new sites to get up and running. That's a lot of work! Hi Xel,

Akismet is still mad at you. :(

I’ve been going on a buy/build/buy/build cycle for a while. I did a ‘buy’ one in February and I just went through another ‘buy’ cycle so I have about 20 new sites to get up and running. That’s a lot of work!

Just go to Google and enter <code>site:domainname.com</code> and see if anything comes up. Even if there is a parking page it should show something. If you're lucky, you might also get cached pages. You can also check the whois information for the site and this will often tell you if the site is banned or not. You can also go to the archive.org Wayback machine and view some past pages. This can help too. You can get all this in one shot with the SEOQuake browser plugin. While this won't necessarily capture all bad behavior by a previous site owner it will catch a lot of it.

I am not quite sure to buy a old domain because afraid it could have a bad history or being banned. You have a really good point in above post.
