Until about a week ago, I had never knew that the city of Maywood Park, Oregon (750 people located in a small part of East Portland) existed. When I first heard of it, I immediately checked to see if the domain had been taken…and since it hadn’t, I took it.
Another reminder as you learn new facts and ideas to train your mind to check if a relevant domain name is available…and to grab it if you can.

Dude. My fiancee and I went for a walk around there. It’s actually sort of a surreal place… the history of it is quite interesting.
Nice domain grab… I should really do something with http://www.seohellyeah.com...
Did you really buy https://seohellyeah.com ? Tell Ben he needs to “update” the company name to this :.)
Seriously, database driven domainers likely have sucked up all the city/state names with a population above “x”…the small size of Maywood Park likely caused it to be missed.
