Fabulous.com is my registrar of choice for .com domains for a number of reasons, but mainly because their control panel is so oriented towards domainers and the company is so domainer-friendly.It was interesting to see today that they've made their wholesale / monetization service "invitation only" and have removed the new account sign-up link from...
Today's post isn't necessarily domain related, but more to do with discounting.The reason for posting this is because I talk to a lot of people in business on a daily basis and to some extent, given the economic climate, they are pretty much all suffering from the same thing - people are asking (and in most cases, getting) discounts on the prices t...
I've just posted a survey on www.saveourjobs.co.uk asking visitors what they'd like to see on the site.Sometimes, on domains that get traffic, it's a good idea to post a quick survey because your visitors will soon tell you what they want or expect to see.The survey questions don't have to be complicated and the answers you receive might just throw...
As domainers, we own virtual assets that have a certain value that is either a sale value or a developed value.Either way, if the domain names are good enough, they are likely to be worth considerably more than they originally cost to register.It's taking a long time for mainstream businesses to to catch on to the value of good domain names, especi...
Congratulations to the parents of the newly born California Octuplets.Finding one domain name still available for your child is bad enough (we do all do that don't we?), but 8? Must be a nightmare. No wonder they've just named them A to H at the moment.I hear the mother will be breastfeeding them all too. Without being too disrespectful, SpanielsEa...

The latest addition to the domain conference line-up, Domainer Mardi Gras, will run for the first time February 19-21 at the Westin Canal Place Hotel in New Orleans. DN Journal's new monthly newsletter details how show organizers plan to stand out in the conference crowd.
Last night I posted the third lesson of the Domaining Power Course on YouTube. In the third lesson I discuss one of the most debated topics in Domaining - Domain Name Appraisal. This is a difficult subject to cover as...
DomainReport.ca - Ron Jackson of DNJournal released the past week's domain sales report, and there were four .ca domain sales listed under country codes. Two of those were already reported in this blog earlier (see below - words.ca and clasificados.ca), and there were two others I didn't know about.The report actually covers the past two week's sa...
DomainReport.ca - I just noticed this .ca sale reported on the Sedo homepage over the weekend.clasificados.ca - $1,500 Euros (about $2,400 Cdn.)It's interesting to see a Spanish word in .ca sell for that amount. Clasificados is the Spanish word for Classifieds.
The Senate Stimulus Bill is being worked out this weekend by members of the Senate. The Senate Stimulus Bill is nearing a Trillion Dollars but appears to be getting trimmed down to about $780 Billion Dollars.
Why isn't the Government starting to use the internet MORE that helped Obama win! He knows the power of it!
I read a thread on a domain forum this evening that really pissed me off. Two people were highly critical of my friend Ron Jackson, and they were downright rude in their criticism. I think that people have the right to be critical of others (and I encourage it sometimes), but the rudeness that was

Most of us would like to have the .Com to start a web business. But nowadays with prices of good .Coms reaching into the stratosphere sometimes we have to go with our second choice and quite often that comes down to the .Org or .Net. So as a prospective site builder which one of these would you go for?
I normally get three types of offers from people writing to me on my domains.
The first is from people who ask me to make the first move, ?What would you sell x for? Are you considering selling X ? what is the price?? I realise that this is a standard negotiating tactic and I will be going into this in a later post. The second is from the chancers ...
Hi everybody, and happy Saturday,
What with beta testing our fabulous new FO and NDX Market, and various other activities which have been taking up my time recently (such as kite-surfing), I almost forgot to do my weekly news roundup, so here it is, complete and unabridged, and only one day late.
Have a great weekend,

Juicy Campus and Gossip
JuicyCampus.com was based on one of the less desirable habits we as humans have: gossip. Gossip sells as any visit to a supermarket checkout will show you. However this web site took gossip to a new level allowing college students to post anonymously about their student life, other students and faculty. They
Morning folks!!How much is a domain really worth? That is the key question in our business and beyond. But first you have to ask yourself some questions. 1. Is your valuation as an asset? 2. Is your valuation as an income producer? 3. Is your valuation as a collectible? 4. Is your valuation as a commodity? 5. Is your valuation for a NEED? 6. Is you...
The title of this post was lifted from Proverbs 22:1 NIV? "A good name is more desirable than great riches…." How true this is with our present economy. We are currently in a recession and every economist knows that to right this economy, the Government will try to infuse some funds into the system which
The sell of of IREIT domains continues over at NameJet.com this week.
What's lost in the story is the fact that this strategy by IREIT to sell their domains in this fashion, all starting at a $69 reserve is that domain names are in fact a Liquid investment.
The debate has raged for quite a while are

What can one do with an idea, a product targeted to a community of common interest, a domain and Google? PrideFlipFlops.com exemplifies one of a million untapped ideas that could be coming soon to an domain name near you. Note: Nothing more to develop here then a landing page and order form.
Like iPhone and me.com without a domain name because MyPhone.com... well... someone's going to make some money if this is successful (unless http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/myphone/myphone.aspx is going to fly). Lord have mercy to those who had the foresight to see the future in 1996. Why wouldn't have that been Microsoft themselves?

Small Business Trends recently published loads of trends for 2009.? This is not my most favorite of sites, and I don't particularly agree with many trends that they predict.? But they do get some right, and it's always smart to check it out and decide for yourself.
