Though overall Christmas retail sales were sluggish, online sales were a bright spot this year. comScore reported that Dec. 15th set a new one day record for online sales, crossing $900 million for the first time & easily surpassing the 2nd biggest day on record set on Cyber Monday (Nov. 30).
A plunge in parking revenue this year left domain owners hunting for for new monetization options that might offer better results. The new December newsletter at DNJournal.com takes a look at one new solution devised by two guys from Princeton University. We also have a special year-end letter from the ICA.
Domainers.us, which launched in July of 2009, was created to highlight one influential domainer every month. Each month domain investors nominate fellow domainers for this award. Then, the five nominees are voted on by the public to find a single winner.
With a total of 84 votes, I received 38% (32 votes) of them making me
Finally, my inbox can rest.
Christmas is over. And it couldn't have come too soon for my email inbox. It was inundated with email promotions for holiday gifts.
These emails weren't technically spam. After all, I had ordered gifts from companies such as Harry & David last year, and I gave them permission to
WIPO arbitrator wins 2009 Domain Dunce Award.
Last year I handed out a couple Domain Dunce awards. But there was so much stupidity in the domain name world this year that I have about five to hand out.
The first winner of the 2009 Domain Dunce awards is WIPO arbitrator Andrew F. Christie.
Company files case against owner of marijuana domain names.
Altria Group, the parent company of tobacco company Philip Morris USA, has filed an arbitration proceeding to get the domain names AltriaMarijuana.com and AltriaCannabis.com.
Is the company getting ready for the day pot becomes legal? Perhaps, but the company is probably more concerned ...
DreamHost is not exactly one of the most reliable companies out there but at less than a buck per month ($0.77/month, unlimited domains), it's a great "throwaway hosting" deal. The offer expires today, at 11:59PM PST!

Taco Bell get's you to Think Outside The Bun™ and now they want you to check out there DriveThruDiet.com site which features the new Fresco Menu.
I must admit, when I saw the commercial yesterday, I thought it was a spoof. I have yet to see any fast food style chain going with a weight loss
I haven't talked much about SnapNames.com after all the shill bidding news broke nor have I visited the site all that much either. I guess I wasn't confident in who I would be bidding against and my account has stayed empty for back orders and I have not bid on any auctions.
I was a little
In an article I wrote about Vino.com yesterday, I mentioned that it was a category killer domain name and a couple of people commented that it wasn't. Just like in the National Football League, I am doing an instant replay review, and the call is overturned. Vino.com doesn't really meet the definition of a category

I recently bought a domain name from a company who hadn't touched its domain name since the late 1990s. At the time, they were using Earthlink for Internet service, and the Registrant Contact was listed as Earthlink, while the Administrative Contact was their company contact information. The domain name was registered at Network Solutions, and

A very cool infographic about "A day in the internet". Some amazing statistics I figured a bunch of people will enjoy.
Just goes to show how much we might underestimate the actual reach of the internet, right? It's amazing to know that there is still a LOT more room for internet growth!

I officially dropped T-mobile and the Blackberry yesterday and ported my old number over to my AT&T iPhone. For better or for worse, I am not locked in to the AT&T nightmare of a network (or is it?) and the revolution that is the iPhone.

It's hard to imagine a name that could fit our industry better than Domains.com. I'm sure we've all reached out to the current owners at least once inquiring about it.
Today, I'm proud to announce that I've just secured the brokerage agreement on our own category killer, domains.com.? This is in response to my challenge post...
The New Year is upon us, as 2009 winds down. It is time to evaluate the execution of your goals this year and conclude if they were executed or not. Additionally, it is a time that most people establish new personal and business goals for the new year. 2009 was a tough year for global
""All year, we have been citing WIPO decision for being inconsistent and blatantly unfair to domain holders.
Finally today as a late Christmas present to domainers we finally have a good decision, not only because the panel ruled in favor of the domain holder but because the panel took the time to very methodically discuss when
Ideal use for the dotTV franchise. Bit.ly features the most viral videos being distributed with bit.ly referral links. Another example of a business that didn't exist a year ago and you have to wonder how the portals with all the eyeballs like AOL or Yahoo missed. Guess they can't innovate, only buy companies for big money to take them out of play....
When it comes to conversion rates, SEO, CTR, and everything else to do with optimizing the revenue and traffic to a website we all like to talk about testing variations.
We look at testing landing page layouts, color on adsense ads, various SEO methods and then we analyze and then test again, and again, and again, and again.
That is great, we hav...
Wow, what a difference a year can make. I am just kidding about the title of the post but I have been a major failure at keeping myself in shape this year. I just saw some Christmas pictures from last year while we were looking at some digital pics from this year and all I can say is CRAP!!!
It is time to get my no excuses attitude back towards st...
This is most likely the slowest week in the Domaining world…and for good reason! Most of us were spending time with family and friends and hopefully enjoying a bit of time away from work! That being said, there were some excellent blog posts and while I didn't get to read as much as usual, I
This is kind of a scary post to write, because I'm shamefully behind on developing my portfolio (look for a New Year's Resolution post about that soon!) and I'm sure many people will get a good chuckle out of my purchases and my lack of production with these sites. But this post is for me. To document my results for the year, my feelings at this po...
