When computer technology advances, I don't simply move on. I'm known for keeping old, functioning computer gear for years. In the case of my original laptop – a 2004 Compaq I'll affectionately call "The Brick" – the gear itself hasn't quite gone out of fashion. I recently doubled its RAM to 2 Gb and the...

About 6 months ago, I requested information on dropshipping from Doba's website. I thought the concept of dropshipping was interesting, so I figured why not find out more. 1 month ago, I received a call from Doba asking if I'd still be interested in dropshipping. Just as I remained respectful for that phone call, I

Political group trying to retroactively create and protect brand. One of the many "Tea Party" political groups, Tea Party Patriots, is running into some problems doing retroactive brand management.

A generic, a typo, or neither. The owner of Casino.com has failed to convince a World Intellectual Property Forum panel that it should get the domain name Caisinos.com. The case was filed by Mansion (Gibraltar) Limited of Gibraltar, which claimed that Caisinos.com is merely a typo of its Casino.com domain name. There are a few
Web site builder gaining new users — and new developed sites — every minute. Last month I wrote about DevHub‘s latest web site builder release and noted that the company was adding a social element to building web sites. The social functionality just went live this week, and so far user engagement is up significantly.
Domino's is continuing to push its new pizza recipe with ShowUsYourPizza.com . This is the 3rd domain name / site used so far in the campaign that I am aware of. The past two sites that are still active are PizzaTurnAround.com and PizzaHoldouts.com which I covered before. The newest site allows customers to upload an
I always feel that I report "Sedo" domain name sales but they are also the wise ones that report the sales to the public. In return, Sedo get's a lot of free press because of this. Snapnames, Namejet, Afternic and GoDaddy do not really report it's sales besides to DnJournal.com which offers a weekly domain

There are a lot of doomsday predictions out there about IPv4 address running out soon (there is even a countdown page/iphone app etc.). Whether they are true or not (there are ways to delay the inevitable using NAT etc.) we at Name.com know IPv6 is the future. We always strive to be on
I am writing this post at the Cable Beach Caravan Park in Broome Western Australia, I am here for 7 days with my family on a holiday. Coincidentally yesterday the domain name www.CaravanParks.com.au sold on Drop.com.au for AU$10,100.00 I did not go after the domain myself but I did say to my wife Lois that
In a civil lawsuit filed in the Supreme Court of New York's Allegany County last month, Ceglia vs. Zuckerberg & Facebook, , Paul Ceglia said he signed a contract with Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg in 2003 to develop and design a website called TheFacebook.com (I like the sound of that better). A New York judge's

In our Domain Primer written in 1999, we observed the failures of most web businesses suggesting "As we move into the 21st century, the need for Web sites to create a sense of identity, or belonging, is a challenge facing every business. There is an incredible opportunity to innovate. In a world of look-alike, work-alike and are-alike Web sites, s...
A little over a year ago I quit my what could only be described as a corporate sales job in the telecommunications and mobile space and entered the world of marketing and selling to local businesses in rural Missouri.
In the beginning I was a little concerned about being able to translate the approaches that I had used in the past to generating ne...
I thought now would be a good time to reach-out to all of you, my readers, and ask you one of the most important questions you could ask a Domainer, "How do you sell your domains?" I'm hoping to compile a good list and use this data to better-understand really where the liquidity is in
I picked up what I think is a great name for development yesterday…bookbags[dot]org yesterday. Millions of students looking for these things and I'll be putting an ecommerce thing on this soon. I think dot ors are way undervalued when it comes to selling products. Still a tough flip but does very well in products sales
We all have domains in areas we know absolutely nothing about. Whether it be insurance, medical, toys, or plants I know one place that you can go to find people that can help you find a means to monetize the category…….a tradeshow. Every industry has them and they're not very hard to find. Most likely
I say ‘JohnnyA" because that is the new administrator that is added when you find out that your WordPress site has been hacked.

No sooner did we announce that the cash-strapped University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign considers putting its ultra-generic domain, Tech.com on the market for sale – the vultures rushed in.
