As a domain developer, I have tried to concentrate my efforts on building my sites with the aim of selling services that I can complete myself, or act as a sales agent, facilitating a sale rather than just providing a sales lead. There's a huge difference, which is why I command much higher commissions than
Just when you thought the show schedule couldn't get any more crowded, here comes August and the busiest domain conference month ever! Five major conferences are scheduled between the U.S. and Europe and all of those events will be shoe horned into a period of just two weeks in the latter half of the month!
A battle for foodies. Online food delivery portal GrubHub.com has lost a domain name dispute against the owner of HubGrub.com, with a National Arbitration Forum panelist finding against GrubHub.com on all counts. It's an interesting case for a few reasons. First, it points out there might be confusion of word order when you use a
Domain won't be pigeon-holed to just Colombia in search engine's eyes. One of the concerns registrant's of .co domain names have voiced is if Google will treat the domain as specific to Colombia instead of a generic, international domain name. This is a valid concern given that country code domain names are the top factor
Court says registrars can't get away with gross negligence just because it's in their TOS. Domain name registrars, take note: you can't just claim no responsibility for your actions in your terms of service and expect a court to uphold it. That's exactly what Register.com tried to do in a lawsuit brought by Baidu. If
Relaunch was successful, but hard work remains. It comes as little surprise to me, but it's now apparent that the .co launch has been successful. As of now, 279,000 .co domain names have been registered. I calculate gross sales of about $19 million to date. There are a number of reasons I'm not surprised by
How was it for you? For me, I'm coming from a standpoint of constructive feedback based on an assessment of RISK. People appreciate that. Why? Because its not "blind faith", which is what we have seen from many people (aside from greed). It's easy for people to be critical about .co – after all, they

When I first started domaining I would have called myself a "flipper". I bought and sold A LOT of domain names. I pretty much started with very little money and dug out domain names that made sense to me and that I could purchase at a fair amount. It took a lot of time to
I've been excited about this for the past few days, and I needed to make sure a few things were in place before announcing it. After reviewing my Founder's Program application for a web development project, the .CO Registry has awarded my company the geographic domain name Bahamas.CO. I love the Bahamas and I plan

Greetings from France.? I?m a US centric guy so I never thought I?d be writing from France, let alone gushing about how enjoyable it is to be among the French people in the summer.? They really have a great panache and a style and it?s neat to hang out where everyone tries hard to be
Let?s do another article while I am stuck waiting to speak with a client overseas. I have always insisted that any domainer serious about development quit reading domaining blogs and spend more time reading SEO blogs so why not give you some homework.

In the luxury watch world its usually the men's watches that stand apart. This Van Cleef & Arpels diamond studded watch is a notable exception. The photos on our site don't fully do it justice.

Morning Folks! Yesterday I exchanged emails with a small group. A successful group. Guys I have known for a while and we are all a bit controversial to say the very least. We began talking about the new folks that are struggling and what was really going on with them. I think we came to the immediate conclusion that it was not domain related. It wa...
I just ended the week long poll I was running on which domain you thought would sell at the The live domain name auction at Domainfest which will be held in New York on August 18th of those domain names with a reserve price range $100K-$250K . "None will Sell" got the most votes, about
I just got a note from Sedo.com that the domain name E.Co, which was just purchased for $81K in June, is back up for sale with a new price tag of $500K. After the successful launch of the .CO registry and the sale of O.CO to Overstock.com for $350K, the owners are looking for what

Via Michael C Ruppert:lease pay very close attention to Tropical Storm Bonnie and its projected path. With counter-clockwise rotaion its projected course at NOAA is the absolute worst-possible scenario.

Whenever a new ccTLD opens its gates to the general public, versus keeping the TLD restricted, an interesting type of domains come into play. We're talking of course about domain hacks. The combination of keyword plus TLD that forms a single word or phrase – that's the definition of a domain hack. More rarely, domains
Quite a few odd posts this past week from domain bloggers. Maybe it's because of the hot days of summer; people let loose. It all started when Elliot Silver invited all domainers to a virtual Friday happy hour, asking them what is their favorite beer. A lot of comments on that one; perhaps Elliot should
