Apparently, domain sales at TRAFFIC Dublin weren't that great. Objectively speaking, compared to DomainFest's recent record sales, the TRAFFIC Dublin auction results were pitiful. But really, who cares? While it's important for the conference organizers to make money from auctioning domains, TRAFFIC – or any other conference big or small R...
My presentation at the MeetDomainers show in Manchester this Friday was going to be all about using domain names as niche marketing tools. Sadly, I have had to pull out of that, which is a pity because I was looking forward to meeting some new and not-so-new friends there and I'd begun an experiment last
The new weekly domain sales report is out at DNJournal.com. The top sale ranks among the year's 25 biggest to date. Nine country code domains made the all extension leader board and we also saw one of the year's five biggest non .com gTLD sales this week.

DNS parking may be required in the future. A few days ago Sedo informed its customers that its primary advertising provider (read: Google) may change the way it allows domains to be parked.

These are the kinds of domain name sales that make domain name investing interesting. I have said many times that any domain name can really sell for any price. You may have heard the term, "A domain name is only worth what somebody is willing to pay for it." I think this is one of

August has been a fairly bad month in terms of domain sales for me, as I mentioned before. Thankfully the rest of the year has been (somewhat surprisingly) very good. Maybe it's the summer doldrums, the economic slowdown, or perhaps I am investing more cautiously, which generally yields lower results.
I really shouldn't be complaining though.

If you have ever spent one day in law school you would learn that in the court system, judges are not allowed to hear cases in which they have any type of interest and certainly not in cases involving former clients. However in the UDRP/WIPO world that doesn't seem to be a problem for panelists
The RickLatona.com domain name auction from the TRAFFIC Dublin show just ended with what I'm pretty sure is an all time low for a TRAFFIC show. Just 12 domains sold for a total of 86,820 Euro's or around $110K. Two domains accounted for 85% of the total sales, ShortFilms.com sold for ?58,000 and Italian.net? ?15,400.
I realized in that moment that what is today, what was all your life and you thought would be forever, can be gone tomorrow and in the blink of an eye. Poof, gone as simply and fast as you snap your fingers.As such, I've always lived with the firm mantra that nothing is forever, live for and enjoy the moments, be thankful for each day, thankful fo...

Wow. I love a call-to-action domain that offers a benefit to the reader. And yes this social media, heavily advertised on TV site is sponsored by Colace and Senekot which are owned by yes, the Purdue chicken people.
"I purchased AllWedding.com in 2005, and we have spent the last three years really shoring up that business, overhauling that business, and really getting it to a point where it can almost operate on itself and where it provides enough significant cash flow that we can then take the profits from the business and use that to invest in great domains ...

What's love got to do, got to do with it? As with any domain entrepreneur, I
have lost countless hours and money by being too emotionally attached to a
domain or business idea. This is like betting on potential in a dead end
