I noticed this week that many of the domains I was watching in the Godaddy expired domains section weren't making it to my closeout lists. They were either getting a single last minute bid or someone was picking them off as soon as they were available for the $11 buy it now price in the

Cases shouldn't be heard if they're this bad. So this guy William (Bill) Robert Johnson forms a company called Aahara Enterprises Pty. He registers the domain aahara.com on October 3, 2011 for his business. But he also wants Ahara.com, and tries to buy it from the owner. The owner's last name is Hara, and the

DomainReport.ca There were a few .ca domain name sales worth reporting in the last week.  Most of these came from the Wednesday TBR and follow-up auctions yesterday.  There was also one .ca that sold at the DomainNameSales.com marketplace. The TBR auction prices are not confirmed sales because I don't know if the buyers will end up paying or not,...

I just ran across this NameJet error page, and I wanted to share it with you. It's the first time I've seen an error page on NameJet and it's pretty humorous. I hope I didn't break the website! Have a great weekend!

Like many other people, I’ve often said “Content Is King” and this is absolutely true, however I think the statement could use a slight modification. I would actually like to change this statement to “Great Content Is King” because lousy content really doesn’t live-up to the title of “King.” With so many Domainers getting-into development

It's funny I discussed about not writing as much as possible to start developing more but what I found myself doing is sleeping more, running more.  I've lot 10 pounds, ran 8 miles at 7:10 pace yesterday and all because I write less.  Who knew. Maybe I'll get going on my blog.  On a side note, I'm becoming a Pinterest flower stud if you want to fol...

It's Friday so here's something fun Performer Reed Grimm is currently competing in the American Idol competition; the 26 year old from Wisconsin will now appear in the Las Vegas eliminations next week.

Mike Mann's at it again; the hyperactive domainer and author of "Make Millions and Make Change" just sold the .com of a popular phrase, at a price that many domainers would consider impossible. The phrase "From rags to riches" returns roughly 3.3 million results in Google and while it's not for everyone, it apparently describes...

Windows 8 has a new logo – and it's back to the roots, if you may. The Windows 8 logo steps away from the rolling "flag" logo that we're used to seeing for several years from Microsoft OS launches.

ICANN has declined to name the people responsible for rejecting .??, the proposed Cyrllic country-code domain for Bulgaria. Security consultant George Todoroff filed a Documentary Information Disclosure Policy request with ICANN a month ago, asking for the names of the six people on the DNS Stability Panel. That's the panel, managed by Interisle Co...

Some details about how ICANN will prioritize new generic top-level domain applications into batches has emerged. The Applicant Guidebook states that gTLD applications will be processed in batches of 500, but all it says about the batching process is that it will not be random. Rather, some form of "secondary timestamp" is proposed. The batching ...
