Here are some domain name sales that Sedo.com domain name aftermarket service is reporting as of early today. Several nice domain name sales with most in the five figure range and the title domain grabbing six figures! TS.com a great two letter domain name attracted the highest amount at $186,000 USD. CI-Network of the UK was

I have been covering the ICE seizures of domain names for a little while now because I see it has a HUGE threat to the domain name industry and domain names in general. Things stepped up a notch the other day with more domain seizures because sites were posting plain text references to sites that

I can never bash a company when they use a catchy domain name in an ad because they are trying. People get tired of seeing the same old, same old all the time and mixing things up with a domain name can be one way to easily change up an ad. One thing I think

If you ask me.. she looks like a plastic doll (aka Manikin)! Is it Barbie® that will be the next GoDaddy .co girl? She is moving in parts of the ad, but I do think a manikin stand in was in place at some point! Is it Barbie? Not likely. This was only 18 seconds, so

I have been following the ICE seized domain names and the list that goes along with the sites / domain names that have been seized. It's getting more crazy!!!! In the past, with all the "seized" domain names, domain name servers were simply changed by ICE and that was pretty much it from what I could

I was browsing some domain name sales and WaterproofPaper.com grabbed my eye for a couple reasons. One, I didn't know there was such a thing and $24,000 was the other reason! Digital Map Store®, LLC is the owner of the domain name Waterproof-Paper.com and has used that domain name since around 2003 selling waterproof printer paper,

Penis.net has changed hands for $11,500 USD sale over at Sedo.com domain name marketplace. This isn't the first penis to change hands in the past year, as Penis.org sold at DomainFEST in 2010 for $11,000 according to DomainGang.com . The buyer of Penis.org was Ms Jello LLC and the buyer of Penis.net is…. Ms Jello

With the up coming Super Bowl and GoDaddy.com's slated two commercial spots for the big game, GoDaddy has sent out a press release to get customers to list domain names for sale using the Premium Listing Service GoDaddy offers. This was a pretty interesting press release IMO, because it shows some forward progress that GoDaddy may

Here is an interesting expired domain name: OnlineJob.net ! Now it is not the most expensive domain or the best domain, but still nice considering the amount of search volume for the matching term. What makes this story a little more interesting is that NameMedia is listed as the "owner" of the domain name when

Sofas.net has attracted a $18,450 USD sales price over at Sedo.com domain name market place. Sofas.net holds a current creation date of  2/12/1999 and was actually registered before that time since the domain name dropped from the registry twice! The domain name is registered with Moniker.com at the time of the sale and used SedoParking.

I guess Generation I Systems! Lending.net expired on 1-16-2011 at Network Solutions and is currently listed in the Pre-Release section at NameJet.com with auction start date of 2-22-2011! So far, 24 bidders have placed the minimum required bid to be in the auction when it starts. If this domain makes it all the way to auction, expect

Yesterday I ran into a new search engine called Blekko.com (I know, pretty crazy name) but they put a focus on what they call "Slash Search". Using slashes with the keywords you enter, easily allow you to not see thing you wish not to. To further beef up your search to get you results that

Coyote.com has been sold at Sedo.com for $65,000 USD. Nice "brandable" domain name, as animal domains seem to always do pretty good when it comes to domain name sales. Coyote.com was owned by SohoGuys.com. The domain name currently resolves to Coyote Logistics, but due to DomainTools.com not showing current owners or name servers… I'm...

I think it's a pretty big deal that GoDaddy is going to run a Super Bowl ad promoting .co domains! I mean, it is the most expensive 30 second ads a company can buy and yet GoDaddy is going to run one for a TLD that not many have heard of? Keep in mind that

The Wisconsin Dental Association has started a new ad campaign and is using a nice catchy domain name that fits the main message of the ad: BabyTeethMatter.com The 30 second ad expresses the importance of good dental care for baby teeth as they are important for early physical, social and emotional development. The WDA did a

Yesterday, LivingSocial.com offered an Amazon.com gift card at 50% off. $20 for $10 and LivingSocial showed just how powerful the internet is, selling 1,301,296 gift card vouchers in 24 hours! The numbers are simply crazy if you ask me! Not only the amount of gift card vouchers sold, think of the amount of traffic LivingSocial.com got

TheLadders.com isn't Walmart, nor Google. They are an internet based company, yet I saw a TV advertisement yesterday and they didn't even include a domain name in the ad? I found it a bit odd that an internet company would advertise with only "saying" the domain in the ad with no visual presentation of the

Pitchmen was pulled from the air only after 3 episodes in late September 2010 with no explanation why. The show happened to stop after a hostage situation at a Discovery building, but that doesn't appear to be why the show suddenly stopped. The episode that didn't make it to air before the plug was pulled, was

I was waiting for some info over at Sedo as I have 2 domains that are in the closing process and was a little surprised I didn't hear anything from them today… until I read in their news section that the U.S. office is closed in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. So if you

I have covered the Candy.com domain name sale and the progression of the site in search engines for well over a year now and for some reason today, I thought I would check and make sure the site continued it's #1 spot in SE's. I was a little bit surprised but it hasn't! Candy.com now ranks at

I have been selling domain names for several years now and I have yet to sell a domain name for five figures! I haven't paid thousands for domain names either, but should I have at least one five figure sale by now? I think I should but it simply hasn't happened yet for me! I

GiftBasket.com, a great generic domain name that just about any domain name investor would love to have as a part of their portfolio! GiftBasket.com, a great domain name to build a business around that can easily bring customers to your door with little to no advertising! GiftBasket.com, a great potential brand! GiftBasket.com, a generic domain nam...

Sometimes selling a domain name is as easy as browsing the Domain Names Wanted sections at popular domain name forum websites! I have used these sections on both NamePros.com and DnForum.com many times and have sold plenty of domain names in the process! The Domain Names Wanted sections are not always going to find you a

Is just listing a domain name with a third party service like Sedo.com, Afternic.com or GoDaddy.com enough to get a sale? Most of the time, NO! From what I have learned… most interested parties will do two things when interested in a domain.. some will do a third. It is not all that likely that somebody

It was nearly a year ago and I had wrote an article on January 15, 2010 about a couple predictions I had about what will be the highest reported domain name sale for 2010 and where it would happen. I used documented history to help with my prediction and it worked out. In last years article,

From time to time I will present several of the best expired domain names that will be going to auction at NameJET.com. All the domain names are currently expired and are domains from Network Solutions. The reason I dig these lists at NSI, is because they are some of the oldest domain names registered and

GoDaddy.com has sponsored a bowl game called "GoDaddy.com Bowl" and Middle Tennessee State University and Miami University of Ohio are the two college football teams to play the game on ESPN at 7 PM CST today (1/6/2011). GoDaddy sponsors a lot of things from NASCAR races, race cars, race car drivers, poker players, singers, INDY races

I made a little oops today over at Sedo and I didn't intend for the situation to turn out as it did. So here is my oops, so you don't have to learn it like I did! I got a $250 offer on SBEI.com from my domains for sale posting I did the other day. It

Lashatone™ has launched a new campaign for their product that enhances eyelashes for a natural appearance of longer and thicker looking lashes. They are offering a risk free 30 day trial with the website  used in the ad that is using the catchy, make sense domain name DreamLashes.com ! Many women dream about having full and

Awhile back I had wrote an article on how to obtain the amount of whois searches that are done for domain names you own, that are registered with GoDaddy.com . I downloaded a list when I first wrote about it and did so again today as I am going to use GoDaddy's Premium Listing service

I haven't checked the list of the ICE Seized Domain list for a little while, since I wasn't around a computer much in the month of December but today when I checked it… it was interesting to see a couple domains added to it with ccTLD domains of Ukraine and Saint Helena! Until now, the TLD's

The World Cup soccer event that will be held in Russia in 2018 is almost 7 years in the future but that didn't stop 3 bidders from fighting for Russia2018.com at a domain name auction at Sedo.com in early December . The bidding process for the 2018 & 2022 World Cup officially began in March 2009
