Many of the readers here are interested in revenue and traffic domains only. This one is for you guys and gals. The name is ude.com. It appears to be getting 600 – 900 visitors per day and generates $17-$25 per day parked. According to Sedo the traffic is 56% North American and 76% type in, [....

“Cool watch, buddy”. That’s what the person in line at Starbucks said to me while I was wearing this Graham Chronofighter Oversize Mark III Watch. I get that all the time being that I’m in the business but this was particularly interesting because I was only wearing this watc...

In the latest DN Journal newsletter we break down 2Q-2010 domain sales results which showed a big jump from the previous quarter as well as from the same quarter in 2009. We also profile an impressive young woman who is doing some great work for a charity that is widely supported by the domain indus...

Since the .CO Registry opened up its gates ten days ago, more than 370,000 .CO domains have been registered. Initial concern over the long-term visibility of .co domains was calmed down by Google’s reassuring statement that .co domains will be given equal treatment among .com, .net, .org and t...

After a post like last weeks’, where I spoke on .ie and their restrictions, you may be thinking that it is too hard to get involved in ccTLD investing. Trust me, I know it’s easier to just stick with .com but I have seen huge rewards from going global. It’s a little harder  to get...

To continue the series on driver’s watches like the Rolex Daytona and Breitling Windrider Chronomat which have been blogged about this week, today we’ll look at the Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch. The “Moonwatch or Moon Watch” is technically called the Omega Speedmaster Professi...

I can tell you from vast experience that outsourcing search engine optimization works. Our team of writers in our luxury watch department has produced nothing short of miracles in the last few months and I’m expanding that team to cover a wider array of developed properties. When dealing with ...

A few months ago I implored Rick Schwartz to consider making TRAFFIC an invitation-only event, once again. That conversation generated quite a bit of feedback and obviously invited opinions for and against the argument. In today’s blog post, Rick stated that his intention of getting domainers ...

A domain name is a terrible thing to waist. Cathie Jung, who is in the Guinness Book of World Records as having “The Smallest Waist on a Living Person” at 15 inches, has won rights to the domain name CathieJung.com. Jung filed an Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act en rem (meanin...

Despite .co’s best efforts, cybersquatters pile on. Washington Business Journal published a story today about companies that didn’t register their .co domain name equivalent, and how cybersquatters snapped up a lot of these domain names. The story is somewhat amusing: Local businesses...

In my last Lowdown post I asked readers to help us identify some people in our massive industry photo archives that I did not have names for. I started the quest with a shot of two lovely ladies. As I expected, our readers came through like champs! En route to getting the IDs I needed I also had an...

Well, technically we’ve been back for a week, but I think we’ve now sufficiently recovered from all the fun that we had in Austin. Between the full days at the conference and the full nights of networking we learned a lot and made a lot of great connections. In fact, the only thing we d...

Breitling sure does an excellent job marketing their watches. I notice more of them out and about around the town than most luxury watches. Perhaps it is because the watches themselves are so noticeable. After one of my guys saw my post on the Rolex Daytona that I had put up on Monday and he pointe...

The only way to spread word of the value of a good domain name is to reach out to the public. There are many industries, businesses and individuals buying domain names daily, yet they are widely ignored by the domaining community. I would like to propose 15 industries that we should pay more attent...

UDRP on the docket for ICANN meeting next week. ICANN’s Board of Directors will again consider its contractual relationships with Uniform domain-name Dispute Resolution Policy providers at its August 5 meeting, as well as consent to post an application from an entity wishing to become a UDRP ...

I was particularly excited about creditcardmachines.com when I saw the agreement come in. I myself have had small businesses with a physical presence and know how expense these things can be. In late August, at T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Dublin we’ll be auctioning off this domain and it is starting in t...
