Built up an online empire at Sedo? Used parking earnings to buy a car? Used domains to raise business/personal capital? We'd like to hear from you!As the UK economy takes a down turn, growing numbers of people are turning to the web and the trade of web addresses. Following a successful piece i...

As I was putting the groceries into the trunk of my car today, a nice looking lady in her mid 40’s approached me. She was well-dressed, at least by Florida standards and considering the temperature was in the low 90’s. I thought she wanted some sort of assistance, when she started with &...

Oversee.net is a sprawling Internet advertising company. Its hydra-headed holdings include DomainSponsor, Low.com, and Revenue.net, but of interest to us are two recently-purchased long-time domain name companies not mentioned on their main site: Moniker, Monte Cahn’s pioneering live-auction...

Here's another batch from the Good URL Bad URL Facebook Group. This DIYURL was uploaded by 2-time URL-spotter Olivia McKinsey. Apparently there is a dot-com wrapping around on the side of the car. These guys need to be schooled on the art of URL promotion....

This one comes from the URL-errific Peter Askew. The dubs, dash and dot-tv don't exatcly make this URL jump off the screen....

Here's an Askew anomoly - a Good URL. Of the 13 URLs Peter has submitted to date, only 2 have been good. And we've only agreed on one of them. He thought chick-fil-a.com was bad. I let it fly becuase it's the brand name. Here's another one we disagree on. When Peter uploaded this one to the Good URL...

Mr. Askew returns to form with this submission. Clearly a dud here. I hate the use of apostrophed words in URLs -- just throws people off (especially when the people you're trying to reach are 55+ and largely computer illiterate to begin with.) And spreading these words over 2 lines might lead some ...

Here's one more from the URL-man, URL-myth, URL-legend, Peter Askew. This ad is for Elite Networks that has conveniently shortened its URL to elnetss.com. Thanks guys but no way in el I'm remembering that....

Here's an interesting one. Richard Longhurst runs this company and sent this in thinking I'd blast it but I actually kind of dig it. Creative use of a country TLD and "don't forget the dot" to help those that might overlook it. This URL's got hops....

Saw this coaster at the Houlihan's at 225 N. Michigan in Chicago. That building has a good 10-20 big ad agencies in it so these guys are definitely playing in the lion's den. Methinks they need to come with a little more firepower than this. An all lower case URL with some obscure principal names wi...

And here's an example of when trying to be cute with an URL can backfire. The AlURLt Mark Alves spotted this one and points out it may as well read TheDoctorFor.com since the alternate versions like TheDoctorForSonia.com have been scooped up. This URL should never have been doctored....

Here are two perfect domains for a perfect niche in this politically charged season. Passions are running high on both the democratic and republican sides. I just remembered that I have two relationship domains for the single democrats and single republicans. Here is a link to an old “ABC News...

One thing I do on a regular basis is look over the domain names that are going to auction at any given time and then do a search of my ccTLD's that I have in my portfolio (mainly .co.uk, com.au &......

Between the latest premium domain auction currently underway online at Sedo's GreatDomains and the quartet of live auctions coming up at next week's T.R.A.F.F.I.C. conference in New York, a remarkable number of high quality domain names could change hands over the next seven days....

When I stumble across a domain name I’d like to acquire, I tend to email the owners - to check and see if it might be for sale (obviously).. Oftentimes lately, though, I simply call ‘em up. Grab their ear for a moment and determine whether they wanna sell or not. It seems to speed the pr...

Speaking with various domainers about developing their domain names and it's incredible how many different views their are on what constitutes "development".To me, I would define it as building a web site with a view to performing a business function - for example, promoting goods or services with t...

Research firm Borrell Associates has added their voice to the chorus that believes .com city domain names are superbly positioned to one day succeed local newspapers, radio and TV stations as the preferred media platform in their respective communities....

RedHot.mobi launched a network of 651 US local city .mobi names, covering more than 1000 US local cities. Go to http://abington.mobi/pc/list1.php for the complete list of names. Here are some sample sites: http://ABBEVILLE.MOBI http://ACWORTH.MOBI http://ADELPHI.MOBI...... http://WYNNE.MOBI htt...

I think we have all seen the crappy regs people come up with. Most of us are even victims of crappy regs. Not gonna lie i have had my fair share of crap in my portfolio. I am going to list some tips on what to look for and ask yourself when you go to [...]...

For a number of years now, I've been experimenting with various freelance sites and have tried subcontracting certain elements of my domain development work.Though I am pretty competent with things like XSitePro2 and Dreaweaver, my weak spot is in the area of graphic design.Sometimes, I only need a ...
