We have successfully launched our domain forum today. We are still tweaking a few things, but the domain board is looking good and ready to go. Please sign up and test drive this new domaining community. You also have the chance to define the spirit of the forum. We have created quite a few sub foru...

We are aiming to announce details of our Blockbuster Domaining Contest on Wednesday, March 4th. We will be sending the details out to prospective sponsors over the weekend. Sponsors will be rewarded with a dedicated blog post about their website/products/services. Your links will also be permanent, ...

I really did use to enjoy reading Ron Jackson’s report on the results of domain auctions at major domain conferences. It was really inspiring to see the top quality domains changing hands at life-changing figures. Now, I barely track domain auction results. I have lost interest. Domain auctions ha...

We really don’t know if the pretty woman on our eBusinessDomains.com homepage did us any favours or not. Perhaps she helped us to secure some domain sales, or she did a better job at distracting our clients. Well, regardless or what she did, our relationship is about to come to an end. We will be ...

We will be launching the eBusinessDomains.com Blockbuster Domaining Contest soon, perhaps as soon as March 1st. We will be offering some great prizes, and it won’t cost you anything to participate. It will be loads of fun! If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, please contact me at Kevin [at...

Job losses are unavoidable in the reality of the current economic climate. More and more companies are advising of layoffs, and with these layoffs, government will earn less revenue. This points to the magnitude of the challenge affecting us, so it is important to prepare. What people need is a map,...

It seems a bit too true, but in this domaining world anything is possible. There is a domainer that is making a killing, in what seems to be a domain niche that no one seemed to have paid any attention to for years. This sort of daily income is normally reserved for the top expert Internet [...]...

I recently stumbled across a UK House of Lords debate while flicking through television channels 2 weeks ago, and had to pause, as I heard the speaker mention the word “Twitter.” These debates are normally unbearably boring, but I was quite surprised to see these senior (rather, old) people spea...

Businesses around the world are experiencing a remarkable change in everyday business. This is not just due to the economic recession or any credit crunch. This change started a long time ago. This remarkable change is just simply unnoticeable. The current economic woes are making even smaller busin...

We have been kept busy with a few of our development projects over the past few weeks. We are in the process of rolling out some great features here at eBusinessDomains.com. In the past few weeks we have also been kept busy dealing with domain enquiries and sales. Despite a recession and economic do...

In the foreign exchange market, it is not uncommon for people to trade and make a tonne of money (or make huge losses) trading currencies (money) that either does literally does not exist, or change hands. It is like investing real money to play a virtual game with real life consequences. These virt...

There has been a recent significant increase in the interest for Country Code Top Level Domains (ccTLD’s) in the past few weeks. A lot of blogs have been featuring the pros and cons of ccTLD’s. This was inevitable, as we have had 2 recent significant developments concerning ccTLD’s, with Godad...

If you are a late night browser, or live on the Eastern side of the globe (where it was early morning) then you may have noticed that our website was temporarily down late night Wednesday night (US Time). This was a planned upgrade of our website as we were transferring our website to new servers, a...

I once read where someone said domain names are like their children. You get sentimental and attached to them. I do not have any kids as yet. So, I cannot connect with that statement on a personal level, but I can sort of imagine what it feels like. What I would like to point out here is [...]...

It is estimated that a third of all registered domains are owned by domain speculators. These are people who register domains with the hope of selling them later for huge profits. Have you ever wondered who will buy your domain name, and what they will do with it? Chances are, if you can narrow down...

A new day has begun in American politics. The world watched as the first black man was sworn in as the President of the United States of America. President Barack Obama taking office for many, is like seeing a dream come true (Dr Martin Luther King). It was just simply historic. This is a day for ev...

I am not a big fan of most domain extensions other than the dot COM, NET, CO.UK and TV extensions. However, as I have stated in previous blog posts, there are some Country Code Top Level Domains (ccTLDs) that have very great potential. China has been booming, and will be booming for the foreseeable ...

I want to quickly express my gratitude to all those who have so kindly tested and provided feedback on our newly installed auction platform. We have already made quite a few changes, and we are currently making a few adjustments and improvements. The test domain auction for Went.tv closes today at 1...

We have now begun to integrate the new platform and features that we announced later last year. Users can now sign-up for accounts at eBusinessDomains.com from our homepage, or via this link: http://www.ebusinessdomains.com/usercp.htm Current newsletter subscribers ARE ALREADY members. They just sim...

One of the predictions that I made for 2009 was the increased focus on domain development and mini sites. Developing a website for a domain name is always a good thing, as that is really what domains should be used for. But how does one know when to develop a mini site? I treat my domaining efforts ...

Online branding starts with a quality domain name. End-users/companies are not necessarily more concerned about using a domain name to generate more sales, but rather using domain names as part of their branding strategy. The main objective of any company is to maximise shareholders’ wealth. ...

Fellow domainer Patrick, AKA Chef Patrick has rebranded his website and blog, changing the name from DNKitchen.com to ChefPatrick.com. Of course if you are a fan of his domain cartoon strips like I am, then you would have most likely visited his blog in the past. Patrick has cited that the rebrandin...

If you are planning on launching an ebusiness niche website, it will be vital for you to buy a niche domain name. A lot of planning and decision-making will be involved in the design and development of an ebusiness niche website. You will have to decide what type of site to build, how content will m...

For the Chinese it was the year of the Rat, and the year they hosted one of the best Olympics ever. In domaining, China has seen significant growth in its ccTLD, the dot CN. This emerging superpower is pulling out all the stops to be dominant in almost every sector. As for the Western world, Gordon ...

I had intended for my last blog post for 2008 to be a detailed analysis of Domaining in 2008. Unfortunately, I am running a bit late for the fireworks and New Year Eve’s celebrations in Central London later. Secondly, I would not want to be late picking up my beautiful date. Wouldn’t forgive mys...
