GoDaddy’s Extra Centmarcusd October 2, 2008 | Comments Off
Now this doesn’t bother me particularly, but I noticed that when registering a few domains yesterday, (October 1), I paid an extra cent for them. $7.49 using a coupon code plus $0.20 Icann fee = $7.69, Godaddy rounded it up to $7.70. I know I should be buying in sterling, being British, (ol... -
EeeLaptop.com Domain for salemarcusd October 2, 2008 | Comments Off
This is an ex-blog domain of mine with PR 2 and parking revenue. It was a blog about the now popular Eee PC by Asus, I bought it 3 or 4 months before the machine went to market and it’s popularity has grown in that time. Go.ogle very helpfully accused me of invalid clicks, (someone else clic... -
More Domaining Toolsmarcusd September 24, 2008 | Comments Off
There seem to be more domain tools appearing by the day, and I say you can’t have too many, just a personal opinion Scott over at TrendDomaining.com has highlighted a couple from Name.com, which I personally find very timely. My attention was drawn to another tool I rather like, which I sp... -
Domain Names in Google Trendsmarcusd August 12, 2008 | Comments Off
I check Google Trends for most search phrases and domaining opportunities and use it as at least one data point when considering whether or not to invest. But I have never actually put the search term ‘domain names’ in until today. Here’s what I saw: It wasn’t what I exp... -

‘Mumpreneurs’ or ‘Mumtrepreneus’ have become quite a phenomenom in the UK in the last few years. It’s a sector of the economy that apparently contributes £4.4bn per year, ($8.8ish) and rising. Naturally it’s the internet which has enabled women with kids to w... -
Yahoo Publisher Network For UK Publishersmarcusd August 4, 2008 | Comments Off
Sorry, but if you searched and found this post because you’re wondering when we UK publishers will have a chance of earning on YPN, you’ll still feel let down. I’m guessing you searched because you needed an alternative to Adsense, since they disabled your account for no reason. ... -
Domain Development Recommended Wordpress Thememarcusd August 1, 2008 | Comments Off
I love Wordpress, I used to just ‘like it a lot’ but the more I use it the more I love it. This blogging platform is not only popular among bloggers, but increasingly so for domainers who want to develop some of their domains; creating pages is as easy as creating posts, combined wit... -
Using StumbleUpon To Promote A Domaining Blogmarcusd July 24, 2008 | Comments Off
How effective is using StumbleUpon to promote a domaining blog? I’m conducting a bit of an experiment to find out. I’ve been using StumbleUpon for well over a year and it’s a great way to find interesting web pages, just by clicking on the Stumble button, (especially in the eveni... -
Godaddy TV Commercial Spotted In The UKmarcusd July 23, 2008 | Comments Off
Yep, last night, 11.15pm UK time. I was preparing some late night snack and had the TV volume down quite low, so I didn’t hear all of it. After some bizarre ad where a man swapped eating porridge for a 37K per year IT job, (74K in dollars), I noticed a familiar logo more commonly seen on my ... -

It’s good to keep an eye on those domains which are closely related to yours, to get some idea as to whether or not the development of them will affect the value of your own domains.
