“Managing the digital enterprise” is an educational site that made me sit back and look at the big picture again. Written by Michael Rappa from North Carolina State University and available for free, the course sweeps through business on the web. Back to business basics For me there is s...

Are all of the domain names registered in your name.. yours? Up until last week, I thought so too! I’m getting ready to move, so I was doing a little local real estate research online.   I typed my own address into the search bar to see if I could find other locally listed property values. ...

What I love most about domain names are they help provide a foundation for creating original material accessible by anyone in the world. No long distance charges, no calling codes – simply type and go. When you create a successful brand the normal move is to spin off other ideas which can generate...

Horror is in.  I mean, it’s never really been out.  But it’s definitely in, now.  And when I say horror, I mean generally dark themes; not just movies.  This includes goth, video games and biggest of them all: Halloween. Every kid loves Halloween.  But historically once they reach t...

A great article was posted by belhass on Nokia’s newest campaign featuring call-to-action domain names in advertising using one of the best ways I’ve seen yet. Check out the full article, video and links here Nokia understands how to bring people to the web for sure and these ads are effecti...

When we came up with the company name Newfound Names it was in part an ode to the province of Newfoundland but also a clear way to define each name we acquire through drops, registrations, private sales etc. Every now and then we will try to post some domains available for registration that simply d...

This post may ruffle some feathers but in “you snooze, you loose” fashion it should be clear that even the most professional domainers are not always doing everything they can to secure their brand.  Each time we launch a project we do our best to secure all 3 extensions (.com, .net and .org) a...

Don't even know where to start with this one, except to say that this URL is spooky. The chances of anyone remembering this one are slim to none. They'd have been better off shrinking it down with TinyURL. TinyURL.com/6eh6ek is probably easier to remember than this http://sites.google.com/site/hallo...

DotSauce has consistently been a source of quality domain industry news, articles, resources, tutorials and so much more over the past 2 years.

Here's another URL that forget to leave it's http at home(page). And she's doing herself no favors with all lower case what with a name like Debbie Bianco and shortening the URL to Deb. debbiebianco.rubloff.com and debbianco.rubloff.com are just too close. At least Deb lost the Dubs....

One misplaced backslash can really cause problems. Now you might be saying, "Who in their right mind would think that the URL is laptopgiving.org/call1-877-70-LAPTOP?" Well, maybe the geniuses behind 1-877-Kars-4-Kids.org. This URL would be much easier to lap up if they slashed the slash....

When you're dealing with an obstructed view billboard, all you can do is make your URL big and bold. In this case, Leading Caps is just what the doctor ordered....

No this is not what you think! It is not another post on how bad things are going in the economy yada yada yada!!! I am in Europe at the moment on my Laptop Nomads Trip and have just spent 10 days......

I'm working in Malta at the moment. It's a great little island with very friendly people and of course, the weather is so much better than at home in England.My wife and kids are coming to join me for a week tomorrow so I'm pretty excited to be seeing them again after a week without them. We'll then...

We all know how scarce donor organs are for transplant. Now a group of researchers at Genentech have found a way to grow the prostate using stem cells from mice. The findings were published in the Oct. 22 online issue of the journal Nature. Growing human organs While a prostate is not an organ in hi...

The AQDN.com domain sales marketplace launched just 2 weeks ago and has already sold many domains because of low reseller pricing and high quality keyword phrases.  These domains have obvious development potential with strong call to action brands. Introducing the AQDN Affiliate Program Just announ...

OK, now that title has probably got your attention. I was reading through the latest issue of Nature Medicine (Nature Medicine 14, 995 (2008) when I saw an article called “Condom ring-tone catches on”. It turns out that the BBC World Service Trust, a charity organization run by the BBC, ...

This week I am launching a new blog to help develop one of the domains I recently registered. ReasonsToWorry.com was inspired by hugely successful apocalypic websites such as LifeAfterTheOilCrash.net and December212012.com , which predict the demise of human civilization as we know it. YES I KNOW, I...

Buying a domain with a website can often be a great investment. There are many domains that are poorly developed but indexed by search engines and available for purchase. The advantages of a search engine indexed website are easily lost upon transfer of ownership. Here are some ways you can preserve...

Domain industry has a lot of different domain conferences these days. So far together we have already seen a couple dozen shows successfully staged by these various conferences. The single biggest challenge facing the domainers in the past few years is the proper monetization and development of ...

One of our most recent projects is to develop a site that features the best literature available to teach people about domaining. Let's face it - domaining is still a brand-new concept and more and more people are becoming intrigued by it every day. At Domainers Library we will provide a central res...

anybody seen this? just ran across on PopURLs.. Domainr Domainr helps you explore the entire domain name space beyond the ubiquitous—and crowded—.com, and .net. Inspired by jish.nu, burri.to and del.icio.us, with apologies to Flickr and a high-five to Dopplr. yes yes, I know Andrew, you hate th...
