Some domainers have been around for years while others are just learning how to spell GoDaddy however it doesn’t matter if you are young or old in this industry, even veterans have made mistakes over the years. Somewhere around 2004 I dropped my .com (alandunn.com) for reasons which still baffle me today. This mistake not [...]

Seriously we could all use one especially with the amount of pointless chatter in this space. Let’s not talk about domain names, SEO, development or another one of Rick Latona’s dumb quotes about the state of the industry. Let’s just focus on how cool these angry birds are!  

Car insurance never stops and 360 Quote LLC has done it again with the purchase of AutoInsurance.org for $440,000. If you remember 360 Quote LLC purchased a number of car insurance domains last year including CarInsuranceComparison.com and a string of GEO related insurance names. Joel Ohman, founder of Domain Superstar, runs 360 Quote LLC and [...]

In my opinion 2010 will go down in history books as the year when many of the world’s best names were acquired at prices never to be seen again. Why? Since almost all of the key purchases this year have been made by developers and end users. This is vastly different than prior years since [...]

It was a simple text link saying “Commercial [...]

I rarely post articles about products to use but earlier today I was told about Scribe SEO and can say for sure this will be some of the best money you ever spend learning and testing your content for SEO quality work. Basically what Scribe SEO does is provide an automated tool for scoring your [...]

I love the original Google Adwords keyword tool but looking up a particular set of keywords yesterday posed a lot of questions about whether or not the data from (a) the original version is dated or (b) the new Adwords version pulls data from a different dataset. Take for example the keywords “auto car insurance” [...]

What a great video to display Google’s evil powers to the world. Too funny .. and if you are a DAD you must watch the second one. DAD’s — Ya, we serious rock with style LOL!!

There are well over 100 conferences annually for online development. Whether it’s the Search Marketing Expos, the Affiliate Summit or something else most domainers still only attend domaining conferences which barely breathe any life into domain name development.
