| Selling Ad Space
In the past few weeks I have been contacted by several upstart and established domain industry bloggers to advertise MiniSites.com on their site. The prices ranged from $x to high $xxx per month. This got me thinking… how are they coming up with these prices? I have a feeling that several are taking what they

| Comparing Mini Site Providers
I just wanted to discuss Mike Cohen’s most recent post, where he “compares” mini site development services. He claims DomainMassDevelopment.com has great on-site SEO, while all other providers offer “weak” SEO or have none at all. I decided to take a look at every example site he posted to see how good h...

| Open Letter to the “King”
Well, since my comment hasn’t made it through the moderation queue on Rick’s latest blog post about mini sites, and it seems like it isn’t going to make it through because many comments have been approved after mine, I guess I need to post it here. It all started with Rick getting his Adsense account

| AWStats for All Domains
I came across a limitation of AWStats today that, much to my surprise, has not really been addressed effectively. For those of you that have cPanel and AWStats installed on your server, and host multiple domains on the same box, you may have noticed this too. The way you normally see your AWStats is to

I recently figured out a cool trick to create your own vanity name servers. I’m going to walk you through the process using my own domain, DNMedia.com, which is hosted at HostGator. This is what my name servers currently look like:
