An Important Difference Between Snapnames and Namejet
Namejet.com is, of course, the new domain name drop-catching service that has stolen a lot of business from Snapnames.com. Namejet now gets the domain names that expire on Network Solutions or eNom, while Snapnames picks up expiring domains from dozens of other registrars all over the world, large and small. When I want a domain

I’m Going to Write an e-Book on Domaining
I’ve decided to write an e-book on domaining. True, I started in 2005 which makes me a latecomer to the domain name industry. Also true that I have not made millions of dollars (yet), though I do own upwards of 2,000 domain names that earn good parking income and I have made many good sales.
Nevertheless,

Free Domain Names from Domain Lagoon, and the Question of Advertorials A certain domain name blogger wrote a recent post titled, "Register a FREE domain name!" in which he mentions a service called DomainLagoon.com that gives you points for filling out web surveys, and then allows you to trade those points for a domain name registration. Is his recommendation objective, or is it an "advertorial"?
