Quick, Profitable Domain Flipping Strategy We all want to buy a domain one day, and sell it for double the profit the next. But that really isn’t very realistic to be able to find buyers that quickly, the very next day, that are willing to pay the price you are looking to get. So I have a method that I

Dumb Domain: Xoom.com I was watching the Fox Sports channel with my brother, and I saw an ad for Xoom.com, a global money transfer service. While their demographic targeting was smart (we were watching a soccer match), the domain name doesn’t pass the tv or radio test. Apparently, “xoom” is pronounced, “zoom,” so the announce...

Risky Business Domaining is truly risky business. One never knows if the domain they reg today is going to be worth double tomorrow, or half the next day. Even with researching keywords, looking at trends, there is never one %100 sure-fire way to ensure your domain is going to be profitable by just having a domain. As

Will Microsoft Finally Buy Yahoo, Part 2 In January we wrote a post asking “Will Microsoft Finally Buy Yahoo”.
The following week Microsoft made a $31 a share offer for Yahoo while Yahoo shares were trading at $21.
Of course as we all know this lead to several months of negotiation, after which Microsoft simply walked away from the deal.
On Friday Yahoo closed a...

Government.net on Sedo Auction - 18 Hours Left As the time of Sedo’s Government.net auction continues to decrease, the price continues to increase. Currently, with 19 hours left, the auction is at $20,100. This is a very interesting domain considering the unbelievable keyword, although the downside being that it’s a .net domain. I would say the keyword “Governme...

thelongestlistofthelongeststuffatthelongestdomainnameatlonglast.com Nathan White sent this one in via the Good URL Bad URL Facebook Group. I like how this URL pokes fun at itself. Reminds me of RRRRThats5Rs.com. And alternating the font color makes sure all those words don't get lost. This URL goes to great lengths to be memorable.

Hackers accusing the Saudi-owned TV of being pro-Sunni shut down the channel’s news website in a cyber attack, claiming to be in retaliation for the recent attacks on Shiite websites.

www.myspace.com/wwwmyspacecomfireinthedawn Here's another one from the Facebook group. Brian Wyrick gets off the URL schnide with this entry. At first I thought it was a typo but this is actually the band's MySpace URL. I knew it was getting tougher and tougher to get a good MySpace domain but I didn't realize the pickings had become this slim. They should rename their band ...

You can add another 17% or so to get the value in Canadian dollars, with the recent slide our dollar has taken. I remember seeing bad.ca offered for sale at dnforum.com from time to time, it is a nice three letter word domain to own. The ...

FOX.COM/TERMINATOR/RAM Fellow URL-aholic Robert Fitzgerald spotted this too-hot-for-TV URL. The double slash is truly the kiss of death. A while back I posted a print ad from Sony with the URL www.sony.com/sonycard/hd. I didn't like that one either but at least it had a chance because people could take the ad with them to the computer and type it in. This...

While I'm glad these guys didn't use Kaleidoscope in the URL -- that's one nasty word -- they didn't do themselves any favors by tacking on the IM version of "to" and "paint." Don't know anything about their biz but from the name it seems like painting is only part of their capabilities so not ...

Maybe one of the many domainers that keeps tab on this blog can weigh in and explain what the .com.au is all about. Is that real...
