Have domain prices really dropped that much! There's certainly opportunity, but where? As I skim through the forums I see quite a lot of threads from people new to this business titled: I have $10,000 to spend on domains what should I invest in now?
Of course there is lots of advice thrown around (quite a lot of it is very good), LLL.com's are cheap now, only invest in one word premiums, .Net is the way to go....

Are Parked Domain Names Just Another Exit? This is the first in a series of flowcharts to describe how domains are currently monetized, and how they could be monetized.

Does the above make sense to you? Is ...

Have You Checked Out ExpiringDomains.com? Yesterday, I published an article titled 'There Are No Secrets In The Domain Industry', which has so far received a few interesting comments.
If there was or is any secret in the domain industry as such, then it would be to do with expiring domain names.
Almost every domainer will eventually hear the name Yun Ye. This

Your Domains Should Be Bookmarked in Your Brain After eight days straight of being under the camera eye, I gotta say it's been a wild ride so far. I've met hundreds of people that I never would have met if not for this experiment. The conversations have been mostly intriguing, at times mind expanding, and every now and then, a little mundane. So in the spirit of the American holid...

An attack on the world and immoral domainers I am horrified by the cruelty and brutality of the terrorist attacks on Mumbai. What is wrong with this world? Why are humans killing each other in such horrendous ways? What are they trying to prove by attacking a hospital, opening fire on ill, defenceless people? I can’t find the words to explain how hurt

Tricking the Consumer: A look at MFA's Let’s face it, some domainers and webmasters are tricksters. Or at least persuaders. We try to persuade consumers to buy our product, click on our banners and ads.
So why do I consider this tricking the consumer? Because when someone writes an MFA site, or just a nice content site, they usually want to make a

goarmy.com/for_parents URL-aholic Ron Patrick spied this traitorous URL. I like the fact that the URL backs up the ad speaking directly to parents but methinks Parents.GoArmy.com would work much better. This URL loses the battle with the slash and the war with the underscore.
