Finally GoDaddy auctions to have bidder id’s, do you feel better?

April 10, 2019 by Raymond Hackney 5 Comments

After asking for bidder id’s on Namepros as far back as 2015 and I kept pushing a bunch of times on Namepros and here at TLDinvestors.com, bidder id’s are finally a reality. Now of course you never fully get what you want from GoDaddy. In my opinion that’s always what you get from GoDaddy just […]

Shill bidding, insider information? Maybe it’s time for those bidder id’s

March 28, 2019 by Raymond Hackney 3 Comments

Back in 2017 I wrote that it was time for GoDaddy to initiate bidder id’s. GoDaddy has been against this and Joe Styler has posted on Namepros in the past that they will not do that. We also wrote a post when Paul Nicks stated no plans to add them. Tonight Paul Nicks published a […]

H1Z1 […]

A lot of needless registrations

March 21, 2019 by Raymond Hackney Leave a Comment

I was going through the expired domain names section on Name.com and there was a flood of similar names all expiring at the same time from 2006. They are all related to Hughes Corporation. Now to be fair they are a large corporation and I am sure this is not  big money for them but […]
