i.Me how high will it go ?

June 15, 2017 by Raymond Hackney 4 Comments

I saw i.me hit the auction blocks on GoDaddy auctions a couple days ago. Already at $7,300. The domain is 7 years old and looks to be being sold by the registry itself. Odd that it’s classified as expiring auction instead of public or some other designation. Bid Date Bid Expires Bidder Bid Amount 2017/06/14 […]

Are more domainers a good or bad thing?

June 12, 2017 by Raymond Hackney 12 Comments

Interesting question posed today on Namepros that brought me back to a conversation from last week. Last week a long time domainer who I had not spoken to or texted with in months, texted, “There are just too many people in this business.” I replied, I think there are more coming, he replied back with […]

Frank Schilling clarifies his thoughts on latest .xyz promotion

May 31, 2017 by Raymond Hackney 4 Comments

After Konstantinos wrote a very good post on the latest .xyz promotional email from Uniregistry, it seems Frank Schilling took the time to send a follow up email. I think this was a smart move on Frank’s part as some might have read the first email as a solicitation. I wonder if it’s wise to […]

May 30, 2017 by Raymond Hackney Leave a Comment

There was some discussion last month about GoDaddy auctions and Ebates. As many know ebates allows members to receive cash back from their selected partners. Most companies have some exceptions.

Are you disappointed with the state of domaining ? There is a member on Namepros that posted the following: Hi All, I just had this thing on my mind and feel I had to rant. There are so many domainers out here who have grossly overvalued their domains. They are very highly unlikely to sell […]
