May 12, 2021 by Raymond Hackney 4 Comments

Domaining really is like a lot of other businesses, the haves and the have nots. In a conversation with another domainer yesterday, they told me they did not agree. “Raymond everyone is sitting on valuable domains, they just need the right timing for a big payday.” That is a nice sentiment and some would say […]

April 29, 2021 by Raymond Hackney Leave a Comment

“Do you think I would tell my old man this is what I do for a living?”

April 23, 2021 by Raymond Hackney 21 Comments

When it comes to Domain Investing, do you tell people you buy and sell domain names or is their shame in the game? This post grew out of three interactions. Interactions that are unrelated in every way. A couple years ago I realized I had an unpublished interview with a gentleman I had known for […]

lnvitation.com debacle highlights why marketplaces must show upper and lower case

April 16, 2021 by Raymond Hackney 4 Comments

So Lox over at Namepros started a thread about lnvitation.com (that a lower case L not a capital i) The name closed at $20,156. Members were a bit miffed and wondered why there was no upper and lower case designation at Dynadot. Some wondered if the auction got paid for? I asked Dynadot who in […]

Not everyone tunes into your favorite outlet – Where do you get your news and views?

March 8, 2021 by Raymond Hackney 6 Comments

Domain News and Views One thing I see over and over for years, is the belief by some that everyone tunes in to where they tune in. I remember one time someone asking me why Michael Berkens did not reply to a post about someone questioning a sale of his on Namepros? I told him […]

There can be many reasons that name you want to see developed is not developed

February 24, 2021 by Raymond Hackney 2 Comments

One thing I get all the time in emails and sometimes in phone calls, is outrage that a domain name sale was announced and that domain name is not developed. This is kind of what brought about the Offthehandle/Kate Buckley debacle. (Offthehandle has not been heard from since he was doxxed on Twitter). Over the […]
