GoDaddy Airo commercials are on my tv all the time

February 28, 2024 by Raymond Hackney Leave a Comment

GoDaddy Airo commercials have been on my tv all day today. From watching FS1 to Paramount Network, I hear the ad at least two to three times an hour. For so many non domain investors, GoDaddy = Domain Names. So I think it’s nice to see a GoDaddy ad that actually mentions domain names where […]

SouthDakota.net expires

February 9, 2024 by Raymond Hackney Leave a Comment

Now last year it was allowed to expire before being renewed and closed for $1,000 less. Each auction took […]

GoDaddy topped $60M at Namebio for the first time ever in 2023

January 19, 2024 by Raymond Hackney 1 Comment

Looking back at the past 4 years of GoDaddy sales data, 2023 topped them all. Even though there were approximately 3,000 less sales in 2023 vs 2022, dollar volume was up a little over $4M. The other interesting tidbit for me was they only had 3 six figure reported transactions, last time that happened was […]

NatalieCole.com expires again and this time it’s not renewed

September 30, 2023 by Raymond Hackney Leave a Comment

Again this year it was left to expire, it closed at$10,752. It should have been renewed for 10 years in my opinion. It looks like this time it did not get renewed […]
