Who Is the Greatest Domain Investor of All Time? 2021 Edition

Seven years ago, a poll was created asking investors to vote for the greatest domain name investor of all time. Frank Schilling won with 31% of the vote, with Yun Ye in second place.

This time, reflecting the influx of some newly established investors, the roster has changed slightly, but the question remains the same. Who is the greatest domain investor of all time? Cast your vote in this poll.

An Experiment That Didn’t Work!

This week, a domain investor took to Twitter to reveal that between 2018 and 2020, they had invested in two thousand three-letter .IO domains in a failed experiment that led to a $100,000 loss.

This prompted a discussion about experiments with domain investing. Do you often experiment with new registrations, strategies, or tactics as a domain investor?
