Warning from scams to buy your domains and their new style

A word of advice (sure everyone knows that but some people may forget to do it rushing to delete the email). Don't just delete the email. First mark it as spam/phishing and then delete it. That way very soon the scammer must change his address .

Emirates (airline) and .email gTLD

Most domianers usually think that the whole world thinks as they do. For example hypanizing a domain makes it to look ugly. Or a.notcom shows cheapness. Or .email means spam. But for real end users some extentions have real value because of their extra usability. Most digitally uneducated or...

What is the cost to operate a new extension?

The vast majority of buyers are the domainers. This is a fact. But many registries got very greedy. So they are using the so called 'premium' price model for many domain names. They will learn the hard way. After buying a string from ICANN, and if you are already operating many strings, the...

SCAM ALERT!! THE NEW G'S

I find this 3000% a bit misleading. Maybe I m wrong. But I didn t met anywhere a price renewal price to raise x 30. Maybe it is referring for sites that sold for pennies on promotional ( less than a dollar) and now they are asking for thirty USD renewal fee? While increasing the fees without...

advice Keep it or Drop it?

Thank you for your time. I believe that free download is a good combination but the extention sucks. The only goood think is that .TV is considered a gTLD by Google. I am more to drop it but I wish to hear some opinions first. Thank you again for the valuable info.

FreeBSD

There are not much developed on freeBSD compared to main Linux distros. Hosting companies want security, easyness to install,uninstall and configure packages. Debian and redhat are really a much better option for hosting companies. Also, for vps, they use KVM or VZ or Xen. These programs can run...

Hosting with the fastest load time?

It is not the most important factor. But if you want your site to load fast you must own a VPS. They are really really cheap these days. You can do caching a tune your site if you have edit privilages. Also, if we are talking about static pages only you can use plain html, don t use WordPress...
