    How does it feel to lose a 3 letter .COM domain?

    Seriously, could anything be worse? The lucky person who dropcaught it probably sold for 6 to 7 figures. You don't want to get a heart attack from tracking its sale. Anyone else faced that predicament?

    domain Your opinions on the value of Pumapard.com

    I didn't mean to be boastful. As a rookie in this game, I'm learning a thing or two. Sometimes the domain names I think don't make sense at all are the ones I get the best offers for. Example Just 3 months ago I sold a domain for over 4K. That's the domain I almost allowed to expire last year...

    discuss Are domains slowly becoming less important?

    Very true but unfortunately most small businesses are not enlightened enough to think this way. They just go with the grain, Social Media pages and Google business entries. I have done almost evangelical level rescue mission to stop dozens of companies from going this route. For common sensers...

    How does it feel to lose a 3 letter .COM domain?

    Wow! 30 years is a long time to just let a domain expire, let alone a 3-letter one. To second Future Sensors' response above, I would certainly think that owner is demised or incapacitated in some way. Mine wasn't even up to 30 years and I've had nervous breakdowns thinking how much of a fortune...

    domain Your opinions on the value of Pumapard.com

    I didn't even know a brand existed. I just evaluated the popularity of mine over theirs from how many times the word is used all around the internet. Yet they have the balls to set BIN at 35K, the nerve of them. Thanks for the insight

    What are the clear rules of engagement here?

    I'd like to think of myself as a civil participant wherever I go. I follow the rules if they're clear. Mod said it's "Off Topic" but I don't see how. Also I read the terms, I don't see anything on this posting/replying to topics. So, if you see something you can point it out to me here. Thanks

    How does it feel to lose a 3 letter .COM domain?

    Verily. Gas AI is available, others are taken. Vegas AI registered recently for 8 straight years and in the market for a whooping 500K BIN. This domain business is brutal. That ex-owner has some guts to never look back. I would certainly write my last words and jump off a building if I lost that...

    discuss NEWBIE HERE! Did I just waste my money or hit a goldmine? (Domain Investing Help Needed!)

    As a newbie myself who made many mistakes and is also here to learn, here's some advice I wish I had when I started: 1. The market decides, not you. That means you SHOULD NOT buy anything unless/until there's a market for it, Otherwise that will need some aggressive marketing campaign to give...

    What are the clear rules of engagement here?

    I'm not experimenting to figure out how to spam the forum. I'm genuinely interested in meaningful discussions and it sucks when your honest input is flagged for unclear reasons. If I knew the clear triggers, I'd be more cautious in my posts and replies to posts (the words to avoid). But like...

    Oh, right! When I got that notification I thought it was for my main reply to the post. My bad!

    Others also used text formatting and included their domain names. I myself have included domain names on other posts that didn't get flagged. I'm still curious to what triggers this flagging. I'll embark on an experiment. Thanks

    What are the clear rules of engagement here?

    True that... I noticed it was a bot-gen topic but it was interesting anyway so I still responded. I saw others also reply without issues. I even saw a bot-gen contrarian response that wasn't flagged so it's really weird

    GoDaddy's Yahoo feed AFD

    Yahoo is a waste of time. Pull your domain names and park them on your own server. Use affiliate services to make much more money. In my experiment that's the next best option after Google discontinued Adsense for Domain names last year

    Afternic/GODADDY Parking Revenue Dropped to Zero

    The YPN project already failed and Yahoo is now a publisher for Google Adsense. When you see ads on Yahoo News, Yahoo Sports, etc, those are Google Ads. The only reason these Parking services could pay was their partnership with Google. Unfortunately, Google Adsense for domain was retired last...

    What are the clear rules of engagement here?

    Ain't that a rule! This is a domain name forum and we're all domainers here looking to expose our merchandise in one way or another. I see nothing wrong with that except, again, if there are rules clearly stating to not. Most of my replies on other topics in this forum do not mention any...

    Referring to none other than the post reply attached here. It was flagged with the warning immediately I clicked "Post Reply". Then hours later I got that notification (as attached) that it was deleted for being "Off Topic". The impression I got from the hours of delay between the flagging and...
