Question About Forwarding Domain Names

I'm very computer-unfriendly, so I'm hoping some computer whiz will take mercy on my soul and answer a question about domain-name forwarding--specifically, when you are forwarding your domain name to a new server, do you have to erase the two "old" nameservers and type the new ones in the...

Selling Domains Question

Thanks, A.D. I kind of hoped that the "cream-rises-to-the-top" phenomenon was true in domaining, at least to an extent. Your answer was really the one I was looking for.

advice Typo advice to typo newbies

Silly question, Typo Guru, aka Steve, but how do you know which of the bodog typos generates the best response? By the Overture tool? I'm thinking so, but one of the posters to your great piece said that Overture often unravels misspellings. Also, I knew that domain name sellers used to...

Selling Domains Question

I'm guessing that selling one's domain is as difficult as having one's blog read. By this I mean that unless one pays a premium price, his or her domain-for-sale gets lost in zillions of domains for sale. This obstacle seems to be true for domain auctions as well. I say this because I put...

Frequently Asked Question I Bet!

Thanks, all, for the interesting and informative replies. I have a FAQ, Part II: I've been transferring my domains to NameDrive.com (thanks to some suggestions) because it has a counter and offers a pittance at least for clicks.... My question is, does it matter which registrar I choose in...

Frequently Asked Question I Bet!

Since I'm back into domaining, I'd appreciate any and all insight into the cheapest yet reliable way to register a domain name. I've used GoDaddy in the past, but I have a hunch there are other services that are not as pricey. Google forwarded me to a Top 10 list, written by a journalist for...

Hit Me with the Bad News!

First of all, thanks to all who helped me get a handle on domain name matters. As I said, I did sell a name about nine years ago (clickandbet.com), but figured domaining had died with the dotcom bust, so I let a number of my domain names lapse. However, I just read an article about how...

Question About Auctions

Good Domain Names Left Behind A couple of domain names I left behind that come immediately to mind are: 24-7Sex.com (and) Sounds2Go.com There were a number of others; I'll e-mail them to you when they come to mind. I registered them for the ungodly price of $35/per on Register.com, and...

domain DaVri.com?

Hey, I used to teach writing at DeVry, and very few could even spell (of course, DeVry isn't especially interested in turning out best-selling writers), so I figured I'd see if DaVri was available, and it was. So I took it. I also took advantage of Yahoo's $1.99/yr for new customers, so it...

Question About Auctions

Thanks! Thanks, Fonzie, for the valuable insight. You definitely haven't jumped the domain-name shark! By the way, it used to be very complicated to change servers. Has the process become any easier? Thanks, GK, for the suggestions! As I asked Fonzie, is it still complicated to...

Question About Auctions

Thanks for the quick and informative reply! I have another question that perhaps you can answer. I went to the URL of a couple of my domain names, and GoDaddy has ads on the pages directing those who click on the site to URLs that sell products related to my domain names. I'm now assuming...

Question About Auctions

Hi there, I'm a rookie, more or less, to the domain aftermarket field. Actually, before the dotcom bubble burst, I speculated in domain names and even sold one--Clickandbet.com for $2,000. But I thought the downfall of dotcoms included domain name speculating, so I let a number of...
