opinion Open Letter To Pro Domainers on NamePros
Domaining is difficult. Businesses regardless of background or industry or financial backing need dot-com, so you need to know what’s going on outside of your comfort zone. Nobody knows everything, so we need to be receptive of what others say. I think it’s rude to provide unsolicited comment...- Points: 8

question How many domains need minimum for a domainer?
Depends on your skill level and how much money you can afford “losing”. You can acquire domains via auction or direct from domain owners, you can catch dropped domains, and you can do hand registration. You should probably start slow and be willing to sell at price lower than what experienced...- Points: 5

Atom / Atom.com - Marketplace (formerly Squadhelp)
Brandables are very subjective, that we can agree. Your customers have strange taste of brandables, and if we do a survey with many people, that will be a likely conclusion. Lastly, it does NOT matter. I went through a bunch of winners in the past. Over 80% of the domains are parked or...- Points: 5

Trademarks are application specific. When you register a trademark, you need to specify what good or service it relates to. For example, “Lyft” was registered mark for services related to health and to entertainment before the ride sharing company came along. So a trademark does not preclude...- Points: 4

@gblasting You are correct that you are targeted because you visited SH before. It’s called re-marketing, and SH is doing it incorrectly. When you do re-marketing, you need to do it at low frequency so to nudge visitors to return without annoying them. Right now I am haunted by SH and one other...- Points: 3

Trademark question
What’s the issue with “billing”? It has been stated clearly that legal matter needs to be discussed confidentially. A problem is you cannot discuss trademark here or on Legal StackExchange fully.

news Futuristic - The Domains Industry Is Asleep

discuss Your reg. of the day
With US trademark law, when you apply for a trademark, you have to specify the service or goods for the trademark. Lyft, for example, is trademarked for transportation service and for lifting equipment by two separate companies. Trademarks are also country specific. So, even if “crikey” is...- Points: 3

advice Have you ever Tried cold calling
When I first got the offer, I was like the majority of the people -- we don't know anything about domaining. I did know about WHOIS, though (most people don't). I was tracking that particular domain, and I knew it had expired. So here's why I didn't bother replying the direct offer (assuming it...- Points: 3

domains Why So Many Entrepreneurs Hoard Secret Stashes of Domain Names
Great article. If you listen to what domainers think in DimainSherpa, you would hear similar thing. When they acquire a domain, they envision what business can build on top of it. Also, many of them have some domains that they want to develop, even though most ideas don’t come to fruition.- Points: 2

opinion Does the industry need another auction place?
I don’t like the idea. Another auction site means another hoop I have to jump through to get myself verified to participate in an auction. It also means another auction site to watch for. It’s more important to build a platform buyers want than one sellers want.- Points: 2
