    registries Verisign to increase .com prices

    Here's Verisign (VRSN) on Yahoo Finance https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/VRSN/financials?p=VRSN You can see that their gross profit and net income both increased every year for the last 4 years while their total operating expenses have reduced each year for the last 3 years. So they are already...

    domains Sale ended

    Hi RJ, thanks for creating NamePros :xf.smile: I’ve learned a lot in my short time here. Thanks also for the opportunity to get some of these domains! I realised after seeing this thread that most of the ones I’d shortlisted are yours. You even have one that was registered before I was 1 year...

    domains GoDaddy acquiring Uniregistry's registrar & marketplace, and Name Administration's domain portfolio

    This acquisition shows that GoDaddy knows Uniregistry is good. On a phone call with a GoDaddy rep several months ago, I mentioned that most of my domains are elsewhere and he asked where. I told him they’re mostly at Uniregistry and he asked why and I explained that it’s far easier to manage my...

    Domain Liquidation Platform - Seeking input for new Epik project

    That would be useful to ask for their social handles for that name. Thanks for continuing to add more features to this. From a UX perspective, the "Buy Now" and "Bid Now" buttons have very similar text content. Something like "Buy Now" and "Place Bid" would establish the difference more...

    news Elon Musk just bought stankmemes.com

    What is a meaningless/worthless domain to us can get more traffic than most websites when promoted by someone with millions of active followers (although perhaps not consistently) so exact keywords probably don't matter as much for him. He does have good domains too though such as x.com Still...

    registries Verisign to increase .com prices

    Ask your friends to comment! I asked a non-domainer friend (still a developer) and sent over my comment for him to copy and he did it! Don't forget to tell them that comments close tomorrow.

    debate The fight for .ORG: is it about MONEY or is it about CONTROL?

    I’m quite happy for Rob to promote his projects. They offer real solutions to real problems. If Public Interest Registry is now for-profit, they should re-name to Private Interest Registry.

    debate The fight for .ORG: is it about MONEY or is it about CONTROL?

    If a non-profit that claims to be in the public interest sells out and becomes for-profit, it is no longer in the public interest, it is in the $$$ interest. Also, here is what prices will be if they increase by 10% annually starting from $10. Year Price 1 $10.00 2 $11.00 3...

    poll What price range are most of your domains listed for?

    My mind is blown after seeing that around 55% of people (as of 62 votes) are getting sales either every month or every week (from the thread below). What kind of price range are most of your domains listed for? https://www.namepros.com/threads/how-frequently-do-you-sell-domain-names.1271750/

    discuss Importance of social usernames?

    I’ve experienced twitter thinking my accounts are spam a couple of times. Not for domain investment usernames but because I have so many personal projects each with social accounts. I always sent an appeal and they always approved it in the end because the appeal shows you’re not a robot. I...

    discuss Importance of social usernames?

    How important are social media usernames to you as a domain investor? e.g. Do you check if the matching usernames are taken before buying a domain? If one or more is taken, do you still buy the domain? Do you register usernames for your best domains? or leave that to the end user?
