    sales The Estee Lauder Company Acquires .XYZ from Sweetha portfolio

    Correct me if I am wrong because I wasn't in the business when other tlds were being hyped as .com killers. I remember commercials for .TV registrations on TV and I remember other hypes like .biz and .us. xyz seems to be doing what .co and the others couldn't do. Attract end users. If the...

    domains Rick Schwartz announces Q1 portfolio stats

    It sounds like a variation of Muphry's Law which states that any time you call someone out for a grammar or spelling typo, you will invariably make one yourself in your reply. In this case, you might have been trying to call someone stupid while making a stupid mistake? :xf.wink: 🤣😜

    strategy This negotiation turned into successful sale

    @AbdulBasit.com thank you for sharing the post! I am just curious, can you check and see if the domain looks like it has actually been put into use? It has no effect on negotiating but I am curious. :)

    opinion Can't buy DNs here

    I second the bargain bin and not just because I recently posted some $3 domains there but also because I used that to build some street cred here too.

    discuss How much did you start domaining with?

    I've seen so many posts over the years here and on sites for other industries. I don't think I've ever gone into a venture with a fixed amount in mind and maybe that's a bad thing. In the past when I would dabble in new ventures, I would never invest more than I could afford to lose entirely.

    discuss Discuss and Learn: Completed Domain Name Sales

    I have seen the other thread but that one looks like a confused version of what this ought to be. There are people reporting sales in that other thread that I don't think are reporting in the actual thread. We ought to be able to discuss any domain sales to better ourselves even if the seller...

    domains Pallet switches from Pallet.xyz to Pallet.com

    The article says that Pallet was already doing well according to the twitterverse at least. So I wonder why they felt the need to change? I'm of the attitude that I don't want to start a brand unless I've got the .com before I begin, but if I had developed on a non com and it began taking off...

    question How frequently do you adjust prices on your marketplace listings?

    I like to set it and forget it. However, as I sell domains related to others I still own, sometimes I will raise prices. For the minimum price on Afternic, I am testing out a few different strategies and I'm not sure the best route just yet. Some of my names I have a $20-200 min. offer even...

    25 criteria to be a premium domain name in 2022

    #2 means any domain name that has been registered and is not currently available to register and is available to purchase. So even garbage domain names are premium domain names. To "pay a premium" usually means to pay a higher price than normal. But even pricing wouldn't be a requirement as...

    information Epik and your plan

    I didn't move any way either. Most of mine are currently at Dynadot. I've actually transferred a few from GD and Namecheap to Epik. I changed my PW after the hack and I think again a few days later because Epik required everyone to update...or maybe I am remembering wrong?

    discuss .Online Domains - Why 3,634 and counting

    Care to share any of the names? It would be exciting to see some .onlines selling the way .xyz have been moving. Even if they weren't commanding the same prices.

    question What things do I look at before buying an expired domain?

    I've read a few times here and some other places that age is no longer a factor at least for Google with page ranking.

    analysis An Updated Look At Domain Names With Hyphens

    I just found this thread today... here's my thoughts: I wonder if this is because so many people who have terrible handregging choices are told to focus on .com. I've only owned and own a few hyphenated domains myself and I am pretty cautious about which ones I take interest in. So perhaps...

    discuss The Future Of Domain Investing

    I follow the completed sales thread and some days it does seem like there's only a couple of sales while others there are 20 sales. With nearly 1000 pages of posts, we could probably go through and see how many pages were posted for each year. But that wouldn't necessarily show better selling...
