    Domain is registered but not operated

    There is a belief that if you have it resolving nowhere, you aren't infringing on a trademark and wouldn't have to worry about WIPO UDRP. But if I recall, there have been cases where the domain did not resolve and yet there was still a domain dispute. You also don't need a website to have...

    question Any tips for buying 4L.com domains?

    $500 for 10 names, $5000 for 100 names plus any lotto hits in between when someone suddenly needs the acronym for Xavier's bussin' skibidy rizz, which will be 2029's new version of Craigslist! Looks like someone is asking 15k for that acronym. Maybe they know an Xavier already!

    Domain Name Value Estimator

    I used it to appraise PEGH dot com before I read this thread. After getting the first appraisal of 10k-50k and reading the paragraphs, I hit regenerate and was surprised that the value was now 10-25k and so I regenerated again and this time it was 5k-25k. As others have said, the range...

    information TruthSocial.com was bought for $2000 by Trump

    Can he abuse his power next year and acquire T.com or force those reserved domains to be auctioned off.

    question Are 4L.com domains the key to success?

    Yikes! That's a very simplified statement. If the OP overpays for a 4L because they are difficult to value, it's not as safe as you'd think. Unless buying for 2k and selling for 200 is safe liquidity.

    Did you just grab it? If so congrats! Edit: I just looked at Dynadot and I see it is a premium and available. Maybe porkbun is bugged.

    discuss TIL Namesilo Expired Domains Appear For Sale on Namecheap auctions

    I have noticed that most of the domains I watch on Namesilo end up being renewed. I feel like probably two-thirds at least. Perhaps it's just the names I choose to watch or perhaps Namesilo puts them up for auction way too early.

    discuss TIL Namesilo Expired Domains Appear For Sale on Namecheap auctions

    I know Dynadot and Porkbun are also sharing domain auctions. Does anyone know which other companies are also sharing?

    discuss Seller beware: DAN took my domain without paying

    This is interesting to read though I am sorry it is happening and that there's a mystery behind it. My mind wonders if it was the same buyer? Did it look like the same buyer's name? Even if it didn't, it could be someone using two accounts to commit fraud. Perhaps there IP address was in the...

    question How do you decide which domains to renew/drop?

    I have a few things. If I have invested hundreds of dollars into purchasing a domain, I will likely renew it until I'm dead. For handregs and cheap acquisitions, I do consider things like traffic. I don't understand why a domain I registered on a whim last month has 50 visitors according to...

    discuss Timely Domains? - Display and explain

    I have only ever tried outbounding for a few domains. I definitely need to make more of an effort to do so as I know it can work for certain domains. I was actually trying to set up a white label marketplace using my domains on Atom and was planning to have part of it set up for outbounding...

    advice 20 years old domain with no use

    ahh ok, I thought you meant someone could alter the MX records of your domain while you own it and then use that to steal it from you.

    discuss Timely Domains? - Display and explain

    In the last 12 months, 29 clicks and 0 revenue. I've owned it for a few years and it might have been parked with Afternic parking for 6-12 months as well. I don't recall it being anything special as far as parking revenue goes.

    Intersting. PafiBali.org redirects to a gambling page and PafiMelawi.org also has a landing page for gambling though translation seems to suggest Thailand... "For those of you who want to play telkomsel deposit slots, of course, you must look for a thailand server slot site that provides 10...

    discuss Timely Domains? - Display and explain

    Do you mean royalty free images like from Unsplash or another one of those sites? I think that's great but I'd be reluctant to use those on a larger campaign like U.S. Senate, a state governor or something at the presidental level only because the sites offering free images claim we can use...

    news How domain registrars have increased .com prices

    It was the Amazon strategy, lose money or barely break even for years to gain market share and grow. I can't tell you how many .99 .coms I registered through GoDaddy over the years. At least 100 before they started limiting coupons. And those limits appeared sometime after a 2.3 billion...

    GoDaddy VIP Account Executives

    I've got a GoDaddy rep too. He just called me up one day and I was afraid it was going to end up being some sort of sales call but it wasn't. He has called a couple of times to let me know when their namefinder? namefind? auctions were coming up as there were a few that fit my niche interests...

    question Would anyone Have (or could get) this list: All .com domains registered in 2 or more extensions

    I think Dotdb does sell that. Sounds like an easy cash cow. Pretty much any website with some level of success will eventually decide to get the matching .com so if you had a list to swoop in and wait.
