    Bidding on your own names at NameJet...?

    Hey, I just wanted to give an update on my end. I had a conversation with Andrew Rosener and we talked about the situation and why it's so convoluted and frustrating for all parties involved. I made accusations that I shouldn't have, and I would like to publicly retract them and apologize for...

    I'm actually the guy that bought that! So I can confirm that price at 2k. I have to note though, that the sale was before Michael Cyger put out his guide to emoji domains and then had the interview with Matan and Jon Roig on DomainSherpa, so the prices were much lower then, they all seemed to...

    Bidding on your own names at NameJet...?

    I did say things that I shouldn't have. That's why I'm coming back here to issue an apology. The entire situation is very confusing, we are working to untangle the issues at hand. I feel like I've added some to the confusion by making the accusations that I have, so I wanted to make amends. It...

    The key players in emoji domains and the current status

    I like this thread, I will tell you some of the secret history of emoji domains. First though, a little necessary backstory. While I had been interested in domain investing for years, it wasn't until I scored video.game at the very first moment of availability, that I really started taking...

    The key players in emoji domains and the current status

    While I haven't had much of a presence here, EmojiName.com is actually half owned by myself, Steven Glick, and my business partner John Harrison. I actually started purchasing emoji domains just before this past NamesCon, where Matan met Michael Cyger, which helped to kick off the emoji domain...

    Check out this article that just popped up on CNN: http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/29/design/emoji-digital-language/ Some key quotes: "Emojis have become, without a doubt, a design classic. But how effective are they as a communication tool? Over 6 billion emojis are sent on a daily basis, with...

    Exactly, conversions means customers, which means profits. This is actually one of the reasons why I bought the bank emoji domain when it popped up on the aftermarket, I knew it was a going to be a winner! Even though it was a $X,XXX buy in an unproven market, I could see it being a very...

    I know that godaddy works with them (since they made that tool and all), but I've also seen emoji domains in use at name.com, can't comment on any other hosting sites unfortunately.

    Not mine, was made by Jon Roig, who made "❤️❤️❤️.ws" aka "i❤️.ws", link about the creation: https://twitter.com/Emoji_Domains/status/876616972024152065 I've actually been looking around myself, seeing whats been in use, and there is actually a surprising number of things, with a few very clever...

    I'm excited to see what you have coming up. I've been a big fan of emoji domains, thanks again for the interview; I just wish you had more time to talk about it in more depth, Cyger should have you back on!!

    news Emoji could soon take over domain names | CNET

    Yes, absolutely. This is one of the few names that we absolutely not let go cheaply, this one has the potential to change a company. We're actually working on a special internal report with which we are going to try to directly sell the name, but I can give a few interesting points to think...

    Thanks man, yeah, I was pretty shocked to see it open when I checked. At the time, I was running through all of the gold terms I could find. 24karat.gold was already taken, but I kind of like 24k.gold better anyway, it's nice and short. Have you bought any .gold? or are you considering it?

    That's strange. It seems I have it in my Uniregistry account, I checked the renewal price there and it says its about $109/y to renew. What registry did you try that quoted you at $1k? that seems crazy

    Some I will end up dropping, I picked up some at full registration price (mostly all of the really good ones) and then some I also picked up while there was a $5 sale for them. I'm not sure what the end price of these will be, but I see a long term potential for the jewelry related and...

    .de and legal restrictions for site content?

    Hey Kate, thank you for the detailed reply. As much as I do like this domain hack, I might not end up using it for this purpose then, if I have to jump through so many extra hoops and expose myself legally in different ways. I'll keep looking into it, but your response is a good jumping off...
