Do all of your AdSense sites have a privacy policy?

Because they should! Just a helpful reminder.

Pending domain snapped up?

If you really need the domain and cannot take a chance of someone else getting it, then backorder with Snapnames, Namejet, or Pool. But if it is an average name, there's a good chance no one else is backordering it. In which case you are wasting over fifty dollars by backordering it. In this...

Please appraise 3 adult .ca domains

I think they are nice keywords, but (being a Canadian) and having developed on .ca once before, it is definitely the last time I develop on .ca domain. I won't appraise but I like the hosting one the best.

domain Please Appraise BookCas(.)es, DVDCas(.)es

I'm sorry, I really don't like these. Domain hacks are mostly for link shortening for obvious reasons, such as no_url_shorteners The goal is a short and memorable domain, nothing else. Here you basically have a misspelled English keyword in a non-English cctld. Ranking well with these domains even with a...

domain What is better - Whiskey or Best Whiskey? :)

Based on what Im seeing in Google adwords keyword tool this domain is quite valuable. There are 14,800 searches for 'best whiskey' and many more for related terms like 'best scotch whiskey' unfortunately it cant be monetized with google adsense because its alcohol related, but theres other ways...

Facebook files 21 domain name complaints

TechCrunch is only going to increase traffic to DomainMarket.com like that. Maybe Mike still gets a few sales from the visitors :) But seriously people. While cybersquatting gives domainers a bad rep, do you actually think that if domainers only reg'd generics, numeric, and keyword match...

Who is the top domain blog ?

I think its definitely possible to go overboard with ads, if they take up 50% of the site or more, or they are really big and flashing it can sometimes be annoying to the user. I dont think Elliots Blog is overboard though. Mostly they are distinctly separated from the content so the site is...

Death Blow to Minisite-Makers .... what now?

The future for minisites is dire. Search engines can tell whether a lot of hard work has gone into a site or not. Its very easy for their spiders to pick out the minisites now capitalizing on their keyword domains. Secondly, if its a minisite and there is one or at most two folders to the whole...

Snapnames keeps the best domains for themselves

If Snapnames really wants an expired domain for themselves, can't they just renew it for their own portfolio? And with that removing it from the pre-release. I want to know if this is against the rules or just "being bad" :)

Snapnames keeps the best domains for themselves

Why would Snapnames want to do this though? Dont you think they want domains to go to auction so they make money and stay liquid? I guess I can see the logic though. They might be waiting for a more high profile auction where they could make more. A better question is because the domain...

Google May Lower Rankings of Keyword Domains

I dont think this makes domains anymore irrelevant, its still your address on the web and everyone wants a good one. It will just bring the value down of keyword and generic domains (which will be good if you wanted a premium domain but could not afford one, but will be bad for those currently...

NameJet Price Drop!

Well, I guess this puts them just a bit cheaper than Pool now and $10 cheaper than Snapnames. Hopefully there's a continued downward trend in drop catching prices but I really doubt that happens.

Does Google use Whois info for ranking?

The only variable I think they might consider is domain age which would come from the whois. Other than that, Google's algorithm purportedly considers more than 200 different variables, so its weight to SERPs is likely negligible.

Need some tips

I'm not sure exactly what you mean. On our expiring domains list we have an option to search for domains containing the keyword, and containing the keyword at the front of the domain and the back of the domain. Other than that you'll have to sift through the results to find the good ones (or...
