In this week's Top Topics, we touch on the subject of motivation. With domaining being largely an individualistic venture, how do you keep yourself motivated? Elsewhere, investors are discussing the subject of terminology for landing pages, after Rick Schwartz mentioned that "Price Upon Request" works better than "Make an Offer".
What Do You Do to Keep Motivated?
Domain name investing is typically a solo venture. Whilst there’s often interaction with other domainers either privately or via a forum, you’re ultimately responsible for your own strategy, investments and income from domaining.
Motivation, at times, can be difficult to maintain in domain investing. Even with regular acquisitions and sales, the best investors can lose a certain amount of drive.
Here, an investor asks what keeps you motivated as a domainer. Contribute to this discussion, and help other investors who may be struggling with motivation at the moment.

An All In One Solution for Landing Pages?
With the general fall in revenue from parking, many investors have exclusively switched to using landing pages for their domain names, to easily give potential buyers a way to make an offer or start a conversation.
There are several providers of landing pages, but investor Page Howe has asked for suggestions for a landing page provider that essentially gives a domainer everything they may need in a landing page service. Does such a service exist, or is it a case of creating a custom solution?

What Extension Failed You?
There are hundreds of domain name extensions. The dominance of .COM has been plain to see for a couple of decades, but that hasn’t stopped investors either speculating or investing heavily in other extensions. Even legendary .COM domainer Rick Schwartz paid reportedly $200,000 for Flowers.mobi before selling it for just $6,500.
With that being said, this discussion is all about the stories of extensions, old and new, that failed you.

Price Upon Request
Earlier this week, the aforementioned @Rick Schwartz posted a tweet that created some buzz. Instead of using the term "make an offer", Rick recommended using "price upon request". Efty was quick to offer a "price upon request" landing page.
The terminology has created a debate about best practices for domain inquiries. Will you be trying out the price upon request method to see how it measures up to "make an offer"?
