In recognition of the 15th anniversary of general availability of the .me domain extension, I thought it was a good time to look at the performance, use and sales record for the extension. The registry has a 15th Anniversary promotion on – you can read about the anniversary in a blog post on...

Without reported domain name sales, we would all be operating in a blind fashion. This article covers the arguments for and against reporting domain name sales, as well as how to report domain name sales at the main venues. Why Report Domain Name Sales? Over the years there have been many...

For me the biggest concern is that commission at Dan goes from 9% (I don't use their integrated with Afternic) to 25% commission for names not pointed at one of Dan, Afternic or Uniregistry. There are good reasons that we sometimes don't want to use a D, A, U lander for some names. I don't...

I'm waiting for the check to clear. While I frequently comment on a variety of legal matters in my spare time, I'm not on call to comment on all or most legal disputes in the industry. Most of these things hinge on "facts" which may or may not be as reported, and usually involve a review of...

Wow! Thanks for the lengthy and thorough response! I think the big question here is whether or not a registrar can pluck a domain out of an account based on their own findings? As Brad said, epik was only able to remove the domain because they had internal access. If Brad moved this to another...

I’m definitely not worried about thumbs down but you certainly made some decent points

If it was overrated, we wouldn’t be discussing it ... I also want you to know I didn’t give you a thumbs down, Does .xyz have a lot of hype ... yes it does and it should, Daniel Negari seems to have some high friends in high places and after being absent in the industry he has made some major...
