interviews Video: Meet The Domain king - Rick Schwartz

[Lox]

With nearly $10 Million invested in meaningful domain names via revenue generated by those domain names since 1995, when few saw the need, the importance, the reason or the value! That Value has been increasing faster than any stock, commodity or land in history. It's digital oceanfront land that's income producing! Rick has a portfolio currently valued in excess of $500 Million.

Too bad,

Viva la Rick Schwartz the DOMAIN KING!

Great interview and data. That overstock info is incredible to know. Overstock paid 350k for o.co and spent a lot of money trying to rebrand to it just to find out that "a good portion of those who sought out the website went to O.com". https://adage.com/article/news/o-overstock-backs-o-change/230983

Everyone should listen to the whole thing, a lot to learn.

Thanks for posting the interview.

I 'Liked' the opening post - I just wish there was a 'BRILLIANT' option to click instead.

 

[DOMAIN ILLUMINATI]

Entertaining interview.

Rick Schwartz, the self styled "domainking" still loves the king - TLD .com although .com is not top.

For the record, I own a domain name which has a higher value than Mr. Schwartz's whole domain name - portfolio and the proof for my claim is that I (publicly post here that I) would not exchange my domain name for his whole domain name - portfolio in case he would ask for an exchange.

Are you drunk again?

 

[DOMAIN ILLUMINATI]

Are you drunk again?

Just because you obviously can't imagine I'm serious doesn't mean I drank * (which *, b. t. w., I never do) and the "again" in your question is an indirect insinuation that I can only reject as false (even if in your case it is just a cheap rhetorical trick).

* in case you mean alcoholic beverages

 

[DOMAIN ILLUMINATI]

Are you drunk again?

And to complete my reply above - it seems you are the one who is drinking ...

That's the spirit

 

[DOMAIN ILLUMINATI]

That's the spirit

Yes, the spirit of thinking .com is top.

 

[Daehler Ralph]

Absolutely Rick is great. Thanks for this great interview.

 

[DOMAIN ILLUMINATI]

My spirit tells me that .com is not top.

My spirit tells me that .com is not top.

Top spelled backwards makes... Maybe I'm onto something here...

 

[DOMAIN ILLUMINATI]

Top spelled backwards makes... Maybe I'm onto something here...

The circumstance that "top" is a synonym for "highest" while "top" backwards makes "pot" which makes "high" (as far as I have heared) which is the base term of the word "highest" (now the circle closes) is definitely remarkable.

However, in that context, I do not recommend to consume cannabis just to "get high", better register the highest domain names.

We see, "top" even makes sense backwards - while .com, on the other hand, is not even a third of a word (com(mercial)) that is not top anyway.

Namepros is as much a place for entertainment as it is for education

Btw, that O.co point was so perfect!

 

[trsaso]

Thanks for share.

 

[DOMAIN ILLUMINATI]

Top spelled backwards makes... Maybe I'm onto something here...

Another point (maybe this was your initial idea) is that "pot" is slang for a big win ("(jack)pot" (BTW in regards to "jackpot" I own "jacktop.top"), so yes, I think you are onto something here ...
