[size=15pt]See them trying to convince Ferguson to come rescue them. Shame shame shame! Sir Alex Ferguson statement: "I'm not interested in managing again or getting myself worked up about Manchester United's results. "You would be throwing your money down the drain if you put any money on me coming back as a manager. I made my decision. The timing was perfect. "There is no way back for me now. I've got a new life. I want to go to the Kentucky Derby and the US Masters, the Melbourne Cup. I want to visit vineyards in Tuscany and France." Sir Alex Ferguson -LOL-[/size] 1 Like |

[size=18pt]3 Ways To Find End-User Buyers For Your Domain Names [/size] One lesson that I learned big-time last year is that when it comes to end-users, it really is all about .COM. I have found that I get exponentially more responses for .COM names vs. any other TLD because this is what most end-users know, love, and want. So if you’re looking for end-user buyers for your domains, below are three ways to get started: Google – this is the #1 way that I sold domains to end-users last year. Do a Google search for the keywords in your domain and see who is advertising for these exact terms. If companies are willing to pay good money to rank well for the exact terms in your domain name, there’s a chance they’d be interested in owning the domain and saving some money on advertising. Estibot Lead Generation Tool – this is one of the coolest tools out there for finding end-user leads and I’ve made some solid sales through leads I found using this tool. It is incredibly easy to use, just enter your domain and Estibot will recommend potential buyers. Domain Broker – there are a few domain brokers that specialize in selling domains to end-users. Of course your names will have to be up to snuff in order for them to take them on, but if you have good names brokers can help you move them. I highly recommend Domain Advisors, Toby Clements, and Andrew Rosner, all do an excellent job, but remember you’ll need to have really solid domains. 1 Like |

[size=20pt]INVESTING IN QUALITY BRANDABLE DOMAIN NAMES[/size] I’m usually touting the benefits of keyword domain names in many articles. In this post I’d like to analyze another common domain name type, brandables. A brandable domain is often thought of as a short, made-up word such as Google or Twitter, however this isn’t always the norm. There are different types of brandable domains, even those that do use keywords, so let’s dive in and see what they are all about. First, a quick word on why a quality brand is important. A recent study shared by eConsultancy found that just 3% of traffic to eCommerce websites comes from social media, while a staggering 46% comes from brand familiarity. Your domain is your brand. Brand familiarity boosts web traffic [size=15pt]Brandable: What You Don’t Need to Worry About Keywords[/size] For once, you can throw Google AdWords keyword data out the window–well, almost. You may still be interested in targeting a specific keyword to be a part of your brand name, particularly if you will be using a two-word domain as a keyword/brand-word combination. You can now create your own words successfully if you follow a few guidelines featured below. [size=15pt]Definitions[/size] The language of the internet evolves much faster than Merriam Webster can keep up. Your brand does not neccisarily need to have a known definition. I decided to name my Twitter forum community “TweetSocial.com” 3 years before it was included in the Oxford Dictionary as a new word for 2011. [size=15pt]What Makes a Domain Brandable?[/size] Pronunciation How a domain name is spoken aloud is one of the most important factors in determining brandability. Often called the “radio test,” you can simply ask a few friends to spell out a domain name over the phone or in person. If your domain name can not be understood clearly and remembered through word-of-mouth marketing that will hurt your brandability. Length While many brands use three-words I recommend first researching two-word options. When it comes to the internet, shorter is always better. I would estimate the majority of valuable brandable domain sales are between 4 and 6 characters. Virtually all four-letter domains and quality, pronounceable five-letter domains have been claimed, so you’ll need to browse the aftermarket for extremely short brands. Meaning Not to be confused with a definition, meaning lends some since of relation to a particular product, service or industry. “DotSauce” is a play on hot sauce, but the dot connects the publication with all things Internet. Use an industry term, relevant word, idea, color, or some other identifier that the target audience will associate with. Appeal When looking for brandable domains to potentially resell, you’ll want to make sure that you have meaning, as described above, but you also want to be sure that there is a possibility that the domain will actually sell. I’ve shared some tips for picking domains that have selling potential in the past. It helps to get into the mind of an entrepreneur working in a particular industry; would they find this domain a viable or premium option to build their business on versus a keyword or longer domain? Discriptors Some words are simply great or must-haves for certain industries which can make it hard to find suitable brand options. If you’re looking to go the discovery route, you may find the Bust-A-Name tool with built in thesaurus very helpful for finding related words and descriptors for your brand names. Pull out a sheet of paper and take a few minutes to jot down any quality keywords that may describe your area of interest. You can then plug those keywords into Bust-A-Name along with the other root word you would also like included to see what is available. Detractors Now that you know what elements contribute to a great brand, there are a few things you definitely want to consider avoiding when selecting quality brandable domains. Doubled up letters (‘SportSShop,’ ‘KinGGames’) – Domains like this do not do well with the “radio test” mentioned previously and it opens up the possibility of losing traffic to typos. Intentional misspellings (Flickr) – Dropping vowels, replacing S with Z or doubling up certain letters just looks plain unprofessional and is not good for memorability or usability. Unintended meanings – I’m sure everyone has seen the list of unfortunate domains like PenIsland.com. Watch out for hidden meanings you might not want to associate your identity with. Domain hacks (Del.icio.us) – Some people are fans of these quirky brands that use the TLD extension as part of the brand name itself to create a word. I believe this can hurt memorability and marketing efforts online and in person. Researching and flipping brandable domain names is not a walk in the park and it certainly pays to be patient. The right end-user may not come along for a year or more. Now is a great time to start investing in quality .com brands as they are becoming increasingly rare and domain prices are trending upward.

[size=15pt]How I Sold My Domain for $10,000[/size] I have been registering domains since 1995. In fact, still own a stake in Pizzas.com with a friend. Back then, domains had to purchased through Network Solutions for $35 (or more) per year. Today you can find domain registrars for less that $10 per year. When you have an idea, my advice is to look for a good domain and register it. I like to use Domize to research web domains because it’s fast - but do your thing. If you wait to register the domain when you have time to work on your idea, chances are it will already be gone. Today I probably own over 200 domains and each of them are special to me not only because many of them or 3-5 letter domains but because they remind me of my idea and excitement at that time in my life. I remember back in 2005 when the when the “ly” domains started getting popular. I purchased Numly.com for my online copyrighting business (still running) as well as Docly.com, Raply.com, Sigly.com, and Tagly.com. Each of these domains had a special idea associated with them and they all involved assigning timestamps to assets such as documents, songs, signatures, and property control assets. Some of the sites were developed but none of them (with the exception of Numly) took off. Last week, I received a request via email asking me if I would be interested in selling Tagly.com. The domain was sitting idle in my inventory but I was thinking about developing a mobile game called Tagly similar to the old game of tag that we all played when we were younger. It’s difficult to set a price on a domain because they are worth what the market will bear. Domains today are not worth what they were worth 15 years ago but short dotcom domains are very difficult to come by these days. I replied to the email with a $25,000 offer. The other party responded with a $10,000 counter offer and noted that this was the cap of his budget. I waited for a day to reply so that I could think it through; after all, this was a big difference in the price. I was thinking about negotiating but decided that if the offer was serious and if we could close the deal within the next 5 business days, that is one heck of a return on investment. I set these conditions in my response and the buyer setup an escrow.com account and kicked everything off that day. I recommend using one of these third-party escrow companies and escrow.com worked out well and even provided a wire transfer option for an additional $20. The speed of the transaction was well worth it and highly recommended. I have sold other domains in the past like DiaperBag.com and DiaperBags.com but Tagly.com is my new record price tag for a web domain. Maybe Pizzas.com (or one of my other domains) will beat this one in the future. Only time will tell - or - we’ll just have to get started on building out one of those new ideas  Source: v01c3.com 1 Like |

let me just answer you with one proverb saying that A man leaving in a glass house should not throw stone.from the beginning of what happened between you and 2sexy you are the first person that got it wrong to what he was pointed out that a ceo of the company can not afford $100 for domain? That should make you reason proper that the man was trying to get your domain and no service anywhere but with your childish behavior you misquoted him and started typing nonsense about someone that was looking for trouble invariably you were referring to him and many people can attest to that. The same way you reacted to Mike real statement sometimes ago and went ahead and created another thread on domains when you see that many people don't come to another thread you created you found a way of coming back to this one which was also created by you as a result of minor miss understanding from the main thread.Assuming if you are succeed second time only God knows how many thread could have been created by you.As a reasonable somebody i tried to studied the cause of your aggressive but I hardly see why you should acted the way you are acted so far. I understand you are contribute to the forum but just try and be a man know when to react to anything somebody write on you. It will surely help you even on offline. Best of luck to all domainers.
