Latona's has secured the listing for sopa.com. There's something about this name that I like and thought was blog worthy. Let's see, what is it? Oh, it means "sweep" in Swedish. Wait, that's not it. In domainer terms it's a cvcv or consannant-vowel-consannant-vowel. "so" - "pa". It has a nice ring to it. Hey I [...]

I was having a Skype conversation with a couple of domainers that have huge portfolios and put up big sales numbers each year. We started talking about how to price your domains and by the end of the conversation I realized why I have been selling mine too cheap for too long. When comparing numbers, [...]

I like to walk. My friends, family and other travel companions know they need to bring comfortable shoes when they go on trips with me. On visits to New York City I've gone on some epic journeys, some lasting more than 8 hours. I had a friend that lived in Dumbo (Down under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) [...]

Here's an opportunity for designers and webmasters to make some money developing premium domain names. This is a soft and very humble launch. We are trying to get this out the door on a shoestring budget. Over the years I've lost a small fortune trying to mass develop domains as mini-sites and then lost another [...]

This is an announcement that I have a client that is buying any sort of domains and websites (good or bad) that have a Google PageRank of 5 or higher. Please contact me if you have any for sale. Do not put them in the comments. Tell me using the contact form on my blog.

This is a subject that has been on my mind a lot lately. The domainer in me would naturally gravitate to the plural of a domain in most cases. After all, a store called refrigerator.com doesn't make as much sense as refrigerators.com. Just how big is their inventory? Since relaunching Latona's and refocusing my brokerage company [...]

Let's break down a deal that is particularly great due to a recently lowered reserve. The site is easytoinsureme.com which has just been reduced to $50,000. Here's a link to the listing. I think it's prudent to get right to the biggest thing everyone is going to want to talk about, the revenue reported on [...]
