48 Hours of domainer hell!
Francois of Domaining.com endured 48 hours of downtime hell, thanks to the laggard support of his web host, Pier1. While the readers of domain blogs used alternate methods to keep up, it’s always good to summarize things; that’s what Domaining.com does as a domain news aggregator. Here’s a quick list that links to our posts [...]
Copyright © 2012 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.So whom did we piss off yesterday?
Apparently, someone got rather pissed off at DomainGang, after yesterday’s posts and launched a DDoS attack on the server earlier today. Fortunately, our hosting provider responded quickly and shielded off the attackers in well under an hour. Still, we are perplexed about who was the perpetrator: The Nigerian 419 scammers? They are too simple-minded for [...]
Copyright © 2012 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Editorial: Adriana Tayraco plagiarizes DomainGang exclusive on BrandProtect.com
“Can you write copy?” This is the type of question often asked when employing someone at a position that requires the creative output of descriptive material. Unfortunately, the notion that someone can “write copy” often fails to include the word “unique“. You see, it’s very easy to spin-off, clone or plagiarize something, and not give [...]
Copyright © 2012 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.The truth behind the End of AdSense for Domains by Google
Suckers! Yes, I’m talking to you – who entrusted Google with your domains via the AdSense for Domains program. Google has just pulled the rug from under your feet. For 3+ years, Google tasted your traffic, poked your performance, all while giving you back pennies on the dollar. I guess you didn’t care much then [...]

About time for another DomainGang editorial. Shane Cultra wrote an interesting article a couple of days ago, about “the value of unique.” I fully agree, creativity comes at a premium and those that can churn out copy – per the old school approach – will always come on top of those that simply copy and [...]

In February of last year we wrote an analysis about digging for the truth on the Internet. It was related to the claim that the largest snowflake ever recorded was of gargantuan proportions. Right this minute hundreds of hits per second are falling on our pages, thanks to Google’s logo commemorating the alleged event. While [...]
Copyright © 2012 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Too much spam, man!
A company called ‘Ubiquity Hosting‘ allowed its customers to bombard us with relentless comment spam. Every time we complained to Ubiquity Hosting abuse department, their eventual response was that they have forwarded our complaint to their customer. Guess what: in a matter of days, more comment spam from Ubiquity Hosting IPs. Spam originating from Ubiquity [...]

Copyright © 2012 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Sadly, we have to bid farewell …
It’s a sad point in time but we will face it, like we’ve done so many times before with positive thoughts. There is no doubt that the bad economy is countered by the strength and psyche of all domainers, that strive daily to commit one thing: more sales. Thank you, Francois, mon ami, for the [...]
Copyright © 2012 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Je suis desole, Francois! OK, my French is pretty basic…
I’m very sorry, Francois for what I have to say publicly – but I hope you understand. Yesterday we brought awareness to the Domaining.com readers – of which are many – that a “competitor” in the field has been under a DDoS attack. Abdu Tarabichi is a professional, like you, and just so happens to [...]
