Ron Jackson meant to write: Doom and Gloom in the Conference market!
DNJournal just posted an analysis of the past few years, as experienced from the perspective of a conference participant and observer.
The summary of it is at the end of page 2 and one needs to read between the lines of the report to obtain it; a difficult task, as it’s laden with photographs of happy [...]
DomainGang launching new, unique sales pitch service
At DomainGang we are known for stepping outside the proverbial box. So we are about to do it again.
We don’t offer regurgitated news and we don’t serve you content in a boring way. We want you to have fun reading our content, the way we have fun writing it.
Our beta launch of this new promotional [...]
Hard disk crash – What, me worry?
Shit happens.
This time, it happened without warning.
It was the perfect shitstorm: filesystem errors on a drive that was old enough to be replaced but we put it off considering a server move anyway. So it happened today, around 11am – the server crashed and the kernel could not load. We had to wait until the [...]
Give the Guy a Break!
All day today, Francois at Domaining.com has been adding, removing, shuffling, shifting and moving ad blocks on the left side, the right side and both sides of the web site.
Mere aesthetic experimentation?
This happened, only after several insensitive domainer bloggers accused Francois of seeking to monetize Domaining.com via ads and Paypal donations; in a clear display [...]
A Message to Content Scrapers: F#ck you!
I wasn’t aware of how far the habit of stealing someone else’s hard work has proliferated on the web. In the past, some good-for-nothing so-called “entrepreneurs” copied my entire corporate content, sales pitch and all, word for word. They were named, shamed and the content was forcibly taken down.
Today, in the context of regular content-writing, [...]
While you were busy blogging …
Some people don’t get it.
Blogging, for the sake of churning out chunks of irrelevant information creates no long-term value for the readership audience it pertains to target.
For an industry as diverse and loosely defined as “domaining” – a word that still appears to be a typo in every major word processor – value is [...]
Who cares about the Super Bowl commercials?
Another Super Bowl is over, thank God. So the Saints won over the Colts.
Millions of dollars spent on “creative” commercials, to be aired on Super Bowl Sunday every year.
Are these commercials really appealing and progressive – or are they simply a projection of America’s politically correct, ultra-conservative, hygienically clean corporate society?
Dispelling the rumors
There are several on-going rumors since DomainGang’s grand appearance at TRAFFIC Las Vegas (and sponsorship of Chef Patrick’s DomainFest appearance) and I’d like to take this opportunity to clarify and/or dispel a few things.
The interpersonal meetings were absolutely magnificent, and there was never a single sour moment with anyone I met. Meeting with domainers that [...]

TRAFFIC Las Vegas – Behind the scenes
After a long flight to Las Vegas, whereupon the pilot took a longer path to our destination, Las Vegas loomed strange drowned in a sea of water. The city that never sleeps is currently witnessing a record rainfall.
The cab driver dropped me off at the Hard Rock cafe. Only, it was the restaurant, not the [...]
Be a leader, not a follower
In less than 4 months of existence, DomainGang has achieved more than simply a Google PR3 and an Alexa ranking of 43,000 – which brought us to the 15th position in the top 100 domaining blogs.
What we have achieved is to stir the sleepy waters of domaining.
Instead of taking the easy road to pushing out [...]
Which uber-domainer would you share a room with at TRAFFIC?
After we broke the news late last night about Rick Latona’s ingenious plan to introduce DomainerShare(tm) as a way of increasing social interaction past the conference times, we decided to take the pulse of the domain industry; in particular, that of the TRAFFIC Las Vegas attendees.
We kindly ask you to take the poll below:
