It’s been 5 great years already, and how the world of domains has changed since 2009!
We now have gTLDs that only existed in “ClownPenis.fart” jokes. Halvarez is nowhere to be seen. Parked.com is gone. Morgan Linton is a millionaire (almost!) Frank Schilling owns a Registry, but not his own airline – yet.
What hasn’t changed in 5 years, is our commitment to delivering domain and social media news with a special twist. Whether it’s real news or parody spoof stories, DomainGang carries the torch for being different.
As of today, and with more than 2,493,529 pageviews from 1,253,745 unique visitors later, rest assured that we’re one of the few domain industry blogs that delivers consistent traffic and exposure to our sponsors. There are more than 4,000 unique posts, spanning news, stories, interviews and information on the wonderful world of domaining.
A big thank you to everyone who supported, commented, contributed and encouraged us over the course of these past 5 years. It’s been a journey that provided us with knowledge and – quite often – many sleepless nights! 😀

Onto year six.
