John McCormac, founder of HosterStats, has been providing valuable statistics for domain name metrics since 2004. John calls these numbers “domnomics” – a portmanteau of domain and economics.
In domaining, what’s great about numbers is how they can be used to define trends, and to identify points on the timeline that spawn new realities.
John’s new eBook is called “Domnomics: The business of domain names” and it provides a detailed insight of the history of domain registrations, the tricks that made money for those “in the game,” and how it all continues to this day.
Here’s the book’s outlines:
