Copyright © 2025 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.How to buy domains cheap—Not! Guidelines from 2011 ripped to pieces
Back in 2011, a so-called “insider” shared a guide on how to acquire domains “on the cheap,” pitching a step-by-step strategy built around lowball offers, feigned scarcity, and playing the role of a budget-strapped buyer. The guide appears as a lengthy comment in a post about domain names. The comment begins thus: “Okay, Kids, Here […]
Copyright © 2025 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Numbers vs. words: Which domain name wins?
When choosing between a digit like “4” or its word equivalent (“four”) in a domain name, which one builds a stronger brand? Many domain investors and cognitive science studies suggest words have the edge. Josh from DNX.com recently sparked discussion with a post ranking numbers in word form over digit counterparts: “Zero > 0”, “One […]

Receiving accolades and kudos from industry leaders is always a great honor; InterNetX has compiled a list of “must-read” blogs about domain names.

Copyright © 2025 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Hit the Slash key for Spaceship’s launchpad
Spaceship arrived on a modest rocket but the secret ingredient has been the fuel. The domainer-friendly registrar has followed a remarkable journey from launch to orbit, gaining 3 million domains under management in just two years. The Spaceship fuel is its customer service—by far the best I’ve encountered in a quarter century in the domain […]

GoDaddy’s Afternic platform introduced a self-brokerage option yesterday, seeking to engage domain investors that would like to handle inbound inquiries themselves. The system requires that sellers are members of the Discount Domain Club (DDC)—a paid membership that typically costs $240 dollars per year. It does provide added benefits but for the sole purpose of self-brokering […]

The recent brokered listing of the domain AI.com has ended speculation about its status since the last known sale in 2021. In a nutshell: AI.com has not been sold since the SAW.com brokerage aided in its acquisition by a mysterious buyer who appears to be based in Singapore. The asking price, at the time, was […]
Copyright © 2025 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.What did you do last week?
It’s Tuesday and it’s the proper time this week to ask a crucial question: What did you do last week? It’s a trap question, specifically for those who work 9-5 or any other shift of employment. Elon Musk asked that question last week by sending an email to a bunch of federal employees. It’s like […]
Copyright © 2025 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.December, the month of domain discounting!
Domain investors work hard, almost 12 months a year. I say “almost” because December seems to be the least productive month of the year and the most expensive one. Full of holiday joy, December is almost fully spent with family and friends, leading to plenty of money spent on outings, trips, and presents. With that […]

After 15 years with GoDaddy, Benjamin Gless & the company parted ways this summer. As GoDaddy shifted focus from specific products to others, Benjamin found himself in an awkward position: His talent, productivity, and ability to lead could not be given an objective to carry. GoDaddy downsized the company to save money and Benjamin seized […]

For the past 25+ years I’ve been a Florida resident; I grew used to the summer rain and the storm outlook that can turn into a hurricane. There are plenty of instances when hurricanes disrupted or affected Floridians’ lives but we learn to roll with the punches. As an Orlando resident, I’m more inland and […]
Copyright © 2025 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Political domains and a damning answer
Yesterday’s VP debate outlined the great divide, in political terms, between the two parties’ leadership. There’s the fact-checking, truth-telling party and the lying-through-your-nose, anything-for-a-vote party. If you watched the debate of Waltz vs. Vance you can probably tell who represented which. Politics as heated as presidential elections attract registrations of political domains. Some might outlive […]
