Seven points: Should you disclose your recent domain acquisition or not?
Posted by DomainGang on March 9, 2015, at 6:37 pm
When registering or buying domain names, most domain investors want to flat out brag about it. Did you beat Frank Schilling or Ammar Kubba in a NameJet auction? Good for you. Both domainers are actively bidding on expiring domain auctions. But is it smart to announce exactly which domain you won and paid dearly for? […]

My Internet Neutrality nightmare
Posted by DomainGang on March 1, 2015, at 11:09 am
It must have been something I ate last night; either the filet mignon was from beef grown on GMO grains, or the sauteed mushrooms were not brushed clean properly. Now, I don’t toss and turn during my sleep, the dawn finds me tucked in place the way I went to bed, like a wrapped candy […]

Pay $3,000 for this domain, are you crazy?
Posted by DomainGang on July 21, 2014, at 11:53 am
I really wanted that domain name, and I typed it in the browser. So it’s parked at Frank Schilling’s Domain Name Sales platform, which I’m familiar with. Great. So I made an inquiry to get a response and a quote back, as I don’t place offers right away; I want to take the pulse of […]

Domain investing: 7 reasons why your gTLD choices will fail
Posted by DomainGang on May 1, 2014, at 2:19 pm
Since the launch of generic gTLD domains in Februrary, domain investors are polarized about the potential of their investments. While some swear that their domain registrations of gTLDs come with a strategy and a solid plan, many simply grab whatever they can in order not to appear to be left out of the game. Meanwhile, […]
