My Mom is not a Domainer
My Mom is not a domainer. She cannot even program the VCR. She doesn’t have an email address and ‘Google’ sounds like a ‘ghoul’ to her. Being a septuagenarian, my Mom is dependent on others, despite her persistence with things. When people age, there is no magic substitute to do the work one used to […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.48 Hours of domainer hell!
Francois of Domaining.com endured 48 hours of downtime hell, thanks to the laggard support of his web host, Pier1. While the readers of domain blogs used alternate methods to keep up, it’s always good to summarize things; that’s what Domaining.com does as a domain news aggregator. Here’s a quick list that links to our posts […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.So whom did we piss off yesterday?
Apparently, someone got rather pissed off at DomainGang, after yesterday’s posts and launched a DDoS attack on the server earlier today. Fortunately, our hosting provider responded quickly and shielded off the attackers in well under an hour. Still, we are perplexed about who was the perpetrator: The Nigerian 419 scammers? They are too simple-minded for […]

Words With Friends is down tonight so what a better way to end Friday than with a fun medley of all the domains that were sold at Domainfest 2012 in Santa Monica? Enjoy 😀 Marriages.com don’t last much, my friend Paul says. He sent out WeddingCards.net but the last moment, his fiancee Margo.com walked away. […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Trolls and Scum: Rick Schwartz is damn right!
While I just lost a bet that DomainGang can’t refrain from posting the name of the Domain King for 30 days, it’s for a good cause. Rick’s dead on about trolls and anonymous cowards on the Internet and forums. Since the era of Usenet and Newsgroups, trolling is an art that reveals many aspects of […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Why you should not restrict yourself to Domainers
DomainGang articles are aimed at domainers but we don’t restrict ourselves to this wonderful but small niche market of readers. When writing articles, one should aim for a wider market – simply because Big Brother Google is ever-watching. One such article from August, titled “Did Steve Jobs die a while ago?” ended up being in […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Hilarious domain speculator!
It’s clearly baffling when people fail to understand what they’re reading. In the case of DomainGang, we always strive to give a funny, odd or interesting twist to stories – even if they are 100% true. Remember: the “100%” graphic indicates a story is fully accurate with no invented bits and pieces. However, some people […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.A Reporter’s primary obligation: to report the News
Imagine living in a world where there is no information about what is happening outside of your own house. Things would be confusing to some, then again others might feel blessed in their isolation. Now juxtaposition that to a larger scale: your building, your neighborhood, your city, your country. The world. News is what happens, […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.The Month of Madness has started
Oh, how time flies. By the end of this month, DomainGang will be one year old. When it all started in September of 2009, DomainGang.com was an experimental outlet for several years’ worth of concentrated thoughts, ideas and suggestions about the domaining industry. A year later, the market is much more mature and embracing of […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.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 […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.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 […]
Copyright © 2024 DomainGang.com · All Rights Reserved.Welcome to DomainGang
Let’s face it: our day is long, tiring and full of unpleasant things. We need some good, wholesome fun to take away the daily stress. To get away from the daily monotony we need some parody, some mindless reading, some quirky info about nothing in particular. Domainers are in a serious business – we’ll be […]
