Domain Names and Good Ideas    Author: Will


Posted in domain names | |

How many times have you run across a great domain name, got all excited about what you could do with it, and then just dropped the ball?

This is definitely a problem that I see developing in myself lately.  It’s not really that I lose interest, but rather that I have (paying) clients who I’d prefer to give the attention to.  Since my kids continue to consume food, I have to continue to work.

So while I may get a project going 10% or even 75%, within a week or two I’ve forgotten all about it because of other pressing issues.

How many great domains and great ideas do you have ‘waiting in the wings’?

Gambling Domains for Sale    Author: Will


Posted in domain names | |

I have two gambling domains for sale. One has a site on it, the other does not. Neither one has been promoted much, and has not made me much income, thus the sale. If you’re interested in more info, email will at TechLH dot com.

Do I Have to Buy a .com?    Author: Will

Without getting in too deep into SEO tactics, I wanted to touch on the subject of buying a domain name. Often times GoDaddy, Registerfly and various other domain registrars have sales on .info domain names.

Now, some of the bigshots in SEM say that .com is the only way to go. Bullhockey. I’ve had plenty of good luck ranking .info names, including several number one spots on Google, Yahoo! and more. To me, the idea that .com is more trusted than the others is probably of little value.

Back to the sales on .info. If you keep an eye on various SEM blogs, which I’m sure most of you do, you’ll sometimes see mention of .info sales. I’ve even seen FREE .info names for a year. Most recently, I heard that a registrar had them for 88cents, and I believe GoDaddy currently has .info on sale for 99 cents.

So go grab a few .info domain names. They’re cheap, and you can get some pretty good keywords to help you target your campaign.
