A. When dealing with a lot of the bigger companies the big thing looking at the deals they have. Most of them are about the same to deal with and offer most of the same features. One thing you should think about is privacy options. The domain name is going to get registered to your name and contact information that you provide. This can be used by spammers or others to get info you may not want others to see. Some of the domain registrars offer privacy options where it gets registered through a proxy info sort of. Good feature to look into! Now when purchasing a domain name there are a few things to think of on the marketing side of things. You will probably want something easy to remember or easy to guess depending on your target audience.… [cont.]

A. Have you tried ? They actually have free web hosting and you can upload to your site with FTP. I wouldn't recommend that you use their domain names because you always want a unique domain name. I do use the free hosting for one of my wordpress blogs. I have my other blogs hosted there also along with the domain names. Hope this helps. TG

A. ICANN has a defined procedure to make accredited registrars (like godaddy). It's a highly expensive task and only serious domain name businesses choose to follow that path. I don't want to enter the specifics but i assume you're not interested for this (i gave you some links below to check just for your information). Additional to the cost for the registrar you need to prepay in packs the domains you will sell from the registry operator. All these above are for official registrars and not for simple domain resellers. For hosting is pretty simple. You rent a dedicated server from a datacenter, share the memory, bandwidth and hard disk resources to many clients and you easily sell shared webhosting packs. You can also buy VPS hosting plans… [cont.]

A. Well your idea is really great, only problem is Google keeps track on such directories and websites which are either closed or blocked, and if they realized you are using them for your website for SEO reasons, then it will block your website from Search Engines, and then either black mark it or highlight it as a SPAM. So be cautious of using such tricks for SEO things, which made you cause more than anything.

A. Not if the search engines catch you. Than bad things will happen to your search ranking. In my experience, It's much more effective to simply blog (v6transition.com) about your site and to have a facebook (facebook.com) account for your site.

A. Basically your hosting should have plenty of built-in solutions that help to measure traffic, like Awstats for example. Go to your hosting account and look for the Stats tools. You should have at least 2-3 available. They will give all necessary info about what keywords are used by the people who get to your misspelled sites.

Asked by Jason - Tue Aug 7 10:55:35 2007 - Other - Business & Finance - 1 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Send a professionally written letter introducing yourself as a domain broker, or whatever you want to call yourself. Follow this up about a week later with a simple telephone call and try to schedule a meeting. Don't allude to your specific domain name until the actual face-to-face. You have to sell yourself and sell the name. 80 percent of successful sales are based on the fact that the buyer took a liking to the seller, not the actual product or service. Good luck. If your price is too high, they will shoot you down. Let them make a preliminary offer.

A. Quite simply, nobody thought of it. Remember, back then, folks weren't nearly as net-savvy as they are now, and no-one thought that domain names would go for the sort of crazy money being asked for them now. The purpose for which the net was originally programmed (of exchanging information/data between scientists) never even envisaged the sort of net we have now. By the time folks started to realise what was happening, it was way too late for anyone to try this sort of stunt--they'd have needed the resources of Lichtenstein, the Bahamas and the gnomes of Zurich all rolled into one. Maybe this is a good thing--after all, can you imagine what would happen if someone like Bill Gates got control over domain names?? Hope This of Help Scots
