5 Domain Name Stories — February’s Top

Here’s a recap of the stories that were most popular on Reglike last month, as measured by pageviews.

1. WIPO panel screws Domaining.com owner Francois Carrillo out of Ado.com – Thankfully, he’s not done fighting.

2. GoDaddy “for sale” tweak leads to 41% more aftermarket sales revenue – Fresh “For Sale” messages are drastically increasing sales of aftermarket domain names.

3. Google is upping the ante on SSL – The Chrome browser will begin showing “not secure” on non-SSL sites, even those without forms.

4. Back from NamesCon — here’s my take. It was a good conference. If you missed it, here’s a great summary of the keynotes.

5. Analyzing startup domain names – Most of the startups selected for MassChallenge’s inaugural Texas class use .com, but not all of them.
