To Hold Domainer Town Hall Meeting at DOMAINfest — Frank Schilling

Schilling will lead session at January’s DOMAINfest conference in Hollywood, California.

DOMAINfest disclosed that legendary domainer Frank Schilling will lead the first ever “Domainer Town Hall Meeting” at the DOMAINfest conference in Hollywood, California January 21-23, 2008. The DOMAINfest conference is presented by domain name parking firm DomainSponsor.

The conference will also include an auction in “an innovative fresh format”, as stated by conference organizers. Jay Westerdal’s Name Intelligence pushed the envelope with technology at its recent Domain Roundtable conference; it will be interesting to see what innovation DOMAINfest brings to the auction process.

The conference will include a number of sessions to help domainers hone their business skills counting negotiation, tax, and finance.

The early bird registration rate for the conference is $595 and ends this Friday. Rates will increase to $795 on September 1. Still, DomainSponsor clients who earn $2,500 with the program between December 1, 2007 and March 1, 2008, will receive a rebate for the entire conference fee.

It’s nice to see the conference organizers planning well in advance. It seems like many of these conferences are thrown together at the last minute with agendas not being published until the week ahead of.
