A pro who’s eager to sell domains, a charity auction, and a smart rebrand: Must reads
Eric Borgos on why he’s selling domains, help the tornado victims, and a “cool” rebranding.
Here are a few domain stories I read today that I think are worth reading.
Eric Borgos has published an interesting perspective regarding 10 Reasons Why I Am Eager To Sell My Domains. Last year Borgos’ firm had sales of $1.25 million, and domain sales were the firm’s largest source of income.
Elliot Silver, DomainBoardroom.com, and Escrow.com have teamed up for a charity auction to benefit Oklahoma tornado victims. All proceeds will go to the Red Cross in Oklahoma City. Items in the auction include domain names as well as an SEO audit by Bill Hartzer, a gift certificate to Bobbleheads.com, and a guest post on ElliotsBlog. Bidding takes place via comments on the blog post, so Elliot is going to have fun keeping track of this one.
Kudos to Domain Advisors for rebranding as Igloo.com. Whenever I saw an email or tweet from Domain Advisors, I had to think regarding who was behind the firm. Domain Advisors or Domain Holdings? If Domain Holdings, which of the two firms named that? Or is it one of the other many firms with Domain + some common term? Igloo.com is memorable and shows that the firm “gets” domains.
