Fresh Wall Street Journal article to cover domain drop catching

The Wall Street Journal is writing a fresh article regarding the domain name industry – this one regarding expired domain drop catching.

As stated by a post at DNForum by someone who stated he was interviewed for the story, The Wall Street Journal is writing another article regarding the domain name industry. This article will cover drop catching and the expired domain business. Hopefully the paper will interview not only successful individuals and firms on the buy side but also representatives of the popular drop catching services. It will be interesting to see if the article also discusses direct drop agreements like the one between Network Solutions and SnapNames.

The Wall Street Journal Online wrote an article in November regarding the growing domain name market and how values are based on potential advertising revenue.

For more on the drop catching market and the most popular services, see the post regarding Reglike’s survey results for expiring domains.
