Reglike stories from June — Top 5

Moniker “wins” three spots on June’s top stories list.

Is there no such thing as bad press?

That phrase probably went out the window last month for Moniker. It took three of the month’s top five spots on Reglike for highest-trafficked stories. The stories also combined for over 350 comments. It was not good news.

Here’s the complete top five.

1. The fresh Moniker: Love it or Hate it? – It’s definitely the latter.

2. Moniker CEO Bonnie Wittenburg discusses botched transition – clients are not appeased as they still wait for many things to be fixed.

3. .XXX interview: Lessons on premium domains, marketing and more – This is a great interview for anyone interested in fresh TLDs.

4. Why Google is becoming a domain name registrar & what it means for the business – It will mean a lot of Google executes.

5. Sorry, Moniker. It’s Over. – I can’t imagine how many domains have been transferred out of Moniker over the past month.
