Back From DomainFest With Lots of Good Stories

Written on January 31st, 2010 by directnavigationno shouts

I’m sorry for going dark the last few days. Since there were a number of blogs covering the basics, i.e. the seminars, the auction, etc., I thought I’d wait and recap some of the events and tell some of the interesting stories I heard the past few days.

First, Domainfest was everything I thought it would be and more. Oversee had a first class event and deserves to get recognized for a Tradeshow that represents the needs of the Domaining community. The seminars were targeted to the needs of the domainer. There were seminars on getting domains, SEO and SEM, and new monetization methods among others. The selection of speakers were first rate (not just because I was one). My favorite of the seminars was on SEO and SEM. You can’t do better than having both Danny Sullivan and Bruce Clay on the same panel. Their insight was extremely helpful to me. I plan to go to more of the SEO Tradeshows that they participate in.

The selection of Tony Hsieh was perfect. He told of his starting LinkExchange and selling it to Microsoft for $265,000,000. He detailed the process of building zappos.com into one of onlines largest shoe retailers and his philosophy on making employees part of a family unit.

If I had to highlight just one reason to go to the next Domainfest, it would be the networking. Yes other domain shows like Traffic offer excellent networking, however this show with approximately 1000 attendees trumped the recent Traffic shows where attendance has dropped substantially.

The rumor is that there will be another Domainfest this year in Europe, sometime in September or October.

Tomorrow I will write one of the most amusing stories I heard at Domainfest. I don’t think you’ll hear this story anywhere prior to my posting it on DirectNavigation.com.

I’m heading to Domainfest Early Tuesday

Written on January 25th, 2010 by directnavigation2 shouts

I really enjoyed Domainfest last year. It was one of, if not, the best conferences that I went to last year. Oversee has posted the full schedule on their site. I will be part of the Structured Networking – Ask the Experts and Interact With Peers – on Wednesday morning. Please stop by and say hello.

Why do I Keep Searching For Viagra?

Written on January 25th, 2010 by directnavigationone shout

I have a small secret. The first thing that comes to my mind when I get to my computer is Viagra. I didn’t think I needed it but the hundreds of Spam messages I receive each day must think otherwise. Viagra is by far the most used term in the Spam that I receive. Actually, I find Spam to be one of the more interesting ways to find out what’s the hottest keywords used in marketing. The terms “software” and “free” are a very distant 2nd and third. While Spam can be annoying, you never know if the next spam message you receive will give you the idea for your next domain name that you register. What terms do you see heavily used in the Spam emails that you receive?

Do You like Companies That Lose Money, In Debt and Into Porn, Have I got an IPO For You

Written on January 23rd, 2010 by directnavigation2 shouts

FriendFiender Networks, Inc which includes Penthouse is losing lots of money. They can’t pay off creditors so what’s the plan. It’s an IPO of course. According to the WSJ they are looking to raise 200 million in an IPO next week. Recently I saw the off Broadway show Avenue Q. One of the main songs in the show is “the Internet is for porn”(watch it on Youtube).Maybe those puppets know something I don’t.

Live WebCast Of Ari’s Son’s Bar Mitzvah This Saturday

Written on January 22nd, 2010 by directnavigation2 shouts

Ari’s eldest son Max is having his Bar Mitvah Saturday, which is the main reason that neither Ari or I attended this weeks Traffic in Vegas. Keeping up with the latest Internet technology, The Bar Mitzvah is being telecast tomorrow starting at 7:30 Pm EST. The link starts working then. From what I’m told it’s definitely an event to check out.

GreatDomains Auction Starts Today. How Can They Call This A Premium Auction?

Written on January 21st, 2010 by directnavigation7 shouts

GreatDomains.com is Sedo’s attempt to run Premium Auctions of Domain Names. While some of the GD auctions in the past have had premium domains auctioned, this is not one of them. Since Sedo is one of the largest domain name sales sites out there, you would think they could truly come up with some Premium Names to sell. However, with Rick Latona doing the Traffic Vegas auction and Moniker handling the Domainfest auction, it looks like Sedo couldn’t enough Premium names to list. On the positive side there are some decent names and low reserves. I just think this was the wrong week for them to have this Month’s GD auction.

I have added to this post the list of GD domains and their reserve so you can judge for yourself.

Read This And Help a fellow Domainer Try to Save His Daughter’s Life

Written on January 21st, 2010 by directnavigation4 shouts

Francois at Domaining.com passed this Info on to me to help get the word out.

Dear Friends:

Please take two minutes to read this. Our charity is currently closing in on 5th place, with more than 30,000 votes, out of more than 500,000 organizations to win a $1 Million grant from Chase and we need your help to keep the momentum up through the end of final round voting on Friday, January 22.

I’ll try to make this as short as possible. Many of you know that my two-year-old daughter, Gwendolyn, has a terminal genetic disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). SMA is the leading genetic killer of young children and at the ripe old age of 2, Gwendolyn is considered an outlier living with this cruel disease. Gwendolyn is awesome — in every way — plain and simple. But this degenerative disease has left my precious little girl completely paralyzed and dependent on machines to eat, swallow, cough, and breathe — while her mind remains untouched. In short, SMA is a brutal disease and we’re fighting to help cure it, hopefully in time to save Gwendolyn’s life.

Our nonprofit, the Gwendolyn Strong Foundation, has a unique opportunity to win a $1 Million grant in the Chase Community Giving campaign on Facebook. How did that happen? Well, our supporters voted us to one of the top 100 organizations out of more than 500,000 charities in the first round and we’re now in 6th place with more than 30,000 votes in the final round. We’ve pledged 100% of anything we receive from Chase to SMA awareness and research programs and this amount of funding, which is extremely material to SMA programs, WILL help accelerate that CURE for SMA — no doubt about that.

So, please take a few minutes out of your day to help us out:

VOTE – Go to http://VoteForSMA.com to vote

POST LINK – Post the voting link – http://VoteForSMA.com – to your Facebook profile every day of this week

POST VIDEO – Post our campaign YouTube video – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQkUwDEou7Q – to your Facebook profile

EMAIL – Forward the voting link – http://VoteForSMA.com – to at least 20 contacts and ask that they do the same

TWITTER – Use our creative http://VoteForACure.com Twitter app to spread the word

For more information on the Gwendolyn Strong Foundation, please visit http://GwendolynStrongFoundation.org.

Thank you for your help. We can’t do this alone, but together we can make this $1 Million MIRACLE an SMA reality — for all of those impacted by this horrible disease!

Bill

SMA – Spinal Muscular Atrophy – kills more babies than any other genetic disease. SMA is currently a death sentence. But, there is enormous HOPE! Research is on the brink of a cure, but in desperate need of funding. …

Guest Post From Oversee CEO Jeff Kupietzky

Written on January 21st, 2010 by directnavigationone shout

Oversee has had some ups and downs over the last year but they continue to remain strong and are one of the giants in the Direct Navigation business. Their Domainfest Conference starts next Tuesday. I recently asked Jeff Kupietzky to do a guest post which he was kind enough to do. Here is the post directly from Jeff.

What we saw in 2009:

2009 was a year of retrenching, not just for our industry but for businesses everywhere, thanks to economic and financial problems around the world. It’s a testament to the value of what comprises our industry that we didn’t go the way of the automakers. Online real estate is just tremendously valuable, as are the services that help people and businesses develop them.

What’s ahead for 2010:

Consolidation should play a fairly big role. Stronger players who invest well will get stronger and I believe we’ll see exits by the weaker ones. People and companies will need to be well-equipped to grow further into this space.

PPC as a stand-alone model will have to transform, and build-out is a very compelling alternative. There is a great deal of opportunity in this area. Also, we’ll begin to see development of mobile and social networking traffic—this is where everyone is spending their time and we expect to play in that area. So there will be opportunities to monetize beyond the domain name space, which is what got us to this point.

If the ICANN process can get out of its own way, we’ll see new top-level domains develop further this year. ICANN is very keen to make this happen.

Finally, I believe there will be a rise in European and Asian traffic, and they’ll be considered valid markets for advertisers and publishers to pursue. That’s already happening, but it should become more pronounced in 2010.

The future of Oversee:

We’re excited about three areas of focus and growth for us. As the leader in monetization for direct navigation (parking) we’re bullish on future optimization enhancements to improve monetization as well as the opportunity to grow outside of our traditional US base. More than half of our traffic comes from outside the US but we still get most of our revenue domestically. There’s a big opportunity to use our technological know-how to close that gap.

The second key area is leveraging our strong assets in the aftermarket and registrar area to provide continued great service for our domain clients. This includes running the best expiry-drop service, the best live and online domain auctions, customized brokerage services and the premier relationship registrar offering.

Finally, we are believers in the buildout opportunities and have begun to invest in developing tools and solutions to help build out domains. This would include using our expertise in traffic management, landing page optimization and the other capabilities needed to evolve parked pages to deeper, more involved web properties.

DOMAINfest Global
If you’ve already registered for DOMAINfest Global 2010, we’re looking forward to seeing you there. If not, there’s still time! Just register at www.domainfest.com.

The agenda, as usual, is very full and offers a great deal of value. Our keynote speaker is Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh, who will share fresh thinking and insights into online customer behaviors and intelligent risk- taking.

We’re also featuring PITCHfest, a new agenda item – in this rapid-fire session, up to five hand-picked finalists publicly unveil new, alpha- or beta-stage product and service ideas for increasing website traffic and revenue. The audience will be among the first to discover new ways to build out a domain name or increase revenue at an existing site. Real-time, text-message vote decides who gets the DOMAINfest Global 2010 Service Innovator award.

And, of course, there are top-notch social events. This year we’re having a networking dinner party at The Getty Museum. DOMAINfest has exclusive access to the museum for the evening, and this event will feature great networking, fun competitions and a chance to see some of the world’s best-known art.

The event will close with DomainSponsor’s annual party. For the second year, we’re hosting the party at the Playboy Mansion. The venue and format were so popular last year, we took attendees’ advice and returned to the mansion. The event will feature fundraising for Generation Rescue, Jenny McCarthy’s foundation to find a cure for autism.

I’m looking forward to seeing many of you at DOMAINfest, and to working with others in our industry toward a productive 2010.

Afternic Weekly Sales Continue To Be Strong

Written on January 21st, 2010 by directnavigation2 shouts

Afternic had just under $600,000 in sales last week with the two leaders being barbecuing.com for just $10,750 and motorcyclecenter.com for $10,000.00.
Barbecuing is a nice niche in the food category and well worth the price paid. I also liked HOWTOCODE.com at $2,000.00 and NYFurniture.com at $8000.
