Gary Millin, who is both a venture capitalist and a serial entrepreneur can make this happen. Gary is part of World.com. They own some of the most prime real estate on the web. His firm has built up businesses on such generic names as Doctor.com, Lawyer.com, India.com, USA.com, Popstar.com, London.com, Paris.com, and Madrid.com.

Now here is your chance. Go to http://www.worldaccelerator.com/ to see what needs to be done.

Congrats to Gary and Gerry.

Here is the full press release:
Domain-Driven Business Accelerator Unveiled
World Media Group has introduced into the ever-expanding accelerator marketplace, a first-of-its-kind accelerator that combines the inherent, powerful benefits of a premium domain name with winning development teams from all over the world.
New York, NY, November 14, 2012 (PRWeb) – Business incubators and accelerators have captured the imaginations of entrepreneurs worldwide, and these institutions have given birth to some of the most transformative Internet and technology businesses today. World Media Group, a company that specializes in bringing recognizable domain names to life in meaningful ways for online consumers, has announced the launch of World Accelerator (www.worldaccelerator.com)–a new business accelerator that utilizes a concept not yet seen in the burgeoning startup development marketplace.
In addition to offering traditional accelerator elements, such as seed capital and mentorship, World Accelerator offers teams the unique opportunity to build a thriving business on the foundation of a prominent and highly brandable domain name with access to a readily identifiable constituency of customers. Names such as alumni.com, comic.com, diploma.com, fight.com, fact.com, FAQ.com, Japan.com are just a few examples of the brands available via the accelerator. In real estate, billions are paid for premium locations. Online, your location is your domain name and a premier address can make the difference in giving you the credibility you need to open doors, improve conversions, improve retention and accelerate your business.
Led by Gary Millin as CEO, an industry maven responsible for turning World Media Group’s development of premium domain names into growing businesses, World Accelerator’s innovation is in providing startup companies with a valuable brand around which to build their businesses as a crucial starting point.
“Over the last ten years, the cost and time needed to bring exciting and disruptive businesses to market has dramatically compressed. However building credibility with customers, partners and your brand still takes time.” said Millin. “World Accelerator changes this paradigm, turning it upside down as companies can now start with a powerful existing brand on day one. With this business accelerator model we can empower the right teams – those with sound business plans, leadership and poised for action – to successfully develop these fertile domains into lucrative businesses.”
Since 2007, World Media Group has successfully developed numerous domain names into businesses, proving the model which is the foundation of the new accelerator. Millin, in his work with World Media Group and in collaboration with top management teams around the world, has achieved success with domain names such as Doctor.com, Lawyer.com, India.com, USA.com, Popstar.com, London.com, Paris.com, and Madrid.com. These, along with other World Media Group properties, have seen an average of 45% per annum revenue expansion and, today, generate over 20 million visitors a month.
Having outfitted his new business accelerator venture with a similar recipe for success, Millin is excited to start working now with even more top teams and entrepreneurs – stating that he has “extremely high hopes” for all of the businesses and people who will be seeking the services of World Accelerator – which is currently launching a beta site in order to generate interest and identify prospective participants for developing some of the most promising of its 1,000-plus internet domains.
“With our beta launch, World Accelerator will be seeking entrepreneurs and teams who have an interest and the capacity to develop these brands into successful sites. The criteria for acceptance into the program are pure and simple – a great idea that can leverage the brand, a solid leadership team, and an executable strategy,” said Millin. “Entrepreneur teams accepted into the World Accelerator program will have access to capital and mentoring, and of course a high visibility domain name – the key differentiator between World Accelerator’s services and those of other business accelerators.”
Millin has also drawn on his career, both as a venture capitalist and as a serial entrepreneur including founding and running a public company (Mail.com), to ensure that World Accelerator has a terrific team of mentors right out of the gate. The accelerator is headquartered in New York City and already has mentors from across the US, Europe and Asia.

How Not To Get The Domain You Want

Written on November 5th, 2012 by directnavigation6 shouts

I get emails daily asking if certain domains are for sale. Most leads will turn out to be useless. However, some will start a conversation which will eventually lead to a sale. There are various wording that turns me off in email inquiries. Some of these are:

1 – I am a student doing a project and need your domain for it,
2 – I see that you are not “using” the domain name,
3 – I am looking at 5 domains and yours is one that I may be interested in,
4 – Your alexa number is over x million so I know you dont get traffic,
5 – How much is your domain?

In addition, emails that come from free email addresses are also a turnoff.

Please lmk if you have encountered these or if there are others that you feel should be added to the list.

AMY.com – How would you like to Own this 3 letter domain name?

Written on October 2nd, 2012 by directnavigation6 shouts

I know that I haven’t posted in a while. I started to think of ways to get back into writing and realized that we have a few non core assets, some of which we sold and some in which we can sell. Amy.com is a amazing 3 letter.com that is a word and name. I have sold other 3 letter premiums as high as mid 6 figures so I know there is value in Amy.com. Is 100k reasonable. I think so. We just had a deal fall through so we are ready to sell.

feel free to email me larry @ Directnavigation.com (without the spaces)

BTW I will be writing an article shortly on incompetent domain brokers.

SelfEmployed.com Leads Sedo’s Sales at $58,000. Rome.net sells for $30,000.

Written on August 16th, 2011 by directnavigationno shouts

In this terrible job market, a domain like SelfEmployed.com can be very useful. $58000 seems like a good price. In NY foodtrucks are real big. I like that name – foodtruck.com. It sold for $30k.

Here is the complete list.

From $1,500,000 to $120,000 – A Domain Lesson Learned

Written on July 18th, 2011 by directnavigation13 shouts

I still buy domains. I keep a list on my desk and every so often I go through it. The problem I have is that I don’t go through the list often enough. I seem to realize that fact when I read about a name being sold that I had on that list.
That particular name was offered to me constantly at $1,500,000. While it is very good name, it’s not worth that to me. I would contact the owner less often over time mostly do the the fact that his asking price was so high and always the same. I realized today, that it had been far to long since we connected. Especially since that domain sold for $120,000. The name was OnlineDegree.com. For the price, it was an excellent buy. Congrats to the buyer.

Demand Media Loses A Billion Dollars In Valuation

Written on July 15th, 2011 by directnavigation7 shouts

Five months ago, Demand Media went public at $17 per share. Within a short time, the stock hit a high above $28 per share. It seemed like they hit the market at the perfect time. Internet stocks had once again become the favorites of Wall Street.

Flash forward to today, almost 6 months after that opening bell, Demand’s stock has tanked. It hit a low yesterday of 11 3/4. That means in a matter of a few months, the value of stock has gone down over ONE BILLION DOLLARS. Insiders, who have to wait 6 months after the IPO to sell their shares must be biting their nails as the value of their nest eggs continue to erode. My guess was that the stock would be around $10 at the six month mark. I guess in a few days we will all see what happens when additional shares are unloaded on the open market.

Google To Show Domain Names In Adwords HeadLines

Written on May 18th, 2011 by directnavigation6 shouts

How many times have you click on an adwords ad link thinking you were going to a certain website, only to be taken somewhere else? Obviously it has been happening to too many people. Google today announced that it will display the landing page’s domain name as part of the headlines on top placement ads.

The change should increase click thru to adsense ads that have strong generic domains. This is another reason to own prime generic domains for your business.

Is Demand Media Selling Amazing Domains To Help Stock Price?

Written on April 29th, 2011 by directnavigation12 shouts

Demand Media lists Map.com and Run.com for sale on Sedo
I wrote the other day about Demand Media large drop in stock price from its high. I imagine that there are a number of insiders biting their nails waiting for the opportunity to cash out. Each day the the stock trades lower there will be less money for their future bank accounts. (note- the stock has gone up some since my first comment but still trades below the IPO price.) Today I saw that Demand Media has listed 2 amazing domains for sale at from what I am told, reasonable reserves. If these names do sell cheap, it makes one wonder if they are throwing out great assets in order to increase the bottom line.
