If I choose to contest your thoughts, take it for what you will. Shit, if it makes you happy disregard me as a know-nothing. I choose not to elaborate, as the admiration of forum personalities means very little. Again, I disagree with you. With that said, I choose to not elaborate, nor add any validity to my claims.
you know, i thinks its great when ppl can actually use this site to network, share ideas and contribute. thats why i'm here. share a little, learn a lot. I never said you were "filthy greedy" etc. but you said you don't agree with me. great. I only asked you to elaborate. now you say that I care about being admired, WTF? you're making no sense. just sharing useful info, thought that's what this thread was for. maybe not all of gfy, but check out this thread... the guy wants to INVEST... and i told him to be careful... lol.

and no one asked you to read my ESSAY. and I respect you because I know your portfolio. even the ones you don't list. but since you're not sharing anything... i'll wait for your next informative post that says absolutely nothing.

My point was to aware you - That you may be able to pull the wool over the sheep's eyes. However those actually encompassing this industry, see your posts/experiences/thoughts for what they're - Bullshit.

Taboo, honestly - No hate, or ill will. I just find your constant name dropping, and DNjournal references to be very juvenile/amatuer. As if, you're overcompensating for your own self worth. But nevertheless, continue you on.

that's ok.

he is one of the highrollers, especially catching dropped names, but every now and then I beat him. lol. in fact I bid a name up to $3k at one drop site and then when the drop finally happened, my $13 backorder grabbed it. unreal.

lol. laugh all you want. i'm not namedropping if I'm telling ppl to go read the articles. it's called news. moron. If i talked to ppl about the Billboard Music topten, would you accuse me of namedropping britney spears, etc. FOOL. i don't own any of the resources I posted. they are useful/useless to some but dnjournal's top ten is nice way to watch the market. i check it every tuesday evening.

how am i pulling the wool over anyone's eyes. what am i selling them? buying? I only wish when I entered the game, someone like webfather convinced me to buy every dictionary term you can think of. I was an active member of his community for a long time, and well know for my portfolio. i only took a break from domains/adult to make money during the mainstream bubble.

I realize now that if there was an IGNORE feature for gfy, you'd be the first one on it. and hopefully vice versa. lol. call me what you will, but i stand beside my domains. and I don't need to post them in my sig for approval. SPAMMER. just kidding.

why are you posting at all? to spam your domains each time:
www.ER.com
www.Glossary.com
www.CRE.com
www.HotLatinas.com


these two go to a hosting page:
www.Glossary.com
www.CRE.com
http://www.hostingrequest.com/hosting-directory/
lots of useful info there. lol. trying to market them or sell them? or make money with them? you're a genius. i never thought of using a HOSTING acct page. wow. maybe you'll put up a 404 next. teach us oh great one.

Here's some more "namedropping" for you:

Want to get into the domain drop game?
these sites allow you to place backorders.
different rules, different bidding tactics.
different ending times. read carefully.

Pool.com
namewinner.com
Enom.com "club drop"
godaddy.com
and countless others.

in fact i'm going to compile a step by step guide to make it easy for ppl to not get burned. and I sell it for...


not $50




not $25



not $10



not $5









but FREE.

a detailed guide. maybe even scripts, advice, tips, secrets and all the namedropping I can fit into it. and just for you AVM, oh mighty guru, testimonials from real industry insiders that know me, but don't know who the hell you are.

god... I hope the market doesn't get saturated.

But as Rick (webdad) used to say, there is always some gold / diamonds in them mines

Oh no, you posted a link to one of my traffic monetization techniques. God forbid.

In either case, why are you so defensive? Why do your retorts extend into several posts? My remarks hitting a little to close to home? Because after all of your futile attempts to belittle me, I'm still sitting here unaffected, and civilized. Perhaps this is due to me being secure with how I represent myself on this community. While you're on quite the rampage.

and one more important tip for people who care:

make sure if you signup at pool.com to sign up for their affiliate program right away BEFORE you add names to your watch list. It'll help you save a little more every time you bid. And make a quicklink on your browser toolbar that goes to your affiliate id for pool.com every time you login and add names. it has saved me thousands of dollars. but do not add names unless you are absolutely sure you'll spend $60 for it if it drops and you're the only one who bid.

AVM, was it wrong of me not to put a link to my pool affiliate acct so i can make money off all these, what did YOU call them all...oh yeah "SHEEP"...

I see negative posts just like yours on gfy Search Engine threads when SEOs give advice, the other SEOs try to tell him to shut up, or say BS, BLAHBLAHBLAH. No wonder no one shares here.

I don't care how many more posts you have or how much longer you've been here, you've already told us all the reasons why you're not here.

not here to share
not here to hold hands
not here to elaborate
not here to add validity


but gotta love your sig:

you represented yourself just great in this thread. no one knows exactly why you're here. in fact, why are you still here? I'm glad you have a first class portfolio. but it doesn't mean shit to anyone how great your names are if it doesn't help them. since in your eyes RAMPAGE = networking and sharing advice, i'm guilty.

but that's just me. sorry, but i'd rather be networking than not working.

over-saturated. but always room for more. but the guy who started this thread said he was going to dump $15k into investing in domains, and I've heard that story many times before...and it usually ends sad. at least he's got a lot of resources to check out and then decide how/where to play this game.

No problem Taboo, I enjoy witnessing your wanna-be "big time domainer" tirade. Thus, am delighted I could contribute to at least one thing in this thread; Your post count.

But hey, post count is irrelevant when you've Comcast, Sony, etc on speed-dial. I'm just glad you've time for us civilians, and care to Network with such lesser mere mortals. When you're dealing with some of the top corporations in the World. All within a week, no less. Gee golly.

Fabricate more stories, and continue to sing your tales of fortune.In fact - better yet, provide your identity instead of masking your Whois. I'd love to know who is the current hotshot I am conversing with.

Doesn't anyone know how to pick up a phone anymore and cold call? You know, big companies do have phones just like you. In fact, with this amazing "Phone" technology I can actually talk to a "LIVE" person that can give me the extension number of Legal/Marketing etc. It's quite amazing sometimes. This "Phone" allows you talk while another person listens and it even works both ways. You should try it sometimes instead of hoping people find you.

I never discuss what a particular domain was sold or bought for. In most cases I can't for 3-5 years. It's what "fancy shmancy" businesses call a Non Disclosure Agreement, sometimes they even make you sign it if you want to get paid. Sometimes I even bring up the topic of NDAs/NCAs and offer to sign one to prove I'm serious. They might even expect me to honor it. wow.

Is that what's been bunching up your panties? You don't know who I am, I thought you couldn't care less. LOL. The curious.com whois record is hidden so the name doesn't get hijacked, spammed, etc. while I develop it. I just acquired it. You see, I don't wait for ppl to contact me via whois, I'm doing all the work because I have more control over negotiations. Maybe someday we'll sit down, look back and laugh at this conversation. You can call me "Wanna Be" and I can call you "Never Be". It'll be so much fun. I'll even show you who I have on speed dial. ever heard of the M P A A?

just kidding... they're not on my speed dial, but the guy who runs things is. I'll tell him you liked Gigli.

slav,

i've got some koreans trying desperately to hijack some of my domains? any experience? or heard it happen to others?

plus, you remember the other RICK, I just bought one of his flagship domains that I've been eyeing for years. i'll email you if your whois addy is correct.

at this rate my postcount will be at 200 by noon.

seriously though, I'll call a truce because it's not fair that I know who you are but you don't know me. because someday our paths will cross and it's best if there is a bridge there. but you are right, there are a lot of BS'ers in the domain world. I'm not one of them. I dropped over $300k in the past 6 months building my portfolio. and my gf's not too happy...

Her: "do you know how big a diamond you could've bought instead?"
Me: "Yeah, but the domain name is an investment in my future."

yeah, yahoo. sony connect.com, everyone. but now when I call ppl I dont need to explain the concept. no more preaching, just converting. so hard calling them years ago, because they were "WTF are you talking about?", 'that's not possible.." I reserved that way back. god. took long enough for technology to catch up.

now companies understand the concept and they're like: "WOW. ok, lets partner." soon someone is gonna say, can we just buy you out? I thought they'd never ask.

chinese dude? lol oh yeah. cause I couldn't get my "taboo" back. you've got a great memory.

harmony.com, I wish I got it too. amazing. can you imagine traffic especially with eHarmony.com's logo making the "e" hard to see on TV ads.

"other Rick" was selling his "VIP" domain and another one, and I got the other one. I'm building something new but I'm not going to compete with google. I'm going to be the opposite of google. not a search engine, more of a "find" engine. maybe they'll "partner" with me too. pre-ipo stock. if that site flies I'm sending "other rick" and his staff on a vacation for cutting me such a sweet deal considering he bought it so high and tried to get it funding for so long.

did you see dailyblog.com drop the other day? not the best, but not bad. tomorrow/today is: communities.net

i'm surprised you didnt get that VIPlounge domain, it went pretty cheap too

dailyblog and communities, i saw those.. they didnt peak my interests.

>> now companies understand the concept and they're like: "WOW. ok, lets partner."
I wanna partner with Yahoo, just for the bragging rights of having a partnerships with both Google and Yahoo


why are you letting your domains collect dust?? put something on there (like PPC) and make few extra easy $ so you'd least have a bigger buying power.

I wanna partner with Yahoo, just for the bragging rights of having a partnerships with both Google and Yahoo


why are you letting your domains collect dust?? put something on there (like PPC) and make few extra easy $ so you'd least have a bigger buying power.

he said he sold it 2 days earlier. thats what I get for sleeping. i already own vipclub and wanted that viplounge badly. how much did lounge go for? under $10k? do you remember his "O" domain? that's the one I bought. Plus I cleaned out afternic of all their premiums. all in one week.

dailyblog would've been nice to add to my blog collection. sexblog, pornblog, etc.

dust? lol. funny thing about corporate america is sometimes they want domains that aren't tainted, not even launched yet. crazy. but once I finish moving to new house, i'm moving to new servers and setting up everything properly. too many domains that end up "owning" me. lol. I need to talk to you for some specialized advice anyway.

it's good to see you're still doing well. How's your empire? better than ever? still chat with webfather at all? i got invited back to chatboard by someone and they told me to contact him again. i had no idea it was still going strong.

sounds very reasonable. ppl who know what to buy are gonna make still serious money. but I'm sure you can easily lost also a shitload of money.

Hey Taboo! Great information, man. Thanks for the posts. I'm trying to sell off my domains, because they're just costing me money and I'm broke right now anyway

Here's my list at afternic...I have no idea if pricing is way off or what:

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Word of advice. Do not solicite names that bare or resemble some kind of trademark. Let the respective company or person come to you. Always have a plan to "develop" that name. ICANN can be a bitch as I found out before.

Oh and GayMarriage.com expired and reached deletion but I was a couple minutes too late.

Does anyone have a close to full proof way of snatching up expired domain names? One that they'd be willing to share?

make sure never to intentionally reserve well known trademarked names in the first place. or even including them in your domain and trying to sell it. bad idea.

i.e.

Ilovepepsi.com

but sometimes, you find a generic or ordinary domain and have no idea that multiple companies will try to sue you, reverse hijack you for the domain. obviously many companies share the same brands, i.e. Delta (air) and Delta (faucets) but only one can own the domain. so if you're the lucky/unlucky bastard owning a domain like that, you have a few options.

(i don't own delta, example only)

"when I launch my site, I'll link to yours." and add very tactfully "in fact, I'm going to make a link on my front page that says OTHER DELTAs, an entire link list of ALL the companies that have offered to work with us or buy this domain, and give them free traffic, including your company"

What I did was simple. Built a bridge. but more importantly, I also planted a few seeds in their mind:

- I'm open minded and I'm a nice guy
- Other companies want this domain bad enough to buy it
- and I subtlely included them in that group of buyers whether they know it or not.
- but I never offered the name for sale, in fact I've turned down offers. and sometimes this is the most important so you don't get labelled a squatter, etc.

Next you ask for all their contact info so you can reach them when you launch and they'll give you REAL info. At least now you know exactly who you're dealing with and you've begun to build a targetted list of potential suitors for your domain. and its easier to negotiate when you know who they are. what you thought was a small business turns out to be much more some times.

I just bought a domain last month.
Around 5K type-ins a day and quite some traffic from other places.
So far it's been a good investment and I hope to make my money back within 2.5 months.

congrats. I'm not going to ask you how much or what the name was, but I would love to learn how you acquired it. What's your story? Was it for sale on it's own website? Forum? Auction? Dropped? did you make initial contact w/ owner? curious to learn what method you used so we get a feel for what techniques/strategies to use. please share what you can, if you can.

great domain. timely too. re: drops, only way to have a fighting chance is get your backorders in everywhere you can. i listed the sites earlier. learn/research before you use any of them so you know what you're getting into. sometimes I have the exclusive backorders for a domain, and in private auctions as well and still someone else will pick it up thru other drop services or personal scripts. there's many more drop services than I mentioned, I'll put together a fuller list of links later.

Backorder it at both Pool and eNom, then get your wallet out for the auction. Those two are doing the best job right now for catching.

I thought I might have been the "Other" Rick!! lol

Good luck on that "O" domain you bought from us... I hope you develop it into something huge!!!

By the way, put in a good word to Verbal about the rest of our domains we have for sale:
http://www.shortdomains.com/

We still have about 200 domains I believe, looking to sell the rest for about $25k. If there's a way to contact Verbal directly, let me know as well. I also have someone who want to invest money into buying the lot for 25k, but he can't afford the whole amount...

You can find our e-mail address on the web-site. Thanks for the nice words bro.

p.s. VIPlounge.com sold for like $2k on a charity auction we did here on GFY months ago... DIRT CHEAP! Needless to say, I didn't make any money from that auction. lol

You guys run a topnotch operation. it was a pleasure doing business with you. When I launch the big "O", and take it public I promise to give you all pre-ipo shares. If I flip the business to a larger fish I would love to send you, your family and your partner on a nice vacation to thank you for working out a deal for me. I almost lost my girlfriend over that domain. I really am putting lots of hard work into it and perhaps I will contact you because you obviously had the same vision for it. i'm going on a vc roadshow with it in a few months to push it aggressively.

I'm pouring most of my money/time into O right now but I do remember quite a few more that caught my eye. You've got some great leftovers and you gave me a fair price and treated me with respect the whole time. if anyone's reading this. check out their site and see if anything catches your eye. they were quick to transfer the domain and everything went smoothly & flawlessly.

National A1 has one of the best, if not #1 portfolio out there.

besides the ones you see there:

singles.com
teens.com
girls.com
fantasy.com
escorts.com
sextoys.com

they also own:

free.com
friends.com

and lots more like that.

These guys are serious developers and buyers. I know first hand, because once they decided to launch one of their domains in a new industry, they made sure to buy 2 of my domains to make sure no one else had them. gotta love that. i knew who they were when they came to me, but since I had no way of entering that industry then, i sold to reinvest into my own portfolio. not a huge payday for me, but considering that I had less than $50 invested total, they offered me a very fair price under 5fig and wired the next day. we both walked away happy.
