    How DID Lensman get the domain name, Adult.com???

    I heard he won it in a thumb wresting tournament.










    I could be wrong?

                        now that would be an investment, win a thumb wrestling match and get adult.com

                                        it depends if you are talking about type ins only or the whole branding possibility

                                        i would just buy it for the type in traffic and have holidays till the end of my life, for lensman the branding was probably more important, although I am still not sure if it's worth to pay more than a million to brand an affiliate program with a good domain, i mean look at all the other programs, they have average names, but some of them are bigger than adult.com

                                        Personally i think the best branding and promotion lensman gets nowadays for his programs comes from GFY...

                                        again, just my 2 cents

                                          yeah, I was thinking adult.com could make money on anything.

                                                              I knew the owner of adult.com - and he was happy with the deal he got. He had it for years, and held onto it until he got the right deal - good for him.

                                                                This is entirely subjective (domain value). While I don't know all the dollars and cents of the deal (confidentiality), I was at the former owner of adult.com's house a few days after he cut his deal with lensman - and he was definately not hurting about it. He'd been approached many times over the years regarding the sale of the domain, and this was the deal he finally took.

                                                                I'm sure he came out well, well ahead of his 35 dollar initial investment.

While I don't know all the dollars and cents of the deal (confidentiality), I was at the former owner of adult.com's house a few days after he cut his deal with lensman - and he was definately not hurting about it. He'd been approached many times over the years regarding the sale of the domain, and this was the deal he finally took.

                                                                                          I'm sure he came out well, well ahead of his 35 dollar initial investment.

The original owner got a deal that he was comfortable with and he was and is not an idiot about biz at all. In fact, he is one of the most intelligent people I have run across in the adult industry.

                                                                                            i would just buy it for the type in traffic and have holidays till the end of my life, for lensman the branding was probably more important, although I am still not sure if it's worth to pay more than a million to brand an affiliate program with a good domain, i mean look at all the other programs, they have average names, but some of them are bigger than adult.com

                                                                                            Personally i think the best branding and promotion lensman gets nowadays for his programs comes from GFY...

The original owner got a deal that he was comfortable with and he was and is not an idiot about biz at all. In fact, he is one of the most intelligent people I have run across in the adult industry.
