Hello everyone! It was in July 2020 when I received an offer of $4,000 on BridgeMoney.com (acquired the domain in partnership with Jamie Zoch) which was then revised to $5,750 as the best and final offer.  At that time the BIN was $12,888. I declined. A month later the buyer came up with $9,000. Again the […]

Hello everyone, I’ve been investing in .CO domains since they were launched in 2010. As of today, I’ve now almost 200 .CO domains and since the launch I’ve had a pretty good success selling domains in this extension.

Hello everyone, Many are aware of the ex-registrar Pheenix.com which was at one time a good registrar as well as good at catching dropping domains.

Hello everyone, Like I always share my personal experiences using any domain related products/services, this time I wanted to share about DaaZ. I’ve used their external escrow services for several transactions and overall it’s been a fantastic experience. On every occasion, I was on the buy side.

Hi everyone, I’ve been asked by several fellow friends about the new Afternic NS5/NS6 BIN lander. I thought to share it with everyone else as well if more people are interested to hear my thoughts.
