Whois NameMedia Inc? NameMedia owns one of the largest domain portfolios on the net. They are the central nervous system and the brains behind BuyDomains.com a domain sales platform, Afternic.com a huge domain auction house and brokerage (DLS) as well as ActiveAudience.com a domain monetization platform.

NameMedia Inc. AKA “BuyDomains.com” is on the prowl for domains, lots of them. In recent months they have been posting to the masses on forums such as NamePros and DNF in search of domain portfolios to acquire. I first noticed their calling to buy domains in a thread at NamePros forum two months ago. I responded via email as they requested with a short list of a several four letter .coms and four letter .nets. and a couple nice one word domains just to see what kind of interest they may have. Now, before I sent off this email I already had a preconception of NameMedia’s buying strategies. A fellow domainer friend of mine once referred to them as the “low ball kings”. Hearing this I was not expecting a positive response. (more…)

Yes I said it, midFlux.com is just too cheap!!! I will get back to that comment in a little bit. For now though I want to follow up on an offer midFlux and I did two weeks ago “5 Free Domain Name Appraisals”. The title says it all, midFlux allowed me to give out 5 free appraisals to my readers. The response was great, we had 17 comments with a bunch of domain names for review. Below is a list of domain names selected, you can also click on them to view the appraisal itself. Just out of curiosity I wanted to compare them to a free service offered by estibot.com.

I was recently speaking to fellow domainer Evan, owner of HuntingMoon.com.  We talked about business in general and our current ventures.  Evan mentioned a pretty sticky project so of course I was curious.

NetGum.com, the newest domainer forum launched last week.  The main question I had was why or how did he come up with that name.  The answer was simple but to the point, “communities bring people together”.  I couldn’t agree more with this, I am personally a member of several forums and look to my fellow members as family.  Don’t get me wrong, some of them are looked at as evil step brothers and sisters but the majority are good people.

Evan said NetGum.com is a FREE Domaining, SEO and Affiliate Marketing community with FREE hosted blogs.  He also said they offer a relaxed atmosphere and unique forum structure with attention to short domains.

Check it out for yourselves, visit NetGum.com and post your comments here.
