Uniregistry Tells Customers They Will Be Rolling Out an
"Innovative New Domain Marketplace" Soon
+ THE Domain Conference Offers a Discount &
We Step Up to the Brand.Bar!
|
Uniregistry
sent a letter to clients Thursday
thanking them for helping the new
registrar founded by Frank
Schilling reach over 800,000
registrations in the company's 1st
year (Uniregistry just celebrated
their 1-year anniversary March 19,
2015).

There
was also an interesting bit of news
in the letter - a line that said,
"We
have some exciting new features in
store for the coming year, including
the Uniregistry Market.
Be on the lookout in the
coming weeks for more information
about how to take advantage of this
innovative marketplace to buy and
sell domains." As most of
you know Uniregistry's sister
company, DomainNameSales.com,
is already one of the most powerful
domain sales platforms in the
industry, so it will be interesting
to see how the upcoming Uniregistry
Market will fit into the ever
growing Schilling ecosystem of
domain services.

A
couple of other notes as we
head into the Easter
and Passover holiday
weekend. THE
Domain Conference,
the new event that Howard,
Barbara and Ray Neu will
be staging in Fort
Lauderdale in September,
has a nice little |
holiday
gift for those who want to
attend the show without
breaking the bank. From now
through Easter Sunday, you can
register
for $399 ($100 off the
normal rate) by entering the
special promo code - TDC15
- in the Promo Code box.
While
you are on the site you can
also get a great rate on rooms
at the conference venue. They
start at just $109 a
night for the event that runs September
26-29 at the beautiful Hyatt
Regency Pier Sixty-Six Hotel. |

We
also wanted to let you know
about a new hour-long
interview that my wife Diana
and I just did with Brand.Bar
Founder Angela St. Julien,
in the latest of her series of
Happy Hour Chats (it's
the first time Diana and I
have been interviewed
together). The shows are done
live (ours was at 4pm
yesterday) but are also
recorded so you can check them
out any time you like.
Yesterday's show can be seen here.
Angela,
whom we had the pleasure of
meeting for the first time at
the NamesCon 2015
conference in Las Vegas
this past January, is a
newcomer to the industry who
has come up with an
interesting concept with her
interview series. They are
held on the Go to Meeting
platform so anyone can
log in when they are live and
ask questions of their own.
She had guests from as far
away as New Zealand on
Thursday's show. |

In
addition to the usual topics
like domain buying, selling
and monetization, Angela keeps
things fresh by
exploring other areas of
concern to industry newcomers
and veterans alike - like how
do you explain to spouses,
relatives and friends exactly what
it is you do! That was one
of the many subjects Diana and
I tackled in a fast moving
hour that we think you will
enjoy. |
