The Big Bang Moment for Domain Investing - How the 1st TRAFFIC Conference Ignited a New Industry 20 Years Ago

In October of 2004 the historic first domain conference in a game changing series of TRAFFIC shows was staged at the Delray Beach Marriott in Florida. When it was over, the headline for our review of the first ever major event for domain investors and the small number of service providers that existed at that time was "Successful Trade Show Heralds the Start of a New Era For the Domain Industry" - and that is exactly what TRAFFIC 2024 did. 

That event was the start of a 10-year run of 28 shows that spread from Delray Beach across the United States, then internationally. TRAFFIC was also the spark that ignited a constellation of new conferences that sprouted after that first show proved the concept could work. On the 20th anniversary of its launch, we took a look back at that seminal event and how it proved to be the seed from which the domain investment industry and community we have today sprouted.   Full Story Here

With over 3 million residents already in its metropolitan area, Dubai is still one of the world's fastest growing cities. After just two events, the city's first major domain conference, Domain Days Dubai (DDD) looks to be on a meteoric growth track too. After a very promising launch last year, DDD staged its second annual event November 5-6, 2024 at the Marriott Resort Palm Jumeirah and everything about this one was bigger and better. 

Tickets sold out well in advance and sponsorships doubled. While Founder Munir Badr created DDD to put the Middle East & Africa region (MEA) in the spotlight, attendees from around the world, who know a growing market when they see one, have also descended on Dubai.   Full Story Here

Kate Buckley has been lighting up domain sales charts with top tier transitions for over 25 years now. In 2018, we published an in depth cover story about the prolific domain broker and consultant that, even now, remains one of our most frequently visited articles. While we covered a lot of ground in that piece, going all the way back to the 9th generation Kentuckian's birth, everyone knew there would be much more to write about Kate in the years ahead. 

With the arrival of Defining.com, a full service domain brokerage and branding agency that she recently launched with new partner, veteran branding expert Todd Henderson, this was clearly the time to update the Kate chronicles.
