The Lowdown



Jan. 18, 2008 Post

Here's the The Lowdown from DNJournal.com! Updated daily to fill you in on the latest buzz going around the domain name industry!

Compiled by Ron Jackson (Editor/Publisher)

 

I'll be heading out for Los Angeles tomorrow morning to get settled in for the DOMAINfest Global conference that runs Monday through Wednesday (Jan. 21-23) at the Renaissance 

Hotel in Hollywood. Before these trips I always gather as much reading material as possible so I can get caught up during the long coast-to-coast flight from our Florida base. Just downloaded a two-part interview with Michael and David Castello from SimplyGeo.com that I know will be a worthwhile read. Michael and David (who plan to be at DOMAINfest) are major proponents of domain development and always have a lot of great tips for people interested in building real businesses on their domain names. The two halves of their interview are here: Part 1 and Part 2.

There are a lot of very sharp guys and gals operating in the geo domain space where the Castello brothers have prospered with PalmSprings.com, Nashville.com and several other gems. Our upcoming February Cover Story will be about another giant in the geo field - Dan Pulcrano - who owns the .com domains for 20 of the 30 largest cities in America including LosAngeles.com, SanFrancisco.com and Dallas.com to name just a few. I just checked out LosAngeles.com again today in preparation for my LA trip. Dan and his team at Boulevards New Media have done a great job with that site and I am sure you will enjoy reading about how he built his new media empire.

Another DOMAINfest note; the complete catalog for the two-day SnapNames Live auction at the show Jan. 22-23  has just been released. You can download the inventory list here

There won't be much downtime at the DOMAINfest conference but I'll try to break away from the action to post a daily Lowdown item from the show starting Monday. Of course we will also publish the definitive conference review soon after I get back. Looks like they've put together a fabulous event. Looking forward to seeing many of you there next week and/or in Las Vegas next month for the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. West 2008 conference at the Venetian Hotel Feb. 18-21.
