Shane's Domain Auction Picks for Wednesday March 18th
I’ve been friends with Mike Sullivan for over a decade. He’s a Chicago suburbs guy like I used to be and we shared the same side hustle of domains. Both of us had family and a day jobs and were trying to build a portfolio that would let us have a few extra things.
Talking to him the other day, he mentioned he had started a site called NotRenewing. Essentially, it’s a marketplace where you can list names before you let them expire. Most registrars don’t share any of the expiry auction, so you might as well try and get something for the names, even if it’s a few dollars. Mike set up a great option for that. I haven’t tried it because I don’t really have any expiring names, but certainly worth a try, and kudos to him for trying to create something. (no we didn’t get paid to post this, purely sharing because I like Mike)
I’ve said it before, I think people are going to follow Atom.com’s strategy of splitting expiry auction proceeds. It’s incredibly smart as domain owners are more likely to move their domain to the Atom registrar. When I say domain owners, I mean the domain owners who play the numbers game of thousands or tens of thousands of domains of lesser value. The premium stuff obviously is not going to expire. Or shouldn’t.
Quote of the Day: “The last century belonged to those who mastered energy. The next will belong to those who master intelligence. And intelligence is infinite, but wisdom must guide it. So wherever you are, in a lab, an office or a small classroom, remember this. Every time you choose to learn instead of complain, to create instead of copy, to share instead of hoard, you are adding one more line of code to humanity’s greatest program, the code of progress.” -Jack Ma
