Good News About the Upcoming UnstoppableDomains.com Price Hikes

I’m pleased to announce that the price hikes that are coming as of December 1 will be super mild, with $5.99 transfers and new registrations for Domainer Club members and Five Dollar Friday basically remaining Five Dollar Friday for everyone, except that prices will go from $5 to $5.99… not exactly a major change! More specifically, here’s what you can expect: Domain transfer prices for Domainer Club members will go up, but only from $5.55…

UnstoppableDomains $5.55 Transfers Going Away on December 1

For the time being, it’s still possible to transfer up to 1,800 (!) domains at just $5.55 but as they’ve been mentioning for a couple of weeks, that deal will be going away on December 1. Understandable, given the fact that nobody has ever offered something like this for extended periods of time. Again, and I’ve been doing this for MANY years: steep discounts on transfers like this deal existing for extended periods of time…

Huge Domain Portfolio Liquidation

Things have been a tad hectic over here, will keep things short and simple: a portfolio with x,xxx domains is being liquidated. Solid “bread and butter” inventory with a decent and consistent end user STR , names that actually sell to end users. But life is life and a real estate move is on the horizon, so the names are being liquidated at ultra-low prices, preferably in bulk but also individually. Not sharing them here…

Black Monday Mayhem… Anyone Still Alive?

Super collapse on the horizon! 1987 all over again! OMG, everyone panic! I literally tried to stay away from X all weekend because in all honesty, there’s only so much sensationalism I can stomach. It literally seemed and still seems like all pundits have everything figured out. That Monday will come with a humongous 1987-like crash (click HERE for a one minute animation about what happened in 1987), it was final: the market will come…

Domain Investing Is Random

… or how I sold a domain to an end user less than a month after an investor passed on a $xx each 20-domain package due to him refusing to budge an extra $5 per domain. He saw the list on DadDomains.com and emailed me (deals@daddomains.com in this case) to negotiate further. Not judging, I respect the hustle. However, had he just bought instead, he would have recouped his entire investment plus profit (!) after…

Today’s Market Crashes and Why I Hate Most Econ/Finance Influencers

Today, we witnessed a significant crash across markets, a phenomenon that tends to evoke a spectrum of reactions from seasoned investors to novice market participants. As an economist who thinks about these things all day and not just when social media algos tell me to, I feel compelled to address the emotional turbulence and the cacophony of opinions flooding social media platforms, especially the doom and gloom narratives perpetuated by TikTok gurus. While it’s crucial…

Domaining Isn’t the Gold Mine Beginners Think It Is

Domaining has long been heralded as a modern gold rush, a digital frontier where savvy investors can turn a modest investment into a fortune. Stories of early adopters striking it rich by securing and flipping valuable domain names fuel this perception. However, the unpleasant truth that many domain name investors need to confront is that this industry is fraught with challenges and pitfalls that can easily turn a promising investment into a costly mistake. The…
