I Think Someone Should Buy DNForum.com

Posted on 22 December 2016 by Andrei

This much is certain: the forum is going nowhere as long as Adam Dicker is in charge, for obvious reasons. I think pretty much all of us can agree on that.

However, there’s something else a lot of people can agree on: DNForum used to be a decent place for domainers and in fact, it used to have a far better noise to quality ratio than NamePros back in the day.

Eric Borgos

Posted on 17 December 2016 by Andrei

Just saying “Eric Borgos” in the title and nothing else is enough to make it clear the post is about something positive because pretty much everyone can confirm Eric has a positive vibe associated with everything he does. He’s honest, he’s always willing to share his experiences (… and talk about his mistakes as well, not just about the stuff he got right!) and most importantly, he’s a genuinely nice person.

Wealth Management 2.0 Launch Contest: Win an iPhone 7, Conference Passes, Domaining Tools and More!

Posted on 12 December 2016 by Andrei

After investing 3 years of blood, sweat, tears and sanity, I’m finally launching my book and I’m doing it with a bang, by organizing a contest with some genuinely awesome prizes: an iPhone, three Whoisology plans, two annual Efty growth plans, two NamesCon passes, one Domaining Europe package and Escrow.com credit!

My book is called “Wealth Management 2.0”, with the exact title being “Wealth Management 2.0: Financial Education for Internet Professionals” and as the name suggests, it’s the only book out there which teaches those who make money online how to manage that money: domainers, freelancers, online entrepreneurs, Internet marketers, bitcoin investors and the list could go on and on.

I always found it ridiculous that despite there being millions upon millions of people who make money on the Internet in one way or another, nobody thought about writing a book that teaches them how to make smart financial decisions. Since I’m an economist as well as someone who has been making money online since pretty much forever, I’ve decided I’m in a great position to fill this void.

Here we are, three years later and Wealth Management 2.0 is *finally* ready for the spotlight. I’ve soft launched it a couple of months ago but the “official” launch is this week. To celebrate the launch, together with some very awesome and generous sponsors, I’m organizing a contest with some extremely juicy prizes:

1) an iPhone 7 (ridiculously awesome phone) from Uniregistry

2) two NamesCon passes ($799 each)

3) three $300/year Whoisology plans

4) one Domaining Europe ticket (650 EUR value)

5) $250 in Escrow.com credit

6) two annual Efty Growth plans

7) $100 in credit that can be used for registrations as well as renewals from 101Domain

These are all genuinely awesome prizes and I’d like to thank all 7 sponsors for making this contest possible. I mean I’d love to win any of them (unfortunately, I can’t, with me being the contest organizer and everything), so that right there is a sign that we’re talking about really juicy prizes!

How will things work?

Simple.

The contest will take place as of today and until Sunday.

I will reward people for various actions with chances to win. After the week is over, I will go “old school” and for each chance to win that you have, I’ll place a piece of paper with your name on it in a big bowl and bam, I’ll select the lucky winner. Old school.

The actions I’ll be rewarding you for are:

1) Buying the book
2) Tweeting about the book
3) Liking a Facebook post about the book and sharing that post
4) Placing a banner on your website
5) Blogging about the book

Let’s start with… the beginning, buying the book 🙂

It can be bought on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iBooks as well as Kobo and as strange as it may seem, I’m going to give people more chances at winning if you buy it on Barnes & Noble or iBooks. This is because I need more of an initial push on those two platforms, so I’ll be rewarding those who buy there with two times more chances.

To buy it on Barnes & Noble, use the following link:

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/wealth-management-20-andrei-polgar/1124435282?ean=2940153328942

To buy it on iBooks, use the Apple app or the following link:

https://itun.es/us/wYSveb.l

Now, of course, buying it on Amazon or Kobo would also help a lot. Not as much as buying it on Barnes & Noble or iBooks but still, a lot.

To buy Wealth Management 2.0 on Amazon, use the following link:

https://www.amazon.com/Wealth-Management-2-0-Financial-Professionals-ebook/dp/B01I1WA2BK

And, finally, use the following link to buy Wealth Management 2.0 on Kobo:

https://www.kobo.com/ww/en/ebook/wealth-management-2-0

To prove that you bought it, simply send a screenshot to contest@domainingtips.com.

Alright then, here’s what you’ll be receiving by:

1.1) Buying Wealth Management 2.0 on Barnes & Noble or iBooks – 6 chances to win

1.2) Buying Wealth Management 2.0 on Amazon or Kobo – 3 chances to win

Furthermore, I’ll also reward you if you recommend the book to friends/contacts and they end up buying it (once again, a screenshot sent to contest@domainingtips.com is all of the proof I need):

1.3) Someone you recommend the book to buys the book on Barnes & Noble or iBooks – 4 chances to win (screenshot from that person required)

1.4) Someone you recommend the book to buys it on Amazon or Kobo – 2 chances to win (screenshot required)

Next, I’ll be rewarding people for tweeting about the book and just like when buying the book, simply send me an email at contest@domainingtips.com with a link or screenshot. In the tweet, you have to mention the WealthManagement2.com site (the book’s official site) and preferably let people know that the price has been reduced to just $2.99, only until Sunday.

Here’s what you’ll be receiving:

2.1) Tweet if you have between 50 and 100 followers – 1 chance to win
2.2) Tweet if you have between 101 and 500 followers – 2 chances to win
2.3) Tweet if you have between 501 and 1,000 followers – 3 chances to win
2.4) Tweet if you have between 1,001 – 2,500 followers – 4 chances to win
2.5) Tweet if you have over 2,500 followers – 5 chances to win

Next, I’ll reward you guys if you:

3.1) Like WealthManagement2.com on Facebook – 1 chance to win (one time per person)
3.2) Write a Facebook post about my book – 2 chances to win (one time per person)
3.3) If the Facebook post receives more than 5 likes, I’ll reward you with 1 more chance to win
3.4) If the Facebook post receives more than 10 likes, I’ll reward you with 2 chances to win
3.5) If the Facebook post receives more than 25 likes, I’ll reward you with 3 chances to win
3.6) If the Facebook post receives more than 50 likes, I’ll reward you with 4 chances to win
3.7) If the Facebook post receives more than 100 likes, I’ll reward you with 5 chances to win

… as usual, simply let me know by sending an email to contest@domainingtips.com.

Those of you who run websites that you think would be a good fit for promoting my book (websites visited by domainers, freelancers, online entrepreneurs, Internet marketers, bitcoin/crypto investors or anyone else who is among my target audience) will be rewarded if you place a banner or *large* above the fold text link which should take people to WealthManagement2.com. The text of the banner or link should be “Learn to Invest the Money You Make Online!” and again, it should point to WealthManagement2.com. Everything else is up to you, just make sure to place the banner or text link somewhere very visible above the fold:

4.1) Post a banner on your website if it has less than 1,000 monthly visits – 1 chance to win
4.2) Post a banner on your website if it has 1,001 – 2,500 monthly visits – 2 chances to win
4.3) Post a banner on your website if it has 2,501 – 5,000 monthly visits – 3 chances to win
4.4) Post a banner on your website if it has 5,000 – 10,000 monthly visits – 4 chances to win
4.5) Post a banner on your website if it has over 10,000 monthly visits – 5 chances to win

… please note that I’ll need a screenshot of your analytics as proof of traffic, it should be sent to contest@domainingtips.com.

The same way, you can receive chances to win by blogging about the book:

5.1) Blog post about the book if your blog has less than 1,000 monthly visits – 1 chance to win
5.2) Blog post about the book if your blog has 1,001 – 2,500 monthly visits – 2 chances to win
5.3) Blog post about the book if your blog has 2,501 – 5,000 monthly visits – 3 chances to win
5.4) Blog post about the book if your blog has 5,001 – 10,000 monthly visits – 4 chances to win
5.5) Blog post about the book if your blow has over 10,000 monthly visits – 5 chances to win

… as usual, email me the link, contest@domainingtips.com and don’t forget to include the traffic proof screenshot.

That’s pretty much it.

As mentioned earlier on, the contest starts today and will end on Sunday. Submissions sent after Sunday will *not* be taken into consideration. I will be picking the winners within 7 days after the contest is over, will do my best to make it happen as quickly as possible.

There’s nothing else left for me to do except wish all of you good luck and thank you as well as the contest’s sponsors (Uniregistry, NamesCon, Whoisology, Domaining Europe, Escrow.com, Efty and 101Domain) for your help: let’s do this!

Did You Download the MediaOptions .Com Strategies Book?

Posted on 10 December 2016 by Andrei

A lot of times, domainers find themselves in the position of having to “teach” end users why paying a premium for an awesome domain is worth it. Believe it or not, domainers aren’t always very good at explaining such things in a way that comes across as professional.
