Alright guys, let’s analyze the 3 “post boom” years (2009, 2010 and 2011) with portfolio size as our main focus. To simplify everything, we have three months to put under the microscope (May 2009, May 2010 and May 2011) and just one question: how many domains did you own? In my case: May 2009 < May 2010 = May 2011. In other words, I owned more domains in May 2010 than in May 2009 and the size of my portfolio in May 2011 was pretty much identical to that of May 2010. What about you?

Show Me Your… Domaining Laptops ;)
Posted on 08 May 2011 by Andrei
I have one laptop, three desktops and a netbook at the moment of writing but my laptop is trying to get the message across that it’s retirement time, so I’m going to buy a new one next week.

Do You Reply to Lowball Offers?
Posted on 06 April 2011 by Andrei
Some domainers consider that replying to lowball offers is a waste of time, what do you guys think? As far as I’m concerned, my gut feeling has free reign. If the lowball offer has a “clueless end user worth educating” vibe, then I copy/paste a short “domain values 101” template I put together a long time ago but on the other hand, if the email comes from let’s say “highschoolscotty1993@yahoo.com” and contains a $10 offer, replying would obviously be a waste of time.

At first I thought Francois was simply testing something but I checked out his advertising page and it seems that he is no longer accepting ads (aside from sponsored headlines and menu listings). Let’s help him out with some feedback:
What Topics Would You Like Me to Cover?
Posted on 14 November 2009 by Andrei
I’ve received a LOT of emails from people who had development-related questions and it’s fairly obvious that there’s quite a bit of demand for posts written from the perspective of someone who develops sites for a living.
Interested in Launching a Forum – Decent Budget
Posted on 30 October 2009 by Andrei
Join the brainstorming fun and help me out. What don’t you like about the existing domaining forums? Too much noise? What would you like me to do differently? What about the launch, any suggestions? Maybe a contest with HUGE prizes (three winners, $5,000/$3,000/$2,000 and then lots of other stuff)?
