    Geo Domain/s New UK domain auction marketplace – NameBid.co.uk

    How are you making money with no fees to buyers or sellers? If you want investors to invest their time into your service you have to reassure them you will be around tomorrow and a no profit business scenario might prevent people from putting in the effort.

    Tool What if we bring domain names to life? DNoff.com as an example

    I'll give you a word of caution here... I used to be a big fan of Logos for my domains but ended up removing them all after I found out I lost a big sale. The client came in with a vision for my domain name and I completely derailed it with my vision/logo. That got the client thinking maybe...

    New domain portfolio site

    Been thinking about it, maybe just leave it as it is and add in grey under your search View all Domains For Sale Then default it to A-Z Kind of makes sense right under the search bar and gives it higher exposure

    New domain portfolio site

    Nice site but I have two suggestions... 1. First thing I look for is A-Z Domain Listings and it took me a few moments to find, I would Bold it if it were my site. 2. A-Z listings - Adult names come up first - I would put a * or ~ at the front and move them to the end of the list. It might...

    [Poll] Do you think Flip.uk will be closed on Oct 27?

    Yes, now that you mention it I do remember that. Again, ironic though that he did not sell his 3 sites through his digital scrapyard instead of shutting them down. Not judging or anything just mentioning that it is ironic.

    [minor update] animated gif avatars - activated

    [minor update] animated gif avatars - activated

    The mobile navigation is a great concept but you are using up valuable screen real estate for 4 links that stay pinned at the bottom. That might not seem like an issue depending on how you are viewing it but for smaller screens like some of the smaller apple phones screen real estate is...

    [sidebar update] Latest comments widget moved up

    We place ours at the top as well but changed it from Newest POSTS to Newst THREADS (which we call topics). Since the NEW POST button is right above it already shows all new posts but there is no real quick way if someone wants to quickly see all New Threads. Check it out at DN.ca to see how it...
