I’m still busily multi-tasking… domaining, answering questions, editing videos.

This video is an interview of Sam Aidun, Director of Client Relations at the TrafficZ.com.

In case you’ve not heard of TrafficZ.com, they are innovators in cutting edge technologies for domainers. You should check them out.

This is a great video because we discuss the basics of domain name parking.

Hope you enjoy it.

I had a chance to conduct several awesome video interviews and am in the process of editing and uploading them to youtube.

Here’s Part 1 of a brainstorming session I had with legendary internet marketing expert, Jonathan Mizel. It’s too bad we didn’t have a reality TV crew following us around (that’s a great idea for someone to do at one of these conferences) because it seemed we had new insights every few minutes.

I think it was smart to break the sale into 2 days. But, it might have been smarter to shorten the name list.

I noticed a significant decrease in the crowd after about the first hour and a half.

Surprising sales: MintCoins.com for $15,000;
JobFacts.com for $7,500.

A smart sale: the reserve price on ForexGuides.com was $1.00. It ended up selling for $4,000.

I shot some video of the auction and will post it when I return home.

I also shot an interview between Jonathan Mizel and I on domaining and Moniker.com Vice Presisdent Victor Pitts on Domain Name Valuation and Auction acceptance. I’ll get those posted as soon as I can.

Stay Safe.

Phil
