“And I hate to be the bubble-popping realist, but when talking about successful sites, you talk in 100,000+ unique visitors a day. No domain comes even close to that.”

Ahmed,

I’m afraid you are VERY WRONG about no domain doing 100,000+ uniques a day.

Thanks for the “livly’ dicussion. We seem to look at the business of domains and internt search a bit differntly…which is ok…if everyone agreed, it would be pretty boring.

I wish everyone much success…in whatever route you decide to take, regarding domain names and/or Internet search, PPC etc…

The next 1-4 years should be some of the wildest times for both…and I think I will enjoy watching it ‘unfold’…no matter what diection it takes.

Peace!
Dan

Adam…Read my post!

If I was “bashing” anyone…I was BASHING DOMAIN ASSET HOLDER’s! (me included)

Are you kidding me…

Why would I bash ‘Google’ as a business model…or PPC providers…Thay have made Million’s and BILLION’s with their business model(s)?…using other people assets to make money…why would I be bashing this? I did not. Best 21 century business models I know of.

Its great work…if you can get it!

That said…

ALL MY points…are still just as valid.

I do not know what else to say…”if all you got out of my post is that I was “bashing” Google or anyone else…you missed everything I was trying to say.

Which was…basiclly…think for yourself…and do not just repeat a bunch of drible…some Search engine or domain name “Guru” said.

Adam… ROCK ON!

Now you have me “Bashing” people or companies.

And you have/had me saying that my point(s) or view would be “easy” and would happen “overnight”.

Which I never posted….in one of my post.

___

“Rock On”…

By your post…You have “simple” thing about domains and the Internt figured out.

I sure do not want to be the that sends…even…the slighest “ripple” through your pond.

Be good…and best wishes!
Dan

Everyone is fair game to me…

You and a lot of domain folks…are making 1000+ times more than I am…right now. ( no worries from me) . Like I said…I am close to being “retarded”…Not quite there yet…I am not making a “joke” about this ( I have a disabled brother I take care of…and maybe we are both headed for the scap heap)…Just suggesting…you think “outside the bun” (JBOX)

You know I am a BIG “FS” fan…He is starting to go to the web 2.0 thing…and his kids…kids..kids…kids… are going to enjoy the “fruits of his labor…even if he just keeps doing what he is doing. ( parking..before Web 2.0) He has no worrys…

Which, if you know me….”FS” is a millions of light years away from anything I could accomplished on my own. (right now)

But… instead of just “living” IN the Cayman Islands…he could own the whole F%^%&ing Island…YEA the whole…&&^%$$ Place!]

It just takes a little “abstact” thought”…not even “abstract”…It just takes a “little refection” on the industry.

No reason for you or “FS” to even acknowledge my post.

I am not a smartest person in a ” 12 by 12″ FOOT CELL…

And to “over-throw” Google 100% is never going to happen. (you can make living for a life time with Google)

BUT…

If you…”over throw’ Google… 3% – 40%… just from be an idea…. it might be an OK idea. ( Talking BILLION’s)

Realistically…DOMAIN OWNERS within three years…you/we could be the # 2 Internet navigation property in the world…within 3-4 years…be the #1 Internet property in the world…and to do so…would be pretty cheap…not “Easy” over “overnight”…but what I think I or someone else could do in four years (regaring internet serach)…crush Google. ( and I am not one too “over-state” THINGS)

CRUSH!…Oh but it’s Google and that would/could/should not happen…it will happen…do to the FACT that the Internet is still FREE….you can do .,..and make up any mother F*&^%ing rules you want.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!…More Importantly…MAY THE PEOPLE OF THE USA…BLESS GOD!.. BECAUSE …He has already bless us…more than we ever DESERVE.

But I “digress”…

But thats OK… In case you have not look lately…Interrnet search…IS JUST A STEPPPING STONE FOR GOOGLE.

They want to be the next coming of…MS…They do not give a ‘fuck ‘who is going take them down as Internet Search king…they just want enought time…to turn themself into a “microsoft”…a software company…BEFORE YOU DECIDE YOU DON’T NEED THEM ANY MORE.

ALL I am saying is…lets head the off at the pass…you have seen a western movie before?

What I need you to “think about” is..,

The Internet is just like….Insurance and Banks…BEFORE…any type of “regulations”

Think about it…Insurance….was a “racket” (extortion) before…any laws.

Think about it… Banking….was….Called “Loan Sharking”…before any laws.

___

I am just saying…while there’s no laws and nothing to prevent a couple of people….CHANGING THE “MONTHER FUC&^*ING game.

WHY NOT CHANGE THE RULES? Whose going to stop…. The #1 controller of the Internet….DOMAIN OWNERS???????????

That’s my point….and it’s about 25 – 50 BILLION dollars a year POINT I am trying to make. (it’s actually more…I just did want to scare off anyone in this thread…by over stating anything…lOL )

Peace!
Dan

Nothing wrong with the current system….If you think your getting a fair shake. If you think your getting a fair shake or better than a fair shake…”Rock On”.

You will do just fine and nothing wrong with followiing rules set by someome esle.

“”"They took 10 years to build what they have. You can’t unseat that overnight.”"”

Again Adam,

Some how you keep reading “easy” and “overnight” into everything I post…which I have never posted. Your distoring…my point(s)

Peace!
Dan

Exactly!

Now we seem to be getting somewere.

Why?

Why invest 100′s of miilions of dollars into assets that comtrol the whole internet…and then give that same control over to someone else for FREE and then let them set a bunch of rules…severlly limiting the value of your assets…and PAY them for doing this to you?

If you control the assets that control the Internet…why give that control over to Google?

Because they had a good idea 10 years ago?

Internet navagation…does NOT have to be what it is today…because Google or someone else says…thats how it is. And its not going to be this way in the future. Because people are just to smart to be Googles and Yahoos bitch for the next 20+ years.

Peace!
Dan

I am not retarded… Challenged a bit…yes…LOL

I undersatand this(your point)…and what I am telling you…Its 100% backwords….its reality (right now)Been looking and watching and “in the game” for a long time.

“”"If it’s soooooooo easy to do why has no company stepped up to the plate. 100s of millions put into the domain industry in the last few years and no one is stepping up to the plate to take on that task.”"”

I did not say it is/would be easy…nothing in life worth doing is.

Did I say… is/would be easy? Please point this out to me. Hard…yes…but easier than you would think.

All I have been saying IS, before you get all settle in for the next 20+ years…Bowing down to Google ever day or a parking company….Think why…when I hold all the cards…I am the one bending over?

Think what that means… And think as a owner of domain assets…WHY!

Thats all…

Is/will not be easy to change…but its going to change…just do not want to see people “think” they are on the “leading edge”…when the fact is they are just Googles ‘bitch’…without any concept of what, why and how… the internet should be navigated.

If you had a normal “asset” worth $1 million…you would not pay a 15%-30% fee to someone else that is going to help or show how you to make money with it…WHEN YOU DO NOT NEED THEM…would you?

Hey, GOD BLESS YOU…If you want to be an “affiliate” of Googles for the next 20+ years….you will Make all kinds of money…have a great time…nothing wrong with it.

BUT at the end of the day…your just an “affiliate” of another company…And the whole time..They should have been YOUR affiliate.

Peace!
Dan
