    Expiring Domain Catching

    My business doesn't rely on getting this domain name. It's already up and running, but this domain would be the perfect addition to it. I forgot to add that when I got outbid, I bought the .co domain but not sure that that's much use?

    Expiring Domain Catching

    I previously spent too long thinking about buying a .co.uk domain name for $1k, When I finally decided I should, it had expired. Thinking this was the perfect opportunity to 'catch it' using one of the services, I watched a few people interested in it bid all the way up to about £500. Think I...

    Managed IT Service or one off assistance?

    I have a number of domains registered with guru.co.uk and a few are live/hosted. Sadly, they don't do hosted exchange service. I have hosted exchange, some directly with Microsoft, some with hostinguk, and some with fast host - don't ask! I will likely add another website or two this...

    Has anyone used this escrow service before?

    The listings have now been removed. I've emailed the company that listed them and warned them he's out to scam people. Hopefully he didn't manage to get any money out of anyone and just ended up having to pay the fee to list them,

    Has anyone used this escrow service before?

    He claimed business had been going several years, but domain age is about 6 or 7 months old. When challenged, he said his credit card had declined and godaddy had suspended the account/expired the domain and when hen put new details it it 'reset the clock'. I don't believe this, and...

    Has anyone used this escrow service before?

    I think the usadropshipsolutions is part of the scam too. I recorded the video call I had with him and picked up their email address under payment details. I asked him about it and he said it was the dropshipper. Also what little info on them there is don't look legit either. The payment...

    Has anyone used this escrow service before?

    It's probably the same person! Is he going by the name David Holtzman with you too? The transactions are (kind of) real as I had a friend place an order and it showed both on oscommerce (a legitimate, albeit old system) as well as on PayPal transactions. It's definitely a scam. Either all...

    Has anyone used this escrow service before?

    The more I look at https://greenlightforsite.com/, the more I think the whole thing is a scam. I think I'm being shown a viable business, but the scam is getting me to transfer my money via this 'escrow' service who will then just keep it. Or am I being ultra paranoid?

    Has anyone used this escrow service before?

    Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to pay less in fees, but I thought an Escrow service helped ensure there were no issues in a sale. There's no way they can do that for under a tenner. Surely, that's just a money transfer fee. Anything requiring some human intervention is going to cost a lot more.

    Web3 tld domain name - any benefit for SEO/Branding?

    I've got the one-two.co.uk already, but onetwo.co.uk was taken, which is why I'm thinking one.two might be the perfect alternative.

    Web3 tld domain name - any benefit for SEO/Branding?

    Maybe SEO was the wrong word. But say I was doing PPC, or giving someone the domain name, isn't it easier/catchier to have one.two instead of one-two.co.uk?

    Web3 tld domain name - any benefit for SEO/Branding?

    it's not a .io domain, but https://freename.io/ are allowing me to register a domain that is the perfect combination of two words for this business. so for example, instead of one-two.co.uk I could register one.two

    Web3 tld domain name - any benefit for SEO/Branding?

    I've found a name that I want to register via https://freename.io/ but everything I'm reading seems to indicate it's all to do with blockchain (which I know very little about). I just need to know if I buy/register new.name as an example, can I use that as my main domain for a website (no...
