This result sends a huge message to the existing auDA board and CEO. The support for reform is overwhelming.

Brilliant result! Couldn't be happier for Ned and Nicole, and all auDA members for that matter. This is a great achievement. Now we just need a strong replacement for Simon.

For those who aren't members and didn't get the email: "Demand Class Director Simon Johnson today advised auDA that he had decided to resign his Board position, effective immediately. The casual vacancy will be filled in accordance with the usual process outlined in the Constitution." Wonder...

Little update... For the latest round at the Gold Coast we changed the number plates to remove the domain name, therefore leaving space for a stronger logo. It was a huge improvement, especially on TV. We received virtually no increase in traffic over the Bathurst weekend anyway, and only a...

It's great what you've achieved Robert, and I like the idea of the new platform (and have just joined), but wow, quite an introduction! There is a lot negative talk around here at the moment, but that's due to a specific issue, rather than all of us being negative generally. For the record, I...

Yes.

auDA needs to be taken out of the hands of these people. It's a joke the way they are treating something that belongs to all of us. Let's get Ned and Nicole elected to return some transparency and integrity.

You did. You told me you were "all for it". In writing... Not true Ian. We exchanged PMs via DNT last year and spoke on the phone during the elections. Short memory you have... Best of luck though.

He didn't promise me anything, but he did give Ned his word that he wouldn't be applying. Quite clearly his word means very little... The whole process was poor in my opinion. Timelines constantly changed, and different directors gave me different versions of how it all unfolded. From what...

Upgrading to the .com is all good and well for big household names, but I wouldn't recommend it for anyone smaller if their target market is Australia. For Big W and the NAB, everyone knows that they're Australian. But say for my company Trade Risk, I would never run my site on the .com as I...

I don't think they'll be saved just because of the Liberal Party links. I imagine those in power would throw the small players under the bus without a second thought to save themselves. Well done to Ned, Nicole and everyone else who I'm sure have had a hand in getting to this point. My...

After a great deal of thought I have decided not to run for the auDA board in 2017. Whilst I remain passionate about the Australian domain space, my company Trade Risk is going through a very exciting time and needs 100% of my focus right now. I’m really sorry if anyone feels let down by my...

Congrats Anthony, and I couldn't agree more with your above comment. :D

Traffic increase to the website was bugger all over the weekend. Type-ins of tradiesinsurance.com were tiny, and the traffic increase I did get was mostly due to a couple of sponsored posts on FB promoting the sponsorship. One last photo... This was the clearest I've seen from the weekend:

Absolutely. Some people will just Google Trade Risk, but I'm sure many will type the URL. Ha! I actually considered for half a second using it for numberplates.com.au... I have to share another good photo from on track today. I'm definitely not tiring of seeing my logo on the front of every...

Exact match domains used to be all the rage before the Google EMD update a few years back. Whilst they don't give the same SEO boost now, they still have other uses... My company Trade Risk is sponsoring the V8 Ute series at Bathurst this weekend and I've used one of my EMDs instead of our...

Does this count? http://www.domainer.com.au/some-people-cant-be-trusted/

For sure. To be fair, they have since stated that they'll be reimbursing me for it. It's not about the money though, it's about the overall process.
