    Have You Used NameJet ?

    Yes I've used it in the past. The results vary. It's not like it used to be. The "plenty of reg" thing is just for time considerations as they dont want things to expire during the sales process. They also want control of the name to ensure it goes through. Maybe its not for you if you don't...

    auDA casual board vacancy

    I will do everything I can to ensure this (much needed) constitutional change happens. Members were loud and clear at the SGM and I suspect will be even louder at the coming AGM.

    Thanks DNT

    Thanks to all the DNT members who attended the SGM. It's good to catch up with some familiar faces and meet new members. For those that couldn't attend or missed out on part of the livestream, I'd like to make a few points: auDA is a membership based organisation (whether some people like it or...

    AUDA membership made easy

    Paul. That's just not true. Go and read my submissions over the years: 2009-2010 AGM Minutes https://www.auda.org.au/about-auda/our-org/agm/2010/agm/ "Simon Johnson queried the Board’s view on travel expenses, in the 2009- 10 Accounts" "Simon Johnson asked how auDA maintains the integrity, of...

    Direct registrations are happening

    For those that haven't seen my comments here: http://www.dnjournal.com/archive/lowdown/2016/dailyposts/20160418.htm As most of you know: I represent Demand Class and therefore DNTrade has a "seat at the table". I don't own or have an interest in a Registrar, Registry etc.. I’m very mindful...

    A new drop catcher

    *If* there was another drop catcher (hypothetically of course)... what would it take to move you to that platform? Looking into my crystal ball ;) I see it on the horizon. Transparent bids. Low COR costs. Low renewal fees. Interested to hear some thoughts on this.

    Draft recommendations from the 2015 Names Policy Panel

    Hi Everyone, While I'm an auDA Board member, I'm also a member of DNT. It's no secret that domain name investors voted for me at the last election. So..... let me assure you of something. You have a voice at the table. Unlike other people, I don't have a financial interest in a Registrar. I'm...

    domain registration statistics

    Hi Pat, I know what you are trying to say. I'm just telling you that its been done before in a very visual way. Here's a video of parking trends back in 2010. As an example, it shows graphs and tables with domains in/out. Best of luck with your venture. Kind regards, Simon
