Oh Dear Guys, I hope someone can help me. I'm under attack with auDA complaints against some of the domain names that I have held for years (I have not purchased any domain names in the last 2 years). So far there was 1 earlier in the week and now 19 more. Ironically among the domain names...

I think that list is from the 14th Mar.. its been the same the last few days...

Here is an interesting case of "Client Request Delete" and then a change of mind (?). Registered to same company on Drop Day On another note, I have also found that there are a lot of domains on the drops, well at least a handful on a regular basis, that are registered to companies that...

After a huge day yesterday in terms of dollar value, with around 82 domains registered. Today, there is currently only around 49 domains registered from the drops. Four of the twelve registrants picked up the majority of the domains with the rest of the eight picking up one each. Registrant 1...

Wow, today as at 10:00PM, 106 domain names from today's drops has been registered. Yesterday was around 82. There is the usual happy ones ($200 +/+) to get their dream .com.au domain on Netfeel Domain Name accessair.com.au Registrant ACCESS AIR PTY LTD I have noticed a string of these...

Well, I think @neddy said it best about today's drop on his blog: “yuck”! However, there were still 34 domains purchased as of 8:30PM today Uniregistrar Corp: 1 Domain Web Address Registration: 1 Domain GoDaddy.com, LLC: 3 Domains Netfleet.com.au: 4 Domains Public Domain Registry Pty Ltd: 8...

By my calculations and auDA policy states that the Last Modified reflects updated including renewals, shouldn't this domain have expired several days ago? (i) at the next Expiry Cycle, the domain name will transition from “Registered” to an “Expired Hold” state. This is depicted in the WHOIS...

So that's how the 20/80 rule applies? ;)

In my web dev days, 8 years ago, I got a comment from a long time client I will never forget for the rest of my life. Here is the conversation about an $800 invoice for a FULL dynamic website : Client: Can you make the bill cheaper Me: No, a lot of hours went into creating this site Client: Oh...

I have a feeling the 1000 domains that auDA deleted will drop tomorrow. Be careful which domains you bid on if you don't want to pick one of these up.

Here are some "fun" facts about today's drops Approximately 65 domain names from today's drop where registered by 10:30 pm Still lots of suspicious registrant (admittedly not based on much) are being registered which accounted for a lot of today's regos. Some examples are...

Sale date on Netfeet shows 13/10/2016 koala.com.au Last update on Whois was "18-Oct-2016" and registrar is "Web Address Registration" Not sure why it was listed on Today's sales list in particular.

Hey Guys, I have setup a custom domain watch for registered domains after the drops. Here is the latest report from drops in the last few days: Suspicious registrations (hand reg): bohjass.com.au bennypetsdirect.com.au ludogaming.com.au This poor fellow lost is domain due to auDA misspelled...

I believe the ones with cPanel AutoSSL are a yearly rego and not the 90-day trial, they also auto renew. Well, the free one we received from Medium is certainly a yearly rego.

Just a few days ago, a company I work with opened up a free medium.com account with a personal domain for their blog. Medium provided a free SSL from comodo. I was wondering how Medium could afford an SSL for each free client. This explains it. We needed to create a long string CNAME in our...

Does anyone know if auDA provides a CSV file of expiring domain names or auDA only publish on https://www.auda.org.au/domains/drop-list/. Do the drop services like NetFleet create their own CSV file?

I very kindly told him that consumer awareness is low for gTLDs at this stage. We'll see if he comes back in the near future.

I was talking to a potential buyer for an LLL .com.au domain which was an acronym that is part of his business name and is what they are known by. After a follow-up email a few weeks later I got the following response: "I ended up securing a better three LTR domain name LLL.rentals" (I...

Here's a "joke" I always get a laugh out of from potential buyers from time to time. "Why would I pay you that much when there are plenty of domains still available for free?" On the other hand its a great conversation starter.
