Was just checking LinkedIn, and saw Elliot Silver has posted this article on the upcoming auction of Holiday.com

Worth having a look at the auction site too - BreatheLuxury

I hope the auction goes well - if it does, it should bolster the value of Holiday.com.au.

You would think that the auctioneer of Holiday dot com would double check for any typos on their webpage.

Who can spot the error? Hint: it is quite "big".

Relatively easy to spot with your hint. I wonder whether I would have picked it up otherwise.

Whether or not it'll affect the outcome of the auction is debatable

findtim will never pick it up!

And I'm sure the typo won't affect the outcome of the auction - however you'd think that they'd want to get it right when they are advertising a prestigious cyber property.

You would have thought a potential $21 Million sale would warrant some better copywriting. The wording in general is pretty average

"where better then...."
Another mistake, not Ned's original typo. Other grammatical errors. Looks like they may have paid per comma

I do agree, I'd personally want it spot on!

An article in News.com.au today highlights the value of domain names (dot com in this instance).

Opening para is a good one - and it makes for another "sales aid" to bookmark.

DOMAIN names that are memorable and search-engine friendly are branding gold, which is why companies scrap over the rights to own them, sending their value into the mega millions.

Holiday.com gets another good mention.
