A year ago I bought the domain Yachts.com for $350,000 even though I know nothing about boats and had no specific plan for the site. I posted the crazy story to Reddit and got over 200 comments on it. Many people thought it was one of the stupidest business decisions ever, but a few people… Read More »

VocalCloning.com – Free Business Idea
Here’s a good business idea I came up with but decided not to do. Maybe somebody else would be interested though, so I am posting it here. You have probably heard of Deep Fakes (videos that use AI to swap one person’s face with somebody else’s face), but you may not know that there are… Read More »

I spent most of the past 5 years working on AI projects, but they were mainly for me to learn from, not to make money. During that time I had no income, other than selling a few domains every year, so 2022 needs to be different. Here’s what I am working on to change this… Read More »
The post Metaverses, NFTs, and AI first appeared on Impulse Communications, Inc..Free Domain Name Appraisals
There are already several automated sites that will estimate the value of a domain name, but this week I created what I think is the first one powered by AI: BoredHumans.com Domain Appraiser While I love EstiBot.com, which is the industry leader, some of the other sites often give really bad valuations, so my goal… Read More »

Over the summer I wrote how I fell in love with the Yachts.com domain name, even though I knew nothing about boats. I spent months building a site, setting up a boat brokerage business, getting in the luxury boat charter business, offering to buy boats for cash, offering boat insurance, offering peer-to-peer yacht rentals, and more.… Read More »

Here’s an update: Overall, I have been making significant progress with Yachts.com, but haven’t found a good way to… Read More »
The post Yachts.com – Update #1 first appeared on Impulse Communications, Inc..Why I Bought Yachts.com
“Not all who wander are lost.” I have wandered the internet for the past 5 years, learning new things, trying various money-making ventures, and exploring. All great journeys must come to an end sometime though. I needed a purpose. I needed an income. I needed to be able to explain to people what I actually… Read More »
The post Why I Bought Yachts.com first appeared on Impulse Communications, Inc..An Inside Look At Email Marketing
Here’s how a small project of mine a few months ago led to something really, really big… I have been selling domain names for over 20 years, but have mainly relied on inbound leads (people looking up I was the owner and emailing me an offer). I sometimes list domains with brokers, but that has… Read More »
The post An Inside Look At Email Marketing first appeared on Impulse Communications, Inc..The Story of BuildFreeSites.com
It started with an idea I had to promote BoredHumans.com. Maybe I could build free websites for people in exchange for them mentioning BoredHumans.com on social media (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc.). A potential problem, though, would be that for the past few months, I have been paying somebody $4/hr to promote BoredHumans.com on social media,… Read More »

I know I am stating the obvious here, but the COVID-19 crisis will forever change consumer behavior, shifting billions of dollars of spending to online purchasing. There are many internet services and apps younger people have become enamored with over the past few years, but were not being used by the general population. All of… Read More »
