Is it Harder today to be a domainer vs 10 years ago?

One of the more popular debates in domaining is who had the easier time? Was it easier in 2007 to make money than it is today? That’s the latest thread I came across on Namepros. I know Rick Schwartz has tweeted out in the past that it was harder back in the day, he said, […]

Editorial : This post is not about NameJet

This story is not about NameJet, and won’t mention NameJet beyond this point. Sundays are great days for introspection, particularly by finger-pointing domainers with plenty of time on their hands.
