A couple of my GoDaddy connections on LinkedIn posted a job opening that might appeal to someone with domain name brokerage experience. GoDaddy is looking to hire an Aftermarket Domain Sales Account Executive in the company’s Cambridge, Massachusetts office. The hire will work on the Afternic side of the business, handling inbound leads on domain names listed for sale via GoDaddy.
Here’s the heart of the job listing:
I noticed that my email service (via Gmail) has been running slower than usual this afternoon. I was expecting to receive a couple of important emails, and both seemed to have been delayed. I visited Google’s G Suite Status Dashboard, and it indicates there is currently a Service Disruption impacting Gmail service, although none of Google’s other services indicate a service disruption or service outage at this time:
I look at most of my GoDaddy Auction buys as a means of adding inventory to my portfolio. What I mean is that I don’t typically acquire gems from GoDaddy Auctions that I plan to keep until I get the right offer. They are names I can generally buy inexpensively – from around $20/each to $2k +/-. I spend more when necessary, but the idea is that I will price the names I buy anywhere from around $1k to the low five figures, depending on the name, and then regularly sell enough of these names to make the effort worthwhile.
A couple of months ago, I wanted to check on the hours of Make Meaning, a once popular and growing children’s shop where I previously took our daughter to make custom candles. Unfortunately, my Google searching revealed that the retail chain had shut all of its locations. The company had used MakeMeaning.com for its corporate website when it was operational.
GoDaddy is celebrating Mother’s Day today in the US with a temporary logo and branding change. In place of the standard GoDaddy logo on the company’s website and social media pages, GoDaddy created a special GoMommy logo.
Perhaps not surprisingly for trademark protection reasons, GoDaddy also owns GoMommy.com. If you visit GoMommy.com today, you can see how GoDaddy is creatively celebrating Moms with its GoMommy branding. In addition, visitors can create their own story to honor their own moms.
You may recall that GoDaddy did something similar on International Women’s Day with a temporary rebrand to GoWomen. I think the GoMommy branding is even more appropriate, and it is a fun way for GoDaddy to celebrate moms.
Happy Mother’s Day!
