Despite living in New Hampshire for the majority of my life (until I was in my 20s), I had never been to the New Hampshire Motor Speedway (NHMS). In fact, I had never been to a NASCAR or other auto race until yesterday.

I want to give a big “thank you” to GoDaddy for inviting me to watch the GoDaddy NASCAR team at the Sylvania 300 at NHMS. It was a memorable event, and I sincerely appreciate the invitation they extended to me and a friend of mine.

I want to share some of the photos I took during this unforgettable day.

If you didn’t have an opportunity to attend the hour+ GoDaddy Hangout discussing domain name valuation, I have embedded the video below. Page Howe and Ammar Kubba were guests on the show offering their insight.

I am sure GoDaddy’s Joe Styler will be happy to answer any questions if you care to leave them. I would also be happy to share my own thoughts if you have questions that I might be able to answer.

If you aren’t aware (I would be surprised), DomainSherpa.com often discusses domain valuation with a variety of domain investment experts, and you can learn about domain valuation by tuning in to his show weekly.

Tomorrow afternoon, GoDaddy will be hosting a Hangout that covers a topic that is very important in the domain name investment business: how to value a domain name. Ammar Kubba and Page Howe will be joining GoDaddy’s Joe Styler to share their thoughts on domain name valuation.

The live Hangout will take place on September 22 at 1pm Eastern time, and it is scheduled for one hour. In addition to the discussion, there will be a question and answer period for questions from people in the audience. GoDaddy has invited questions to be submitted prior to tomorrow’s event.

More important than a discussion about actual domain name values, I think it would be more valuable to watch a discussion about how Page, Ammar, and Joe determine the value of domain names. I’d be interested in seeing the tools they use and how they are able to look through a list of domain names and peg a value to them. In addition, it would be valuable to learn how Page and Ammar assign a value to domain names they own when a prospective buyer inquires.

One of the best ways domain name owners can secure their registrar accounts is to enable two factor authentication within their domain registrar accounts. GoDaddy is one of the major registrars that offers 2 factor authentication for its customers, although the company has not offered it to international clients until today.

I was informed that GoDaddy is now offering its international clients the ability to add this additional security measure to their accounts as of today. When the domain owner logs into his or her domain registrar account with a password, they are prompted to enter a unique code that is sent via text message to the domain owner. This is a free service now offered to all GoDaddy customers throughout the world (users may have to pay for text messages depending on their mobile device service).
