Johns Wu is most famous for building a website on Bankaholic.com and eventually selling it to BankRate for a reported $15,000,000. Wu is a well-known Internet entrepreneur, and he is knowledgeable about generic domain names. This afternoon, I read an interview with Johns Wu on MO.com, with considerable focus on domain names. In fact, there was one very interesting answer about an upcoming project:
“I’ve been working on getting a GRAND SLAM in the works. My idea of a grand slam is: category killer domain + SEO [Search Engine Optimization] traffic + monetization. In the next couple years, I’m hoping to build a web property in the same league as Hotels.com and Wine.com. I’ve been in talks with domainers who own valuable portfolios, so hopefully this will happen sooner rather than later ;)”
The interview offers a great looking into the entrepreneurial mind of Wu, and I recommend that you head over to MO.com to read it.
MO.com is a website that interviews entrepreneurs from across all industries around the world. The website focuses on the habits and methods of entrepreneurs, learning what makes them tick. MO.com is becoming a great resource for entrepreneurs to learn from each other, share what works and what doesn’t, and connect with other entrepreneurs in a mutually beneficial way.
Brian Null, the founder of MO.com is familiar with the entrepreneurial mind because he is a successful Internet entrepreneur and domain investor. Brian has owned, operated, monetized, helped broker, or sold domain names like OfficeSupply.com, GolfCourses.com, Dance.com, Hockey.com, Saws.com, and RestaurantReviews.com.
