If I see two friends or colleagues that could benefit from meeting over a shared interest or converging path, I am always on the lookout to make a connection. Connecting friends or colleagues for each other’s betterment is something I enjoy doing and I appreciate when it is done for me without asking or expectation of a quid pro quo.

Just about every Sunday, Andrew Miller shares some random thoughts on LinkedIn. Oftentimes, his weekly posts offer some domain name news or insights. In his second bullet point yesterday, Andrew shared a list of domain names he and Hilco Digital are advising on, and he closed that thought with this:

“If you have a connection, client or are a potential interested party, connect with us and we will work with you, always. We love to share success!”

When I first started developing my domain names, I learned the importance of downtime monitoring.

I added all of my developed websites to my account, and whenever there was any downtime detected, I would receive an email notifying me. This was helpful because I could ping the hosting company when I saw it and let them know when the websites were down so they could investigate the cause.

If you’re seeking engagement on Twitter in the domain name space, the best thing you can do is tell people you’re looking to buy a domain name and ask people to share their names. For a greater response, make the request somewhat vague, and there will be a stampede of domain name investors in your replies.

Peter Askew tipped me off to this domain-wanted post on Xwitter:

I do not know Nick Huber, but I see he has a large following on Twitter and frequently offers advice to startup founders and entrepreneurs. Over the weekend, Nick shared some advice about domain names:

While the “premium” term is highly subjective for domain names, particularly given the numbers he shares, I think he is offering good advice. Either start with a good domain name or upgrade when the business has enough profits to enable the acquisition.
