Remove BIN From Landing Page Before Outbound

0

I’ve been doing a bit of outbound marketing on some of my lower value inventory-quality domain names. I have been using DomainLeads.com as well as Google searches for lead generation and reaching out to prospective buyers to move some of this inventory.

One thing I’ve been trying to do is to remove BIN pricing from my landing pages before doing outbound. I haven’t been removing BIN prices from platforms like Sedo or Afternic, because I am more likely to forget to re-add it, but it would probably be wise if I did that, too.

Collecting Cards

When I was a kid and in my teens, I collected baseball and basketball cards. I had binders and boxes full of sports cards. I bought packs of cards and traded cards with friends. I also collected various collectibles – like Starting Lineup figures and Wheaties boxes with athletes images on the front of the box.

I recently brought my collection to my home from my childhood home so I could share with my kids. My son has been collecting sports cards with a focus on soccer cards. It was fun going through my card collection with him because he has seen highlights of many of the players and has seen some of them play or watched them on tv.

Early Bird Pricing for 2025 ICA Meeting

2

I booked my flight and hotel for the 2025 ICA Meeting in Las Vegas. The event held earlier this year was excellent, and I am looking forward to attending the member meeting again next year.

Last week, the ICA announced tickets for the event went on sale at an early bird price of $399 for ICA members. Tickets are on sale via the Zeffy platform, which I had not used before buying my ticket. According to the email, the early bird rate ends on July 31. I don’t know what the non-discounted purchase price will be once the deadline passes, but I bought mine while booking my trip to Las Vegas.

This event is exclusively for ICA members (current and those who join before the meeting), so you’ll need to become a member before buying a ticket and attending.

Fred Hsu Offers Tips on Domain Name Security

According to Coin Telegraph, there has reportedly been a security incident involving domain names at Squarespace. “Multiple decentralized finance (DeFi) apps were targeted in a domain registry attack on July 11, according to an X post from blockchain security platform Blockaid,” the article reported. As you may recall, Squarespace acquired the domain names registered at the Google’s domain registrar after Google exited the domain registrar business.

Registrar Where My Last 10 Afternic Sales Landed

After I sell a domain name, I don’t pay much attention to it. Occasionally, I will look to see how it is being used, but I don’t really follow my sold domain names after they’re sold.

Last month, Namecheap Founder and CEO Richard Kirkendall sounded the alarm that his company would “most likely” leave the Afternic sales network.

With Afternic listings still showing up in the Namecheap registration path, I was curious to see which registrars have been responsible for my most recent 10 Afternic sales. To do so, I did Whois searches on my most recent 10 Afternic sales, not including LTO deals or the a sale I closed using the Afternic checkout link.

DomainLeads Integrated into Dropping.pro Email

One of the paid tools I use daily is the Dropping.pro email alerts. I created 3 alert emails with different parameters, and each morning, I receive 3 emails with domain names coming up for auction that have certain attributes that may make them appealing to me.

Since the launch of DomainLeads.com, I have been copying names from the Dropping.pro emails and doing a bulk search to add another search layer and identify even better targets. I previously wrote about how I have been using DomainLeads.com. Interestingly, I have found myself saving money rather than spending more, but that’s a different story.
