Evidently I’ve lived in a bubble the last two months. I’ve had my best August ever in domaining and the nursery didn’t hit last years’ numbers but last year was 40% higher than our best August ever so I thought it was pretty good. I went to an industry event over the last two days and talked to businesses in several different industries and they all agreed. July and August were terrible. I was very surprised to hear that. I came home today and did a little searching and it turns out that this summer has been bad for many industries. It will be interesting to see how earnings come back to see if it is just perception but is a reality. The people I’ve talked to say its a reality, which makes my summer something special evidently. Hopefully this fall will be better for all. Here are today’s names. Click for current prices

Have a name at auction and need more exposure? Send me an email. I Charge $10 per name per day. We may be able to help. If you have an auction you want to promote, email us for details.*All names chosen by me, Shane . (ie you click through and purchase a name you like) or an occasional paid listing. Everything I say is based on my own research or is opinion. Do your own due diligence. That means look it up yourself if you don’t think the stats or my opinion is correct. I hand choose my names but I am paid to make this list by both the auction houses, individuals that are auctioning names, and Godaddy affiliate links. Keep that in mind and only buy names that YOU think are good
TrumpPence.com could be a gripe site about all the companies trumpster has bankrupted and contractors he hasn’t paid. Amazing how moves like that apparently don’t hamper Trumps popularity. Taking deposits from customers knowing the project is going to fail??? Class act that dude. Can’t believe he has made it this far. Pass the cool-aid. Crazy times.
nice pattern but PT about the reserve…
August sucked for me after a great July, so certainly ancious about the next few months.
