uniregistry a few days later..

June 15, 2015Domaining, Sh*tsdomains, uniregistryPF

This is how it looks..
My concerns about any registrar is if they steal our domains…
I’v heard some big complains about some companies taking/ripping out their costumers…
But if a guy with almost 600 domains, like Doron Vermaat moves them to Uniregistry that might be a good sign. Lets see how it ends.

Well!
I did! They interface is hot – no cross sales, forced sales and other *shitty* sales techniques.

My affiliate link to uniregistry! 🙂

Yes! google.com! 🙂

US$ 10.88… ya, 99cents + expensive than mydomain.com.
But I decided to move forward with this to test them.

YÉH! 5.44 TopCoin!
I don’t know what the heck is this but I decided to accept it.

Topcoin is designed to reward your most loyal customers with incentives to make repeat purchases of your products.

I’v connected it with paypal and activated PRIVACY LINK – looks like its FREE!

Free privacy and 5.44 TopCoin (half of my purchase value in TopCoin)?!
I can’t believe!

enom might keep the domain on reactivation period for 120 days!
renew for themselfs
enom’s redemption charge is $250 + 1 year of renewal

REACTIVATION-PENDING

a. Reactivation Period Process. For a period of approximately 30 days after expiration of the term of domain name registration services, we may provide a procedure by which expired domain name registration services may be renewed. We may, but are not obligated to, offer this process, called the “reactivation period.” You assume all risks and all consequences if you wait until close to or after the expiration of the original term of domain name registration services to attempt to renew the domain name registration services. We may, in our sole discretion, choose not to offer a reactivation period and we shall not be liable therefore. The reactivation period renewal process, if any, may involve additional fees which we and your Primary Service Provider may determine.

We may make expired domain name services(s) available to third parties,

we may auction off the rights to expired domain name services (the auction beginning close to the end or after the end of the reactivation period),

and/or expired domain name registration services may be re-registered to any party at any time.

According to some pages ENOM might keep the domain for 120 days (3 months!!) or even renew it themselfs…

Now idea why eNom renewed it for another year, I’m quite sure the owner didn’t. That’s the odd part about it. According to the quote it shouldn’t be in Reactivion Period for a whole year.

Enom’s redemption charge is $250 + 1 year of renewal which I think is very excessive. The domain name is important to me but its borderline as to whether its worth that much to me at the moment.

PendingDelete is 5 days, and 6th day domain will be deleted.

HugeDomains, a review by Scott Phillips

May 30, 2015Domaining, Sh*tsdomains, hugedomainsPF

Recently I’v been looking for some domain names for some projects…
HugeDomains.com has a lot of domains for sale…

Here is a nice review made by Scott Phillips.

We were in the process of setting up a new website and needed a domain name. Unfortunately, it was already taken! HugeDomains.com already owned it and wanted $1,495 for it. In my opinion that’s an outrageously high sum of money for this particular domain name. Their website offers a one click buy button for the domain at the full asking price. Since we weren’t willing to do that, I sent an email inquiring about the domain to see if they even negotiate. Around a month later we received a reply from Christian Bosse, on behalf of hugedomains.com, he invited us to submit an offer for the domain.

At this point we needed to figure out how much we valued the domain. We were certainly not willing to spend the full asking price for the domain and after a long conversation about it we settled that our maximum amount we were willing to pay was $700, but that we’d make an an initial offer at $400. We received their reply to our initial offer very quickly, just a few hours later. The reply stated that HugeDomains won’t accept less than $500 for any domain that they sell. It then goes on to say that for domains in the $1500 range they typically accept offers in the $800 – $1000 range depending on “certain” factors. What those factors are, I have no idea. At they very end Christian adds one more wrinkle stating that our next offer would be “final”, what does that mean?

From a listed 16USD we end paying 22.14USD for it.
A handling fee – they need to pick the theme from a warehouse, package it, send it… 2USD.
And the the VAT…

Unused CSS – clean up css stylesheets

May 16, 2015Sh*tscss, performancePF

Well,

Most of *tutorials* about speed optimization that I’v seen talk about minify css, combine them etc… today I’v faced myself (lol) in to a problem… I’m using Flat UI – Free Bootstrap Framework and Theme on a very simple html page. That page will be delivered in a zip file and I just want the HTML itself… So, I want to put the CSS in the HTML but I don’t want the unused stylesheets on it…

So I’v installed CSS remove and combine from Steve McArthur.

Some graphs taken from https://unused-css.com/ about the used/not used CSS selectors/stylesheed.
