WhyPark continued

October 25th, 2009 admin View Comments

Alright, so I am beginning to see stats come back from the WhyPark Domains, looks about the same as parking at the moment. I love the option of uploading photos and provided cross linking with my other sites. I’ll keep you posted.

If you want to see one of my new WhyPark domains.

WhyPark.com

October 23rd, 2009 admin View Comments

Well thanks to the Painted Nipple Advertising of chefpatrick.com I decided to check out WhyPark.com*

I applied last night, submitted 5 of my domains for them to check and see if I would be accepted. I got an email this morning that I was, so I went to whypark.com and continued the signup.

As with everything I try, I start with the free version and I was very impressed with everything that comes for free with the WhyPark.com account. It took me about 6 minutes to setup two mini-sites, after that I just had to change the DNS on those two domains to ns1.whypark.com and ns2.whypark.com. I also text chatted with a rep there and they were very helpful with my questions. There site seems to cater to the English crowd, which is a shame as I have a bunch of high type-in Traffic foreign domains I would love to try on their system. So far you cant beat Sedo.com* for their ability to create parked pages and ads in just about every language consequently, I have switched all my foreignword.com domains to Sedo with great results. I am astonished at how simple and easy to follow WhyPark.com was, now I just have to wait for the DNS to propagate and I’ll check the stats. I am giving up about 1$ a day in parking $ and I am anxious to see how why park will perform in terms of ad revenue. Stay tuned.

I am just an egg.

* disclosure: both the links on this post have my partner ID attached.

EggZap Makeover

October 17th, 2009 admin View Comments

Well As you can see, I have finally gotten away from the Default Theme.

I have decided to create a section entitled “10 domains that just became available but you may want to grab. ” I am going to use the scheduled publish option so it will post automatically every 12 hours.

I actually want these domains to appear in the top right and not in the new post section, more work to do.

Halo 3 Machinima – Spartan Life

This has nothing to do with domains, but my son is a big fan. So I thought I would help garner some attention to the Spartan Life, my son’s favorite Halo 3 Machinima series.

Twitter over capacity?

Ok, I am wondering what is overloading twitter today.

I like their overcapacity graphic, I wish there was some way to identify the whale, just for curiosity’s sake.

mobile update

October 11th, 2009 admin View Comments

This is my first attempt to update my blog via my blackberry while sitting in my car waiting for my sons tournament to end.

I have checked my facebook and twitter and read all the domain blogs this am, and thought I had reached the limits of two thumbed typing. I sshed into my severs checked a couple of logs then decided to see what it would be like to update my blog via my blackberry. I must say I am impressed with wordpress and its ease of use even on my mobile. I enjoyed Linton’s Saturday blog post, which in turn inspired this post. I have been running 5k thee times a week all summer, but I stopped about two weeks ago, as with everything I learn or relearn, I tend to get tunnel vision and forget the concept of every thing in moderation. Well, in this moment of reflection and introspection I hereby make an oath to continue running and tweet my runs with sanoodi to provide proof to whomever is watching. A friend of mine who started and runs his own insulation manufacturing company (cellulose.com) told me “you have to take time to sharpen the saw!” I am realizing perhaps the blade is becoming dull.
