A Recent Article on the Increased Interest in Domain Names

Domain	18Karat.ws
Current Owner	I have been active on the WWW since the mid 1990s, and have registered a number of domains which I thought I might be able to use for my many and varied interests in science, the arts, animals, books, personal news and other topics. I have been able to develop about a dozen main domains thus far, and several which I consider minor ones. I think it has come time to offer a couple of my Top Level Domains to others who are now unable to find a name they might like that is not already registered -- and you would not believe some of the names which have been registered already! Thousands of new ones are gobbled up around the planet each and every minute, 24/7, through different national and international registrars by private individuals and businesses -- more than $100 million was spent on domain names in 2006 -- billions of $ of services and merchandise were sold last year on the Internet -- what have you been waiting for? The time to invest in the future is NOW ! Read the 1 June 2007 ARTICLE about how important short word generic domain names are for personal and business use. Listen to your seller talking to YOU, personally, about his kewl items while you are reading about this one
Potential Uses	Due to the increasing demand by developing nations, the price of metals on the world stock exchanges has been skyrocketing. The metal content in the US ¢penny¢ is now worth more than one cent, and the price of SILVER and GOLD is higher than it has been in some 30 years! As the value of the paper $dollar$ decreases on the world currency markets [largely due to the rapidly increasing US deficit], smart investors are once again turning to the precious metals as a hedge against inflation and as a time valued investment. Yes, these values DO fluctuate over time, but LONG TERM they have a proven track record as a positive investment strategy. This TOP LEVEL DOMAIN can be used for whatever purpose you desire, without restrictions. The name suggests that you buy / sell / trade / auction 18 Karat GOLD, in the form of jewelry, objects de vertu, watches, desk clocks, sculptures, etc.. It may include information on where the GOLD is mined, the methods employed, the geopolitics involved -- newsletters and mailing lists, with links to related topics / businesses / web sites thereby earning extra income as commissions -- and / or set up your own server and allow other denizens of the Internet to use your WWW services for a fee -- whatever pops into your always active mind, foresight and imagination -- and in any language or country of origin! This is what the top half of the Index page looks like on my PRIMARY TOP LEVEL DOMAIN -- wow, is it way different than the first main screen I designed in the 90s! It includes links to all of my diverse interests, in a simplistic, easy to navigate web site, with fast loading time -- simple is better for the Instant Satisfaction that most Internet surfers demand, whether it be when visiting a personal or business web site -- it is compatible with any browser, unlike some misguided web masters who design their pages for a particular browser, and / or filled with web objects that require specialized plug-ins which the potential viewer often has to find, download and wait for, when all they wanted was to see what the site had to offer -- this defeats the primary purpose for having a web portal in the first place, that of providing FAST informational content -- and, perhaps, SALES. click the icon below for an enlarged image [opens in a new window for convenience]
About Domain Names	Top level domain names include the old classics, such as dotCOM, dotNET, dotORG, as well as some of the relatively recent newcomers, dotINFO, dotWS (WS = Web Site - note that it is one letter shorter than most other TLDN designations!), dotUS, and a couple others. The Chinese have their own system, and the European Union is slated to initiate their own in the near future. These are not the domains having the extra national country code in the URL, for example, eBay.com/es or its variation es.ebay.com, or eBay.co.uk, and are international in scope to begin with. A domain is like real estate property on the Internet, your own personal or business home on the WorldWideWeb, able to potentially reach millions of viewers having the same hobbies and interests from around the world -- not to mention the obvious business potential. A domain name can be willed to someone, just like other personal property, family jewels or real estate. A domain name should preferably be short and generic, which makes it a lot easier to remember and type in, thus potentially avoiding spelling errors and not reaching the intended web site -- although your business may be named Old Dominion Stamps and Coins, Ltd., it is way too long for an appropriate domain name -- eStamps would be much more appropriate, more readily remembered and indicative of what you have to offer, IF you can find it still available!!
What's In a Name?	Really, anything you want to place on your web site -- you do not need a dotCOM domain to sell things -- and having a dotCOM domain doesn't mean that you have to sell things on it. As long as the domain name you have and use has some meaning for you and its potential visitors, you are free to do with it what you like -- start a blog, talk about your hobbies, travels, pets, gardening / cooking tips, trading / selling your duplicate collectibles -- your spouse and children can even add pages dedicated to their interests. Viewers of my own genealogy pages have emailed me that they are distant cousins, and helped me complete my family history back to the 17th century! Former students I had in Spain many years ago have contacted me, bringing me up to date on their lives. You can include your domain name on your letter heads, business cards and in your Holiday greeting cards, as I do, so that family and friends can see something more personalized than any greeting card can ever offer, and perhaps make printouts of the latest photos you have online -- that distant cousin or grandma or ex-spouse can get your latest news and pics.
Domain Ownership Transfer	I shall facilitate the transfer of this domain to the lucky winner with the same registrar I use for mine, making the seemingly complicated process as painless as possible. There are NO shipping and packing fees connected with this sale. I simply have to obtain some data from the winner via email, fill out some forms in certain cases, FAX and/or email certain data to my registrar. The individual transfers take from 2 to about 7 days to have the domain out of my account and into yours. Web site construction is easy, and I suggest using Adobe PageMill V3, which is always listed on eBay -- it is what I use for my several sites and eBay item descriptions and it is easy as pie, even for a blond who has never baked before. One can also use any of the other newer and more convoluted programs which are available -- FrontPage, PageMaker, DreamWeaver, etc. -- or if they are the nerdy kind and have loads of spare time on their hands, they can do it the old fashioned way, typing out hundreds or thousands of lines of HTML code/page! Just this item decription has over 400 lines of HTML in it and PageMill did it all for me! All I had to do was type in the text and drop the pics where they belong, which itself took quite a while -- and I always have a lot of fun doing it!
