Domaining at 9 Years Old

Posted on January 2nd, 2011 by AndrewHazenCom  |  2 Comments »

First and foremost, a Happy, Healthy & Successful New Year to you and your loved ones; may 2011 be an epic year for you!!

As some of you may know, my 9 year old son @SpencerHazen is extremely computer savvy and quite the animator!  Some of his recent animations include:

Grateful Dead New Year’s Eve Bobble Concert

Behind the Scenes of Michael Jackson’s Smooth Criminal

Michael Jackson Bobblehead Concert

Super Spencer Bro

I am SO PROUD of Spencer for following his passion and also following through on his projects from start to finish! Today was the icing on the cake when he told me that he wanted to acquire a domain name that wasn’t available!!

Technically, Spencer’s been in the domain space since 2001 when we registered SpencerHazen.com (he was 4 days old) but today at the tender age of 9, he asked me to purchase a domain for him that was already registered by someone else but not being used…

I did a little due diligence and saw that the ‘asking price’ for the domain name was $1,000 and while the ad sense revenue is so-so on SpencerHazen.com it certainly hasn’t earned $1k yet (GRIN).  So as a domainer/parent, I contacted the owner of the domain name and offered $200 for the domain name; a price I found to be fair and reasonable…

Needless to say that in less than two hours we received an accepting response from the domain owner, I sent the $200 into SEDO’s escrow and now we are in the process of transferring the domain name.

I have an extremely, extraordinary positive outlook on the future of domaining…think about it, if a 9 year old is looking to buy/acquire domains then it’s inevitable that the demand for domain names WILL continue to increase.

Have a Happy, Healthy and Successful New Year!!

AirplaneTickets.net Sells for Way Below Market Value

Posted on December 9th, 2010 by AndrewHazenCom  |  No Comments »

Just saw that AirplaneTickets.net sold on SEDO for only $1,400 – WOW that is very, very low!

According to Valuate.com the domain is worth at least $2,500 – congrats to the new owner!!!

Up All Night for Sleep.com

Posted on October 29th, 2010 by AndrewHazenCom  |  No Comments »

For the past 5+ months our dedicated Prime Visibility team has spent countless hours and many sleepless nights working on an amazing project – the launch of Sleep.com

This is without a doubt a major category killer domain and will be THE AUTHORITY on Sleep and all things related to sleep!

We still have lots of work ahead of us as we continue to add content, create partnerships and speak with more advertisers….by the way, anyone with a relevant product or service that relates to sleep should certainly contact us.

Please feel free to visit Sleep.com and provide us with feedback….you can also follow us on twitter @Sleep_Com.  My gut tells me that the site will change over the next few months as we learn more about our visitors and what they want from Sleep.com

Time for me to take a nap now….

Domaining with The Trumps

Posted on October 14th, 2010 by AndrewHazenCom  |  3 Comments »

Back in May, 2010 I announced that we were working closely with The Trump Organization and their exquisite las vegas condotel - Trump Towers Las Vegas.

I am extremely pleased to report that less than six months since TrumpVegasCondos.com went live, we are already ranks as follows in Google:

#17 vegas condo
#19 vegas condos
#11 vegas condo hotel
#21 las vegas condominiums
#14 las vegas penthouses
#27 vegas luxury condos
#30 las vegas luxury condo

And of course the site ranks well for branded terms such as: #2 & #7 for trump condos…
Needless to say traffic and leads are increasing each and every month!!

Stay tuned for more Trump related projects (GRIN)
