Testimonials

“Our website, RubberStamps.net, was purchased in May of 2005 and online our ordering/ecommerce site went live in November of that same year. Since then we have risen to the top 10 for our main search phrase on Google, MSN and Yahoo! Purchasing an easy to remember domain name has helped greatly with our branding, and our revenues have grown steadily each month. Instead of finding and soliciting customers, they find us first!” Gwendolyn Lee RubberStamps.net

Hospitality Pays “In the increasingly competitive world of internet commerce, having a strong domain name can provide a major edge. After spending endless hours trying to find a good domain to register for our new business initiative, we found www.RoomRate.com on BuyDomains.com. We purchased RoomRate.com and launched an online hotel booking and travel site which features no booking fees and real time discount rates. We are proud to report that RoomRate.com is now one of the top web hotel search brands on the internet.” Joe Mazzarella RoomRate.com

“On April Fools day in 2001, I changed the name of my font software design company to Altered Ego Fonts. Changing the name to Altered Ego Fonts had several positive benefits. It moved me to the top of lists alphabetically when fonts are listed. In typeface there is a character called the aesc (pronounced “ash”). The aesc corresponds perfectly to the name Altered Ego, and is featured prominently in all marketing that I do. Altered Ego is a developer of original fonts for PCs and Macintosh, as well as a developer of custom typefaces for organizations such as National City, Telarc International, The Cleveland Museum of Art, and Tyndale House Publishers. We are most well know for our Eclectic Web font (a collection of dingbats and icons for web site developers), and for the design of a text typeface for the New Living Translation Bible. As time has passed, I’ve … Read More »

“I am a freelance sports journalist based in London and two and a half years ago — after being crowned national champion tipster — I devised and set up Horsetrader.net, a specialist company that sells horse-racing expertise and betting tips to clients on a one-to-one basis. Through my television and newspaper contacts in England — I write weekly columns for Attheraces.com, Britain’s premier racing TV website, and the Sunday Mirror, one of the UK’s biggest selling newspapers — I have been able to secure links to my website horsetrader.net. Initially, as with most new businesses, trade was relatively quiet, but having the website and such a ‘catchy’ domain — it’s one that all English-speaking people instantly recognize and it says exactly what the company is about — has undoubtedly helped to boost traffic. As a result, business has increased tenfold in the first six months this year and not a … Read More »

“Since launching FirePlaceGlass.com just over a year ago our online sales have more than tripled. We have several different websites and FireplaceGlass.com outperforms the others on a regular basis. Buying this domain name from BuyDomains.com was the best money I have ever spent and the online exposure we have gained has made our Business a Booming Success. There is no better marketing tool then the internet and the right domain name can get your website the traffic you need to succeed.” Brian Langohr Diamond Fire Glass, Inc.

Learning from the past In 1998, Jason Yelowitz founded a company called iCastle.com. Like many companies of the day, however, iCastle quickly buckled beneath the weight of too large a staff, unrealistic investor expectations and a lack of sustaining capital. In 2003, he formed a new company called Yeloweb, taking a completely opposite approach to building his business. Jason hired a minimal staff, which he says allows him “to avoid the need for outside funding and have a quick, decisive leadership style rather than one necessitating lots of meetings. We can generally make a decision on whether to do a business deal in less than five minutes.” Yeloweb generates online leads across several verticals including: home improvement and real estate, with such websites as www.HousePainting.net (purchased from BuyDomains in 2006) and www.eHouseHunting.com. They generate traffic through a combination of search engine marketing and search engine optimization. Jason notes, “Having valuable … Read More »
