10 Most Frequently Visited Domain Name Industry Websites

Comments

July 18, 2012

I spend a fair amount of time during the day visiting domain name related websites. Some of the sites I visit offer valuable domain related tools, while others offer news and commentary. There are also auction websites and aftermarket platforms that I visit multiple times per day.

Listed below are the ten domain industry websites I visit the most. Some of these sites are almost constantly opened in a browser tab at all times, while others are visited whenever I see an update is made.

10 Most Frequently Visited Domain Websites (in alphabetical order):

DNForum
DomainBoardroom
Domaining.com
DomainNameWire.com
DomainTools.com
FreshDrop.net
Google (Adsense, News, Analytics, Webmaster Tools)
NameJet

I used to visit DNForum extensively but I stopped because I wanted to learn more about domaining. As of now I check Morgan Linton’s site,iGoldrush and of course this blog every day.

@ Adi

I learned a whole lot about the domain industry on DNForum.

Good list – I also usually check out Domainsville.com too.

Elliotsblog.com can be useful at times as well.

I practically keep a tab with DomainTools open whenever I’m browsing. I check in here everyday, TheDomains, Domain Shane, and also spend a fair amount of time at GoDaddy, Namejet, and Sedo.

I never understood the hype over Domaining.com.
The others on the list I do agree with though.

I’d recommend domainsherpa.com to anyone who is new to domaining. The videos are an excellent resource and you get to see some of the most influential and successful domainers in a natural, conversational setting. Useful information and some inspiring stories of getting started in this business. Learned a lot from this blog as well. Thanks and regards,

I agree but DS isn’t updated on a daily basis.

There are a lot of great domain related resources… these are just the ones I am on many times per day.

Cool list Elliot! Do you find it’s quieter at DNF than usual?

I haven’t been a member as long as you have, but it just seems quieter (i.e. less quality posts/conversation, more mediocre sales threads).

I can’t stop visiting though.

@Domains

Along with some you mentioned, most frequent sites for me for .ca domains include Namespro.ca, Sibername.com, and MyID.ca. Also like to check the action at DomainNameSales.com

@ Domains

Agree about DomainNameSales.com. I looked at the quotes list yesterday and found a name I like at a reasonable range. Need to investigate that industry though to see if there’s room for any margin on the flip.
