Think small and increase mobile web presence

mobile-web-and-social-networkingI’ve just been reading a nice little article on WebUser.co.uk entitled Mobile web usage boosted by twitter and it reminded me of some things I was talking about not so long ago. Things that should be focused on with any mobile web development project. How many website owners think about how much their site costs mobile web users to visit in regions where there are data charges?  How many website owners see the mobile web as an integral part of the online marketing campaigns especially in relation to social networking… › Continue reading

How fast can a domain name be sold on twitter? UAEjobs.net for sale

My friend is selling a great domain UAEjobs.net so I am going to do a little experiment on twitter to see how fast it can be sold. The domain is perfect for recruitment in dubai or abu dhabi, short and snappy it would be fantasic to develop into a job posting board for someone involved in the recruitment industry.
Why not follow me on twitter @garyptaylor or use the contact Gary form on my blog to make an offer on this domain.

Selling domains on social networks

Selling domains on social networks

Week three of my selling domains on social networks series of posts. For those of you who are SDOSN virgins, this series of weekly posts sees me using Twitter and Mix to market a selection of now 74 domain names, all listed on Sedo with no reserve (so yes you can bid on them) Each week I report back the statistics showing whch domains names were viewed most frequently and which social network, Twitter or Mixx contributed the most referrals/visitors. And hopefully sales! Although in three weeks we have only seen two sales and one of those was actually before I started the posts…hmm. Anyway let us proceed and see how things have faired over the last 3 weeks. Oh and excuse the totally crap graphic design this week. I seriously need to sort out my skills on photoshop…Paint just doesn’t cut it! › Continue reading

Selling domains on social networks 18th March

The second week of my selling domains on social networks has now come to an end, well it actually ended on the 16th March but I’ve been a bit busy so this post is two days late. The last seven or so days have been interesting I have to say with the sale of expected.net going through nicely, one which wasn’t included in last weeks post. Continuing in good old Gary Taylor fashion, I have changed the way I want to do things again and this week have featured not just the top 20 domains names by how many views to offer they had on Sedo, but also the ones which received direct traffic as a result of my social networking chat on Mixx and Twitter.  So here you have it… › Continue reading
