“It’s another day, another dime, another dollar, another day here in domaining paradise…”

Who proclaims and lives by this moniker?

Well, you’ll have to tune in as today’s podcast guest who truly lives in the sun, sand, and sea in the land of opportunity.

A few months ago, I received an interesting email alert that contained a link to an article, Domain prices are unregulated and rising at an alarming rate, about how the days of enjoying reasonably priced domain names may be coming to an end.

Always intrigued by anything pertain to domain names in general, this article’s title got me to click hook, line, and sinker.

The Chinese Domain Market is likely to be daunting or mysterious to understand, to say the least, especially if the only information consumed is Western-based domain investing.

Since entering into domain investing in late 2012, I’ve stumbled upon sites — 4.cn and ename.com — dedicated to domain buying and selling in China.

Personally, I’ve never quite understood the ins and outs of domain buying and selling in the Chinese Domain Market in great clarity, if any at all, even after making 2 4-figure sales during the 4L .com craze, as known as the Chinese domain bubble.

No need to fear though if you too are in the dark about understanding the Chinese domain market.

The domain industry can be quite an insular experience, especially if you don’t connect with others, attend meetups and conferences, or participate in online forums and blogs.

Then, the complexities of domain buying, selling, leasing, and development increase exponentially when adding in language barriers, time zone, cultural and socioeconomic differences.

It’s one thing to be a domain hobbyist, domain investor, domain developer, domain broker, or domain consultant within one’s own backyard, per se.

However, today’s podcast guest truly understands what it means to be a global domain investor in one of the world’s fastest growing major economy, India.

It’s hard to believe that another year has come and gone, and with it, a decade too.

The sky is the limit in 2020, and the future is quite bright for all aspects and persons in the domain industry.
