A person’s entry into the vast wilderness of domain investing likely passes the through the gate of mostly hearing, seeing, and investing in .com, .net, and .org.

While an unknown percentage of domain investors have packed their bags and headed even further west in hopes of striking profitable domain glory with the supposed second-coming of the domain land grab of new top-level domain extensions (new TLDs), quite a few stayed behind and settled into what has become a nice source of revenue: investing in country-code top-level domains (ccTLDs).

From the decades of Ron Jackson’s success with .us to Raymond Hackney pioneering .tv sales, a growing number of young upstarts are making a way for themselves buying and selling a variety of ccTLD domains.

Did you know that 83% of persons of color have their first experience with law enforcement by way of a traffic stop? 🚨🤔

That’s staggering when compared to the single percent reporting of white persons having encountered law enforcement for the first time by way of traffic stop.

With the world living in and out the tensions in social upheaval regarding racial injustice and police brutality, a startup, Check Borromean Enterprisess, LLC (also known as “Check” and “Check App”) is poised to provide accountability and trust as it emerges with a solution that truly bridges the gap of communication between the people and government — building unity while building relationships.

It’s not everyday that we stumble upon a domain investor that’s kicking butt and taking names with undeniable daily domain sales.

And if the domain investor is achieving such daily sales, then they have likely been at for years, if not decades.

Now what if I told you it was possible to not only achieve daily domain sales 3-4 times your investment cost, and you could do so having only been introduced to domain investing 60 days ago. What would you think, say and do?

It’s not very often you stumble upon a domain hobbyist that has played a critical role in the innovation and automation of domain registration and web hosting services, to say the least.

But today’s guest, Rolf Larsen, not only played a critical role, but is recognized as a long-standing pioneer of Internet access, Domain name registrar and Web Hosting services throughout Europe and Scandinavia, and onto the greater globe.

The struggle is real when it comes to the buying and selling of domain names. Domain investing and development, neither one is for the faint of heart.

Domain investing has become highly competitively over the last 3 or so years — expiring domain auctions, especially with COVID putting tight clamps on gambling, a thriving industry, pushing a large number of the population into alternative investments — stock market and domain name investing.

While increased competition is one thing, there are a number of threats lurking to wipe out a domain investors portfolio and legacy as the domain industry matures.

In a recent podcast, I sat down with Michael Gargiulo, a long-time domain investor and developer, and serial entrepreneur.

The domain industry is a high-churn profession and industry consisting of a motley crew of individuals with varied personal and professional experiences.

My latest podcast guest is no exception to the rule in all of the best ways and thoughts.

When we remember 2020, the world will certainly not forget the one thing that scoured and traveled to the ends of the earth: COVID-19.

It has voraciously snuffed out hundreds of thousands of lives and counting — young, old, and everyone in between.

Now into the tens of millions and counting, COVID-19, also known as the novel coronavirus, has ravaged the lives of many now finding themselves jobless, all sources of income and savings barren.

To add injury to insult, life and disability insurance, retirement, and health benefits have all evaporated for some into the land of furlough and others in the the land of never returning.

But for all that find themselves having to pull up on the ol’ boot straps, today’s podcast guest and the company she leads just might be the break you’re so desperately needing to catch.
