Superb idea!! All the success!!

📈 Short domains continue to prove their value. This week's sale of AF .org highlights the strong demand for rare two-letter domains, while 47brand .jp stands out as a notable public sale under the Japanese ccTLD. The domain market remains truly global at Sedo.

📅 March's top keywords in domain sales at Afternic are here! 1️⃣ AI 2️⃣ My 3️⃣ Home Agent at #4. Claw, another rising AI keyword, made the top 10.

Lot of recent chatter around .si. When investors start buying from other investors, prices can move quickly and it creates the impression that end-user demand is right around the corner. Sometimes it is. Sometimes it isn't. We've closed several .si sales recently. Almost every buyer was another investor, not a business. I'm not saying .si can't work. I'm saying I'd be careful about extrapolating today's investor activity into tomorrow's end-user demand.

Featured Attendee | Domain Summit Europe 2026 Some people trade domains. Angus Ewen works in the places where digital assets change hands, change purpose, and sometimes begin their second life. We are delighted to feature Angus Ewen from the UK 🇬🇧, of EW3N Ltd, as a Featured Attendee at Domain Summit Europe 2026 in Kempten, Germany. EW3N is a family-led digital asset business run by three brothers: Alex, Ryan and Angus Ewen. Their world is not only about buying and selling domains. It is about distressed digital assets, portfolios, websites, marketplaces, liquidity, loans, recovery, repositioning and timing. That makes Angus an especially interesting person to have in the room. EW3N has been involved with a number of domain and digital asset projects, including Digital Junkyard, Digital Scrapyard, Flip.uk, DNWE.com, Brandable.uk and the former Digital Candy dot UK / Domain Manage chapter. Some of these brands have closed, some have changed direction, and some are being rebuilt. That is the nature of this part of the industry: it moves fast, and it rewards people who can make decisions when others hesitate. A personal note makes this especially meaningful. EW3N was the company that sold DNForum.com to me, Helmuts, after acquiring it from Epik. So in a very real way, Angus and the EW3N brothers are part of the modern DNForum story as well. That is exactly the kind of person Domain Summit Europe is built for: practical, entrepreneurial, quietly experienced, close to real transactions, and involved in the parts of the domain industry where value is not discussed in theory, but decided in the deal. Welcome to Domain Summit Europe 2026, Angus 🇬🇧 17-18 August 2026 Kempten, Germany Limited to 60 people kempten26.domainsummit.eu/e/… #DomainSummit #DomainSummitEurope #DomainNames #Domains #EW3N #DigitalAssets #DNForum #DigitalJunkyard #DigitalScrapyard #FlipUK #DNWE #BrandableUK #Kempten #Germany

Today's Featured Attendee | Domain Summit Europe 2026 Some people follow the domain market. Reynard “Rey” Rion reads the signal beneath it. We are delighted to feature Rey Rion from Indonesia 🇮🇩, now with RollerAds, as a Featured Attendee at Domain Summit Europe 2026 in Kempten, Germany. Rey is one of those people who understands domains from several angles: as an investor, as a business development professional, as someone who has worked in Web3 domains, and now as someone operating closer to domain traffic, monetisation and performance advertising. Many in the industry know him from his time at Freename, where he helped bring the Web2 and Web3 domain conversation into rooms like Domain Summit Africa 2026. Today, at RollerAds, he is moving into another highly relevant part of the domain economy: what happens to domain traffic after the name is registered, parked, redirected or monetised. RollerAds is a high-performance ad network focused on traffic, website monetisation, Push, OnClick and Direct Click formats. For domain owners, the interesting part is its domain traffic monetisation approach, including DNS-based parked-domain monetisation, Direct Click, RSOC-style search feeds, and the ability to connect large domain portfolios. That makes Rey’s perspective especially interesting. Because domain investing is not only about buying and selling names. It is also about traffic, intent, privacy, monetisation, timing and knowing when a quiet asset is still alive. Rey is also known as a privacy-oriented domain investor under the Nameably name on X. That fits the character: thoughtful, careful with signal, and much more interested in substance than noise. For Domain Summit Europe 2026, this is exactly the kind of attendee we want in Kempten: international, practical, domain-native, privacy-aware, and connected to the evolving business of domain traffic. Welcome to Domain Summit Europe 2026, Rey 🇮🇩 17-18 August 2026 Kempten, Germany Limited to 60 people kempten26.domainsummit.eu/e/… #DomainSummit #DomainSummitEurope #DomainNames #Domains #RollerAds #DomainParking #DomainMonetization #DirectClick #DomainTraffic #Indonesia #Kempten #Germany

Featured Attendee | Domain Summit Europe 2026 Some people follow traffic. Jonathan Dsouza understands typo monetization. We are delighted to feature Jonathan Dsouza from India 🇮🇳, Director, Publisher Alliances at SitePlug, as a Featured Attendee at Domain Summit Europe 2026 in Kempten, Germany. Jonathan sits in one of the most interesting corners of the domain economy: the space where domain traffic, user intent, typo correction, performance marketing and publisher monetisation meet. SitePlug is part of the Affinity 🇺🇸 ecosystem, a privacy-friendly ad-tech group operating across ad networks and SaaS products, with a focus on measurable outcomes, publisher monetisation and alternatives beyond the GOOG-FB duopoly. At SitePlug, Jonathan works with publishers, domainers and partners around solutions that help high-intent users reach the right destination. For domain investors, the most relevant part is Site Direct: a solution built around monetising branded typo domains by redirecting users to the correct brand’s website, with brand-approved redirection and a domain-owner-friendly setup. This is not theoretical infrastructure. SitePlug’s materials describe Site Direct as trusted by top parking companies and domainers, supporting monetisation across 50 countries, with 2,000 active brands and 100,000 branded typo domains being redirected to brand websites. That makes Jonathan’s perspective especially valuable. Because domains are not only names. They are also traffic, mistakes, intent, recovery, trust and sometimes the difference between a lost user and a completed transaction. Jonathan is already known to many in the Domain Summit community. At Domain Summit Europe 2025 in London, he spoke about how SitePlug mastered the art of monetising misspelled domains. For Domain Summit Europe 2026, Jonathan brings exactly the kind of practical knowledge we want in Kempten: commercial, technical, publisher-focused, domain-relevant, and close to the real monetisation layer of the internet.

Good morning @NameClubDomains! Do you offer an API for your domain auctions at nameclub.com/auctions? We would love to explore integrating your auction inventory into our live domain auction feeds across several established domain investor communities. For example, on DNForum we already run a live .com auction feed here: dnforum.com/live-domain-auct… From your auctions page, we can see a very large inventory — 555,000 domains overall — including great coverage across .com, .net, .ai, .io and other gTLDs, as well as ccTLDs. This will be valuable for NameClub because we help surface active domain auctions directly in front of domain investors, brokers, developers, registrars, hosting companies and end-user buyers across our forum network. We would be interested in integrating in the feed of our family forums: .com, .net, .ai, .io and other gTLDs into DNForum .uk / .co.uk into @acorndomains: acorndomains.co.uk/live-doma… .de into @ConsultDomainDE: consultdomain.de/live-domain… .fr into forumndd.com/live-domain-auc… .nl and .be into 27.be/live-domain-auction-fe… .. and there are few more :) there would be no cost to NameClub for this. Not now, not later :) We also do not attach affiliate tags or tracking links. The feeds use clean destination URLs, sending interested buyers directly to the relevant NameClub auction pages. For NameClub, this means extra targeted visibility, clean referral traffic, and potentially more bidding activity from established domain communities — without any integration fee or affiliate arrangement required. Do you have an API, data feed, XML/JSON export, affiliate feed, or any partner integration option for your auctions? Shall we look into this? Happy Sunday! @helmutsmeskonis
