Thanks for test driving it, Andrew.
I love the 30 vs 365-day search momentum prompt. A great use case.

Is this a new thing?
Got this email recently titled, "Someone else is interested in (domain).com." The domain is one I enquired about a few months ago.
English
@TonyNames This would be a welcome feature @JamesIles. Hard to keep track when names are removed from a portfolio. Sedo/Spaceship both have email alerts when a name is removed from listings.
English
Sold a name via Sedo. Namecheap feed
Afternic name server
I should have paid 15% via afternic but the good folks at afternic even after repeated complaints will not give an audit log of names they will remove from the portfolio for no reason.
I mean it is a full time job just relisting names and I stopped trying
Even Sedo gives a lot names that they removed. How hard can it be.
English
No em dashes.
Don't include "it's not X, it's Y" constructions
Avoid tricolon and three-part parallel lists
No arrows
Reduce LLM-safe truths (filler observations)
Don't include "quietly" or "actually" modifiers (or similar)
KP@thisiskp_
"never use em dashes" what other system prompts do you all give to LLMs?

@Name__Groove @ArtenaPro @GoDaddy @Klarna @AlanShiflett Hey @ArtenaPro, sorry to hear about that experience - can you DM me the domain name, and we'll make sure our Auction team's aware while you're completing the payment.
English
@ArtenaPro @GoDaddy @Klarna If you didn't pay the remaining installments, would GoDaddy still be paid? I'm guessing not. And you'd still own the name.
However, assuming this is why GoDaddy disallows Klarna for auctions, they shouldn't allow it in the cart as an option
fyi @jamesiles @AlanShiflett
English
Fucking @Godaddy and @Klarna 🤬
I won a domain in auction for more than $500 I immediately paid on the Godaddy PLATFORM through Klarna with a first payment at €332 and 2 payments at €103. this one was debited but Godaddy says it was not paid, while Klarna says that it is Godaddy who does not accept the transaction. I’ve been going around in circles for 2 days and I’m losing the domain + an image of bad payer because their shit system is badly calibrated it’s nonsense!
Godaddy’s solution made the purchase again we will check later 🤯
Never use these services in case of problem you will not get anywhere
English
@GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp @jamesiles Can anyone please help me with this. Domains won't remain available. I am not new at Godaddy. It's been years i am using Godaddy, it has never happened. Chat support says team is not available right now. Wow!
English
Is someone from @Godaddy @GoDaddyHelp available right now ? I registered 5 domain names. The payment deducted from the card, and receipt was also received in email but domains are still not registered and chat support says, it can take 24 hours. Are you serious ?
English
@manicmillion @GoDaddy Hey Ryan, I'm seeing my cart defaulting to one-year. Nonetheless, for registrations, take a look at Bulk Search (godaddy.com/domains/bulk-d…)
Carts are single-year through there.
English
@DomainDanHQ @hypernames @TonyNames @LeanneMac Oh man. I have so much on my plate, I did forget. Let me get these done today.
English
@hypernames @TonyNames @LeanneMac @jamesiles once promised me a pair for uncovering a rather embarrassing issue with Afternic . Maybe that’s my fate . He never sent them .
English
I missed the 100k mark in June by a few grands, but it would have been another stellar month if not for the usual unknown Afternic Issue
The unknown afternic issue happens from time to time and back in the day I would smell it and switch landers to DAN.
Can’t even do that now
June was another such month
Any big afternic users would confirm
For me, no confirmation needed
I got 3 sales via Sedo and that speaks for itself. Even got a 22K sale via Dynadot. Got more Whois inquiry than usual. Usually means afternic is unreachable but they won’t be able to reproduce it.
All you see is the result.

Etched comes out of stealth with a huge $800 million in funding and some impressive backers (Peter Thiel, Andrej Karpathy, etc).
As a domain geek, I just focused on the branding...
✅ Exact-match .com (looks like an upgrade from the .ai)
✅ Exact-match social handles
🧑🍳🤌
Etched@Etched
We're coming out of stealth. We've built our first racks after a successful A0 tapeout, $1B+ in customer contracts, and $800m raised. Early customer tests show us achieving SOTA throughput, latency, and power efficiency on inference workloads. Our first racks ship this summer.
English
@DInvesting @afternic @GoDaddy @AlanShiflett 💯 - this is coming in the second half of the year. For now, if you use List for Sale through your GoDaddy portfolio manager, that will eliminate the need for verification.
English
When I list a domain name on @afternic that I hand registered at @GoDaddy, verification should not be needed.
@jamesiles @AlanShiflett
English
@jamesiles @DavidSustiel I don't see the new one yet, can you export domains with prices in the new one?
English
@DotWeekly @DavidSustiel It should be much better in the last few months. If you spot anything, we'll fix it.
English
@DavidSustiel Yep! That's a new redesign we're testing. Let me know what you think as you use it! And let me know what's missing :)

@jamesiles @nglaix How dare you take a vacation!
:)
Thanks for looking into it
English
Any word on this @jamesiles ?
Anglais@nglaix
There appears to be a transfer bug affecting @Afternic sales of .tech domains. They didn't offer a timeline for a fix and no clarification if it affects all @RadixRegistry extensions or just @DotTechDomains. For now the only fix I can see is to remove/change the lander for all .tech domains (and potentially Radix TLDs) until more information is available. Unfortunately I've already had a $10,000 sale cancelled on me due to the bug. I asked about connecting with the buyer directly seeing as Afternic can't fulfill the sale but of course they aren't willing to share that information.
English
@DomainDanHQ @sardarabassi1 Hey Dan. Just back from vacation. It's on my radar and I'll check in with the team on where they're at with reviewing this and any dependencies.
English
Would be much better if @GoDaddy @DNAcademy have me the GoValue API access. It’s seems a little unfair I pay hundreds of dollars a year for Domain academy, and have access to their GoValue data (150 per day) but they won’t give me API access even though they have a specific GoValue API set up and ready to use . I wish they would consider this.
@jamesiles did say he would put a query in with the team but not heard anything .
English
🤔 Let’s do a little experiment…
If Pizza.co went to a public auction today with NO reserve price…
What do you think the final sale price would be? 🍕🚀
💰 $10,000?
💰 $100,000?
💰 $1,000,000+?
I’m genuinely curious to hear what the domain community thinks
