- Poll: What Are Your Domaining Plans for 2009?Today
-
I did a quick poll on Twitter the other day asking my followers how many of them planned to launch a new startup in 2009. 100% of respondents stated that they would indeed be starting new businesses this year! I wasn’t very surprised, as those who did not have plans probably didn’t respond. However, it’s always fun to see growth in the industry before it happens.
Now let’s get some details! This is a multiple-choice poll and also has an option to add your own answer. So take a minute to think about your domaining plans for 2009 and check off all the answers that you think you will be doing this year.
Thanks for participating! Look forward to seeing the results and please leave a comment if you want to share details about your plans for 2009!

- Interview With @NameCheap: The Most Popular Registrar on TwitterDecember 31 2008
-
Many web developers, designers and now domainers are flocking like an army of little blue birds to Twitter, a social status service that allows you to share what you are doing in 140 characters or less. Over the Holidays, NameCheap.com ran a wildly successful trivia contest promotion which amassed them a huge number of followers. This is the story of their success on Twitter.
About how many Twitter followers did @NameCheap have before your contest began?
Maybe 30. We set it up and used to to answer basic questions and offer specials, but it wasn’t something used regularly. (NameCheap now has 4,221 followers!)
What has the response from contest participants been?
Overwhelmingly, they loved it. Many people asked for more contests. It was blogged about quite a bit as well, with some participants even showing how to answer the quickest. Even the CEO of Twitter, Evan Williams, mentioned how much he liked the idea.
What was the total amount of domain names that were won?
Over 600.
Who organized all the Christmas trivia questions? I’m sure they deserve some recognition.
