National A-1 — NATIONAL A-1 PAYS TOP DOLLAR FOR PREMIUM DOMAINS, FOCUSING ON THE BEST OF BOTH GENERAL AND ADULT-ORIENTED NAMES.

While our aim is to make money developing and selling domain names, we also have a lot of interest in blogging about the industry and our own experience as domainers.

We’re still figuring out the whole domaining thing – but we’re enjoying it. While we don’t make money full time with domain names, we spend a lot of our free time blogging about them, typically about topics that interest us as we learn more and more on how to improve the way we do things.

This week, we landed a big advertiser on our website: National A-1 Advertising, one of the most talked-about and most exciting domain companies — who own some of the best properties on the web like free.com, girls.com, pizza.com, cash.com and literally thousands more of the same top caliber.

National A-1 is in a rare class of Domain-related companies who certainly bring buzz and attention to the industry.

It’s a very generous sponsorship and we are grateful for it.

And a BIG THANKS goes to Francois for his fantastic platform (http://www.domaining.com/) that allows domainers to reach out to the masses.

If you have a premium name – not just a great name – for sale, National A-1 offers top dollar.

We haven’t made a big marketing push yet to Banks or Issuers, but we’ve soft launched the Student Loan Center site so we can work on SEO and uploading content.

We acquired StudentLoanCenter.com on the domain aftermarket last year and even the type-in traffic is over a thousand visitors each month. If you’re a domainer or webmaster and have advice on the best way to get quality listings, we’d love to hear from you.

We also acquired StudentLoanCenter.org, shortly after we picked up the .com on NameJet.

Obviously, the biggest challenge will be ensuring we have high quality listings and resources on the website, so we can have a trustworthy brand and that’s what we’re striving to do. We were going to use our CJ.com ‘Commission Junction’ account to post affiliate ads, but on the advice of other Domainers, we decided against it since we could probably generate more revenue through direct advertising.

The site has a long way to go, but if you have time, we’d appreciate your feedback.
