			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It might be that I&#8217;m just a bonehead, but I can&#8217;t get my head around the <a title="Snapnames" href="https://www.snapnames.com/?aff=4335">Snapnames</a> user interface. Every time I visit the site I get discouraged because either I can&#8217;t find what I&#8217;m looking for, or I can&#8217;t find a way to download the lists I need. Snapnames.com is the legendary site for expired domain auctions and most domainers use it, so they must have done something right and it must be that I&#8217;m just a bit thick. To me, finding domains at Snapnames is not a &#8217;snap&#8217;. Plus, I always have some trouble with their search feature. I always seem to be doing something wrong.</p>
<p>I mean, finding single domain names, sure, that&#8217;s a snap. But for a serious domainer, that&#8217;s not good enough. What you need is large scale search features and fully customizable download lists. For instance, I noticed that Newfound Names are trimming their portfolio and <a title="Geo names at Snapnames" href="https://www.snapnames.com/?aff=4335&amp;ns=27728">selling 3,000 geo names through Snapnames private auctions</a>. I would have loved to peruse their list, but Snapnames doesn&#8217;t give a &#8216;download search results&#8217; option, but gives at most 100 results per page. Am I going to click through the 30+ pages and copy-paste everything into Estibot domain extractor? Nope, too time consuming. I want a downloadable list of all those names that I can feed to the Estibot keyword tools. If they had an option to view all 3,000 names on a single page, then sure, I could copy-paste it to the Estibot bulk tools, but as I said they only display 100 results per page.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a turn-off for me. I built my tools specifically for eliminating the need for manual browsing of domain lists. I need large-scale bulk stuff, man. Maybe the guys at <a href="http://www.newfoundnames.com/snapnames/3000-geo-domain-names/">Newfound Names</a> might consider setting up a downloadable list of those names on their site, or email me their list. If they do, I&#8217;ll reward them by promoting their names on Estibot: I&#8217;ll run the whole list through my keyword and valuation tools and set it up for everyone to see. Estibot gets almost a million hits per month, so it should get some eyeballs.</p>
<p>As some of you may know, I publish daily Snapnames lists on Estibot &#8211; pre-analyzed with overture, appraisal and other data. Just go to <a href="http://estibot.com/members/droplists/">the Expiring Domains Lists</a> page (if you&#8217;re a member). What you get is daily pending delete plus premium Snapnames auctions and Namejet prerelease auction lists, pre-analyzed complete with appraisal plus keyword statistics, all a few days in advance so you have plenty of time to place those bids.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m happy to report that the Droplists are now up-to-date, and from now on<br />
will be posted 2 to 3 days before the auction/drop date. I am also pleased<br />
to announce a partnership with GoDaddy, enabling me to add TDNAM lists<br />
there soon.</p>
<p>You can view the pre-analyzed Namejet and Snapnames lists here:<br />
http://estibot.com/members/droplists/</p>
<p>Make sure you visit my partner site PremiumDrops.com also for some<br />
powerful expired domain tools.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m also pleased to announce a partnership between Estibot.com and<br />
AEIOU.com. In case you&#8217;re not familiar with them yet, they provide<br />
development for domain names &#8211; included in the package is a well-designed<br />
mini-site, free hosting, and a SEO link building/marketing campaign.</p>
<p>Domain development is the next step after parking. As we all know, parking<br />
revenues are going down across the board. If you&#8217;ve read my recent<br />
interview at DNKitchen.com, you&#8217;ll know that my philosophy is to not have<br />
such domain names in one&#8217;s portfolio that do not create revenue.</p>
<p>Estibot.com and AEIOU.com are pleased to offer $10 off per site<br />
exclusively to Estibot users. To take advantage of the special offer,<br />
visit<br />
http://www.aeiou.com/estibotcom-special-offer/</p>
<p>As usual, I would not promote any service that I would not use myself. I<br />
believe the AEIOU.com offer adds value to your Estibot membership. I have<br />
bought development for several domain names from them, and I am pleased<br />
with the results. You can view some of the domains that I have had<br />
developed by them:<br />
Hypnotherapist.com<br />
LaplandTourism.com<br />
GrahamFlour.com<br />
OnlinePhDPsychology.com</p>
<p>Many of my domains are now climbing the Google SERPS, which they never did<br />
when parked. For instance, GrahamFlour.com is now #7 in Google for its own<br />
keywords, and OnlinePhDPsychology.com is #10 &#8211; that&#8217;s just weeks after the<br />
sites went live. Where previously there was no traffic, I&#8217;m now seeing<br />
visitors and revenue.</p>
<p>On another note, apologies once again for the delays in getting the bulk<br />
appraisal inconsistencies fixed. I have made real progress with that now<br />
and expect to launch a new, improved version within a few weeks.</p>
<p>Finally, I would like to invite you to share with me some domain names<br />
that you&#8217;ve found with the Estibot tools, or other stories on how you&#8217;ve<br />
used Estibot to your advantage. I would love to hear about your<br />
experiences. Also, although my to-do list is miles long, I am always open<br />
to your suggestions for improvements or new features.</p>
<p>Thank you for your continued support</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>More value to Estibot users: I&#8217;ve started publishing Namejet and Snapnames<br />
expired domain lists, pre-analyzed with a proprietary rapid bulk appraisal<br />
tool.</p>
<p>I realize that many of you wish to use just such a tool to analyze a large<br />
number of lists, but the current server setup will not be able to handle<br />
extensive use of the tool, so I wanted to do the next best thing &#8211; provide<br />
ready-made lists for you.</p>
<p>The lists will contain all the domain names that have an appraisal above<br />
zero. The tool may not detect all valuable names, and the appraisals are<br />
very rough, but the lists are helpful in quickly finding some of the<br />
potential deals in the lists that often contain an excess of 50,000 names<br />
each day, and are a pain to go through manually.</p>
<p>The lists are available to Pro and Exclusive members, and can be found<br />
here:<br />
<a href="http://estibot.com/members/droplists/">http://estibot.com/members/droplists/</a></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve just started adding them, so please allow for a few days to see a<br />
complete selection of up-to-date lists. In a few days&#8217; time I should have<br />
up-to-date lists for you, and I&#8217;ll keep updating them so you&#8217;ll always<br />
find the lists here.</p>
<p>If you are an avid user of Snapnames or Namejet, make sure you visit<br />
PremiumDrops.com, which specializes in analyzing drop lists very<br />
effectively. My lists have a slightly different approach, and are provided<br />
as a courtesy to my users only.</p>
