2007 The Year the Domain Business Hits Mainstream
Sure the domain business had articles in Business 2.0 and other press mentions in the past, but Kevin Ham’s “coming out” in the cover story “The Man Who Owns the Internet” in Business 2.0 marked the biggest coverage from the domain space yet. The year also marked NameMedia’s IPO announcement, which spotlighted the domain name business model to the investment world. Other notable domain name “mainstreaming” topics include Forbes coverage of Richard Rosenblatt’s Demand Media, Lawrence Ng winning Ernst and Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year and Sedo winning the same Ernst and Young award in Germany. This positive mainstream recognition and coverage in 2007 was much greater than ever and will help push the growth and interest in the domain space . . . however, with this mainstreaming comes more responsibility and naturally more scrutiny.
