I know they got these two letter names, maybe more. I don't really want to know, that makes me nuts. :mad:

Beijing.com sure is a winner.
And internetcasino.com also excellent.
But all be wasted by Ult.

I can't help but admire Ulysearch for being able to get all the names he does, but I agree with most that it is a waste of good names. I have moderate success using expired names to help promote "relevant" products. I question whether the whole search portal thing he does is a very good business model?

Does anyone know if ultsearch let's anything drop after the first year, or do they re-reg everything?

I do see some crappy names dropped by Ultsearch.

I sometimes see good names owned by Ultsearch passed the expiry date, but they will be renewed and I never seen them dropped.

I'm sure he's making money on the portal thing as long as he monitors traffic accurately.

Example: you know exactly what each domain cost you, your renewal costs are very low (I expect he gets names at close to $6/yr), you know what each site visitor generates in profit (on average, after deducting overheads such as bandwidth), and you have a pretty good idea of how traffic drops off on domains over time. From that you can determine a break-even point where you know that if a domain generates X visitors/sales in the first 3 months then the domain is worth renewing (otherwise you let it drop). With a bit of programming skill this could all be automated so the break-even is updated over time and renewal decisions are made automatically.

Moral if the story is don't grab just for traffic anything he lets drop.
