The TRAFFIC Awards were present to the winners last night. Voting for the nominated parties started 2 months ago and as these are votes by domainers, well done to all that won the praise of their fellow domainers.
And the nominations and winners were...
Not sure about you, but the Domain Economy seems to be strong to me with over US$2.8 million worth of domain sales at Rick Latona domain auction at TRAFFIC NY 2009
The full list is below with final price...
If you are a domainer, you want to make as much money as possible when selling a domain.
One way to do it, is simply to not do anything and wait for people to contact you.
After all, if they contact you to buy a domain you own, while you have not done anything to publicise the fact you are willing to sell, it means they are highly motivated. And highly motivated buyers mean that they are more than likely to pay top dollar for the name.
If you want to sell high, keep your profile low.
Sedo tops the chart with two impressive six-figure sales that place both domains,
respectively in #16 and #27 position on DN Journal's YTD Top 100 Sales Chart.

Is this an indication of what we may see next week at T.R.A.F.F.I.C's Rick Latona and
Moniker auctions?
See you in New York City!
When looking at domain names made of several keywords, it is often tempting to consider linking them with an hyphen: keyword1-keyword2.com instead of keyword1keyword2.com
From a SEO point of view, there is no difference but it seems that culturally there is. In Germany and France, people tend to favor domains with hyphens, as they find them more legible.
In the rest of the world, the names with no hyphen are preferred.
My advice: if you can, buy both. If you cannot, take into consideration the target market before buying.
