Domainer Show – Episode 7

by 5 Comments

We’ve got an amazing Domainer Show for you today!

How much guts does it take to whack down over $1.3 million AU on a three-letter .com domain name?

Plenty!

That’s how much Michael Gargiulo paid for VPN.com last year after years of negotiating on his own, followed by engaging a domain broker to take it over the line.

We asked Michael the steps he took to be able to build various businesses up to a point where he could land this dream domain name and then dominate his desired industry.

There’s not only so much great domain name purchasing advice in this episode, but tons of awesome business-start-up advice too!

In this week’s episode of the Domainer Show we discuss domain name trademark issues and reverse domain name hijacking problems in our own backyard.

It appears many Australian business owners require further education that Australian domain names are valuable digital assets and managers and directors shouldn’t attempt to steal them with vexatious complaints.

Due to this show consisting of some important legal topics, we decided to ask Erhan Karabardak to help us get to the crux of these problems.

Erhan Karabardak is a technology lawyer and Trade Marks Attorney. He is a Director of Cooper Mills Lawyers and has been practising law for more than 20 years.

Erhan is also active in the domain name industry and represents domain name registrars and resellers, and has advised some of the world’s largest domain name registrars. Erhan is recognised as an expert in domain name law and has run some of the leading cases in the area.
