Domain Name Wire launched four years ago today. Looking back, it’s certainly a time capsule of the domain name industry. Articles in that first month included:

“Moniker Unveils Paid Parking Program” – Moniker’s now closed TrafficClub program got its start

“Yahoo to challenge Google Adsense” – we all know how that played out

“Registrars drop .us privacy protection this week” – privacy protection was nixed from .us domain names

There are many reasons for Domain Name Wire’s longevity and success. Of course it starts with readers. Equally as important are the many advertisers. Growth in advertising has allowed a site that started as a part time hobby to turn into a nearly full-time endeavor.

I’d like to call your attention to a handful of advertisers that have been with the site for a long time. I appreciate all advertisers; here are some of those that have helped send DNW to the next level:

National A-1 Advertising – these guys want to buy your premium domains. Don’t believe me? They just bid $5M on toys.com

Sedo – domain brokerage and parking services

Domain Capital – domain name financing

Rebel.com – domain registrar for domainers

TrafficZ – exceptional domain management and parking

Escrow.com – the #1 choice for domain name escrow

Parked.com – high payouts, twice a month

NetFirms.com – longest running text ad sponsor

Please visit these advertisers and thank them for their support, along with all of the other advertisers (including the text link advertisers on the right).

Over the coming months, you can expect a few changes. The basic formula won’t change, but it will be tweaked. Site Graduate is helping me with a minor site redesign. And we’ll be adding more subject matter experts as writers. DNW has always had multiple writers, with me as the lead. This will stay the same but we’ll be adding more in the future. So stay tuned.
