before they do press releases. Their June 12th press release had this:

"NameMedia, which already is profitable, says it owns more Internet domain names than any other party and draws more than 25 million consumers monthly to its vast collection of websites. It makes money when computer users type the name of one of its sites, such as photography.com, bookstore.com, or jobfinder.com, into the Internet address bar and then click on advertising links."

They don't own bookstore.com. I do. Maybe one of their competitors might like to buy it now. :peace:

Mistakes happen, especially when you own 640,000 domains..

They may have meant to list bookshop.com instead. But you are definitely getting some free publicity for your domain -- maybe your revenue will increase and some nice offers may come in as well.

I love my life if I was you. Keep up the good work. Also have your traffic and offers increased?
