What else to expect from a registrar who focuses on such? :-D

Moniker.com, an ICANN accredited domain name registrar, today announced that it has won a special secure domain registration award presented at the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Domain Name Conference in Delray Beach Florida.

The award is given by the WADND for registrars that have been diligent and cooperative in working with registrants to help them prevent hijacking and recover stolen domains.

The World Association of Domain Name Developers (WADND) was formed in 2004 to create a worldwide organization where Internet users could find desired results with maximum efficiency and web vendors could achieve profitability through the demand created by an unlimited supply of quality visitors. WADND will also be awarding seals that registrars meeting high level standards in security and customer service will be able to display on their websites.

I must say those guys are as tight as a doornail, whenever I lock into my Moniker account, I feel I'm being watched

This industry is gradually maturing. Everywhere else vested interests form professional associations and start handing out worthless gongs to each other!

I must admit I had not hear of WANWD, but then they have only been around since about last week, by the look of things. Could you please clarify the difference for the uninitiated, what the difference is between an Award and a Special Award?

Ah, a dash of good ol' British cynicism :evil:

I think it pays to be cynical otherwise you just get worked over.

I am also beginning to realise that there is more to this game than meets the eye. Traffic is everything but it is also ephemeral, can be manufacturered, redirected, sold and then just stolen away. I am also beginning to realise than Typo's are potentially the largest area of abuse. I very much doubt whether there any systems in place to prevent the manufacture of Overture Scores, which is bad enough on a good name let alone a Typo. Even if there were, you could soon get around it.

The art is obviously to create the Overture before you register it to reduce suspicion. When you have got your overture on some obscure name nobody was ever likely to want, you register it and tout it on here as some great find.

When things start to go against you in the appraisals, just get your imaginary friend or alias to come in and back you up, that it is usually enough to silence the descension.

In the virtual world of smoke and mirrors, how the hell do you really know what is going on. Believe me cynicism is the only real defense you have against the scoundrel!

Was it Shakespeare who said;

"All the world's a stage, and every man must play his part" ?

There was this book recently about .COM. I believe the title is

'.COM, A Story Well Sold'

Yes, he was ahead of his time. But it is a shame he wasn't around today. He would have made a bloody good domainer:cheeky:

I've got to say that it is really refreshing to have you verterans around...there have been times when I consider not spending much time here anymore (due to newbie/rookie posts and appraisals) but you guys always keep me coming back

Yes, he would have wiped the floor with me in the Chinese IDN market that is for sure!
