			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I feel there are 3 main purposes why domainers setup personal blogs &#038; &#8220;blog&#8221;:</p>
<p>1.) To copy news feeds &#038; try to compile stats about their domaining
<limited> knowledge.<br />
2.) To brag about the next thing or current events that will lead to the &#8220;next reaction&#8221; Including their sales<br />
3.) The diehards who know certain &#8220;secrets&#8221; that no one else has figured out yet &#038; have no support from others &#8211; other than hate.</p>
<p>I classify myself as #3. And so far I am still in business. I am not a huge domainer, but by my post counts at the forums &#8211; don&#8217;t cut me down to a nobody. </p>
<p>We&#8217;ll see how long this &#8220;blog&#8221; stays up in business after current events take place. The best place to try to position yourself is to be a #3. Then after you position yourself with your knowledge, the proper domains or technology is to try &#038; pitch a sale &#038; execute it &#8211; including all the diligent labor to make both parties happy &#038; put cash into your pocket.</p>
<p>#3 is often skewed as a &#8220;given&#8221; factor but it&#8217;s not. If you do it long enough, it can become fulltime.  </p>
<p>Then concentrating on the &#8220;next person&#8221; to read your posts, buy what you have to offer. Or what would the &#8220;domaining&#8221; world like to hear next? Not the same news, but instead.. Unique news! </p>
<p>Straight from the Horse&#8217;s Mouth. What do you do all day? I work fulltime &#038; I manage to blog &#038; domain.. Always setting new foot steps for the &#8220;next&#8221; domainer to follow with ease. That would be my response.</p>
<p>I am anti-blogging. Twitter gives me a headache &#038; facebook gives me friend requests I don&#8217;t want to deal with. Being a social butterfly in person or on a blog is totally different from trying to mix new friends with your habitual tasks. </p>
<p>I just want to do my thing &#8211; meaning: A.) Compile a comprehensive drop list,  B.) Schedule my tasks &#038; C.) go for the kill. I find it amusing that others don&#8217;t do #3 because they feel someone will snipe their domains. Or they don&#8217;t have the knowledge.</p>
<p>IMHO &#8211; knowledge or skills are not necessary in domaining. It&#8217;s purely based on luck &#038; the next buyer&#8217;s outcome that happens. What will you do next?</p>
<p>Where will YOU be tomorrow? Where do you really want to be tomorrow, in 1 yr? in 5 yrs? 10?</p>
<p>I feel like blogging is more of a vent then a commodity. Hope that changes around the community soon.</p>
