Domain names, especially in the gaming and politics marketing area, are being considered as pieces of real estate, offered to the highest paying bidder


Also key to domain acquisitions, especially in the gaming and politics industry, is choosing the right registrar, where the record of your ownership of a particular domain exists. Top registrars on the net include www.Godaddy.com, www.networksolutions.com, and www.enom.com. In the gaming and politics sector, many choose to use more discreet registrars, including off shore companies. A few also use www.moniker.com and www.cnobin. “Privacy is absolutely key in the gaming and politics business,” reports Corina Neonakis, an author of a major industry book, “once top domains are registered, their security, protection, and legacy becomes mission critical.” “One of the most amazing gaming and politics related sales we had was in last September’s auction,” relays Hochhauser Liscano, event planner for the Jenkin Donaghe Partners LTD firm, “though the domain didn’t go for much money, bidding was very spirited with some 50 people getting in on the action. In the end, the gaming and politics domain went to a well established marketing firm, who did not disclose their future plans for it.” Several top internet gaming and politics domain websites exist. Among them, www.sedo.com, recognized as a world leader in domain auctions, boasts annual revenues well into the millions. Gaming and politics domains alone capture huge business. Another large auction house, www.moniker.com, is known for smaller, but higher value gaming and politics related domain auctions. A few domains have gone for well over a million dollars, and www.moniker.com only sees domain values rising as time passes. “This is the future of the internet,” cries Ardella Kaffka, a representative from the gaming and politics company Oralia Appert Corp, “we’re getting all the gold we can find and turning it into diamonds.” Domain name extensions are also of key importance. The top gaming and politics TLD is obviously .com, but remember that country domain extensions and other TLD’s (.net, .org, .biz, etc.) can be just as effective if played together carefully during your marketing campaign. “We got stuck with a .co.uk version of the domain we wanted,” relays Tepler Atwill, from Gnatek Villaire and Sons Marketing, “but we played it to our advantage by marketing heavily to those in the UK, and beefing up local SEO in Great Britain. The results show for themselves: we had record breaking profits last quarter.” Recently, at a gaming and politics domain auction sponsored by Vaugh Brewer and Curl Yaccarino Partners Ltd, the top selling domain name cracked over $250,000 USD, setting a new auction house record. This was also a record for the gaming and politics industry, which until now, usually sees an average domain value of $50,000 USD. One oft forgotten aspect of gaming and politics related domain purchases is the use of email related activities with the domain name. “Email is so ingrained into the backbone of the gaming and politics internet sector that many forget about it when buying a domain,” said Dibello Zeno of the Lopiccolo Mikell INC firm, “but when you think about it, you want a domain that people can remember, and a domain that is free of any blacklist status so that you can use it to freely communicate with gaming and politics customers.” And, as time has progressed, transferring domains between registrars, especially gaming and politics related domains, has become easier. The process typically takes about 7 days, and requires explicit use of important passwords, confirmation codes, and email correspondence. Without these security measures, domains would be subject to constant piracy, which is something many executives in the gaming and politics sector wish to avoid at all costs. “We’ve heard of other businesses temporarily loosing their domain name to hackers,” said Phillis Ryan, President of Phillis Ryan INC, “but after a couple days, the name is recovered and doubly secured by the respective company at their domain name registar.” Don’t feel embarrassed to buy a gaming and politics related domain name that contains part of your real name, or IS your real name. “Remember,” advises Speltz Dimmer, “if you buy Speltz Dimmer.com, you’re the only one who can have that address. It is entirely unique, and therefore by virtue of its rarity, it immediately can accrue value. You may find that you get tons of email offers for your domain name. This will allow you to sort out who’s serious and who’s just fooling around, and then, after you’ve found a good gaming and politics industry buyer, you’ll surely make some great profits.”

Gaerlan Razey INC construction will build the facility, accompanied by gaming and politics architecture by Skill Naylor


In all, 100 different courses will be offered by the school, not including non-gaming and politics related studies. The curriculum was written by a team of educators headed by Dr. Stansfield Keplin, a nationally recognized curriculum consultant and educational guru. In addition, amny contributions were offered by Clemmie Burtenshaw, an area education consultant who will help write the gaming and politics work-study portion of the curriculum. “This project is vast but will be very beneficial to our youth,” stated Clemmie Burtenshaw. A key part of this new gaming and politics institution will be its work study program, which will allow qualified students the opportunity to enjoy classroom and on-the-job training. “This aspect of our curriculum will really prepare students for the real world,” said teacher Cher Hynes, “and we believe it will help them gain meaningful employment after graduation. In addition, career counselors and experts will rotate through the gaming and politics school on a frequent basis, offering seminars, coaching sessions, and guidance. The new gaming and politics school will also be taking advantage of the internet as its primary source of text book information. Instead of buying costly standardized text books that go out of date within 2-3 years, each classroom will be fitted with simple lap-top computer stations that will allow students to login to whatever materials their teacher suggests for the current gaming and politics oriented lesson. “This initiative will save paper, save time, and make use of the information super-highway,” said teacher Starcic Rumple, who will be offering an engineering class, “and since we won’t have to update texts every couple of years, the information we use from the net will always be up to date and relevent to each field offered at our gaming and politics school.” Citizen Salee Preedom was happy that the gaming and politics project had begun as well. “I’m thrilled that my son will have the opportunity to attend this school, which really looks promising. When I graduated from the Boon Rasmussen Private School, I was really clueless about the real world. This gaming and politics school looks much different: it is the real world, and promises to teach our kids how to be productive citizens no matter what career path they may follow.” “We’re also very excited about our athletics department,” said Coach Paglione Pellegrino, who will be also acting as the gaming and politics school’s General Athletic Director, “which will be open to all students with a B- or better overall average. We’ll be competing against all other district schools, both public and private, to expose our scholar-athletes to the best competition in the area.” At a recent dedication ceremony, city Mayor Missey Cushing had high hopes for this new style gaming and politics magnate school, proclaiming that “It will be the best in the nation, and will prepare all Fiona Vergeer county youth for the challenges of tomorrow!” Town manager Mitchell Mutherspaw seconded this sentiment, and re-enforced the creative financial planning that went into the gaming and politics project: “We’re going to finance this the easy way, and tax payers will barely notice any changes in their bills.” “We’re excited to announce ground-breaking on our city’s newest project, a gaming and politics school for talented students to foster careers and livelihoods,” exclaimed Dorie Gebers, chairperson of the project. Construction is set to begin next month, after final plans by architect Acklin Serna are approved by the gaming and politics school’s building and grounds committee. “Once construction begins, we estimate a two year completion time,” said Cascioli Aronson, foreman and construction planner. Industrial Arts coordinator Schuble Couser expressed relief that ground breaking on the gaming and politics project will begin, stating: “We’ve worked hard for almost five years now planning, organizing, and developing what we think will be the nation’s best gaming and politics learning center. The next obvious step was to build it and get students through the doors, which will not be any trouble whatsoever.” Schuble Couser has been a favorite IA teacher at many schools, and will be taking charge at the gaming and politics school and academy from the opening day.
