They used to be really harsh, almost equating SEOs with spammers. They’ve since toned down that text. Take what they say with a grain of salt but there’s some useful info there.

Also, for domainers learning about SEO, Aaron Wall’s SEObook.com is a good place to start. Note that he’s included on Frank Schilling’s blogroll (via sevenmile.com).

I find many of these registrars and their affiliated drop catchers no longer drop “good” domains. SnapN*mes is still holding a domain that I have a trademark application on that they promised to release to me a month back. They caught the drop after the previous guy had the good sense not to renew the domain. And I’ve had the domain on my backorder list for very long time.

I’ll give them a little more time. So far I’ve been dealing with them on a personal level. If nothing happens, I’ll have my lawyers send them a nice letter along with a list of the typo trademarks they’re warehousing and squatting on. I’m sure that will light an immediate fire under these people.

After Enom.com “stole” my domain and were rude to me even in the face of their own email notification of my payment and my avowal that I had my MasterCard summary in front of my eyes. Both were dated before expiry date. I had autorenew set. They will not release my “dropped” domain because they didn’t credit the money to my account until 3 days later even though it showed on my account page within a second and sent me a receipt and let me buy another domain with some of the money in my balance and even though my credit card WAS on file with them.

Earlier today I notice that this domain goes to their parking site and I get told and I quote “you snooze you lose”, pony up the $160 and be glad we even let you do that (paraphrased). Well, in a rage I start looking for kindred spirits to get together with at “enomsucks.com” but they own it, also .net,org,info,tv,biz – all owned by them.

But evidently they don’t have much confidence in the .me or .us TLD’s so I now own http://enomsucks.me and http://enomsucks.us and I set up brand-new installations of wordpress. So as not to become consumed with bitterness yet wanting the site to rank well ( as I see great potential for a registrar directory site or something ) I decided to make it sort of a guide to working with SEO in mind right from the start.

So this is sort of on topic. I’ll be detailing the methods I’m using as I develop the site. First part is up, each site took under 5 minutes so far and I’ll be detailing the plugins that I’ll be using and demonstrating some SEO methods applied to themes in coming days.

So this is sort of fortuitous in that we can all see how well it all works out, a fortuitous angle to an ugly (for me) incident as I’ve just spent 5 hours clicking on various links to transfer 100 domains away so far.
