GoldKey Domain Sold, Customers Need to Change DNS

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

NameMedia sells domain name from legacy domain parking service.

NameMedia has been merging its domain parking platforms for a couple months, but a number of domain owners have yet to make necessary changes to their domains on the NameMedia platform.

In particular, GoldKey and ActiveAudience accounts have been upgraded to SmartName. NameMedia sold the Goldkey.com domain name at the beginning of the year, meaning that domains parked on ns1.goldkey.com are no longer resolving, leaving money on the table for domainers. According to a name server report at DomainTools, there are currently over 25,000 domains pointing to GoldKey, so a lot of traffic isn’t resolving. Customers should login to their upgraded accounts at SmartName to check stats and update their name servers.

Once you change your DNS to SmartName, customers should check out some of the new SmartName products such as the content system and SmartName Shops.
