Will the importance of domain names decline in the future?
Will AI, voice-activated devices and non-visual web browsers reduce the importance of great domains in the future? Frank Schilling comes on the show this week to respond to my prediction for the future and discuss what he thinks the drivers of domain growth and importance will be. Also: Escrow.com verification process, Sony’s new sites, stolen domains.

Frank is right and you are wrong Andrew about AI assistant’s. I usually disagree with Frank and agree with you on most topics, but not this time.
Door closes, window opens is a great example of why he is right about domain names living on in the face of AI assistant’s.
It’s not like .Com domain names are going to disappear either, but unfortunately a lot of nTLD’s will.
There are way too many nTLD’s too choose from! It just makes .Com look even stronger, not weaker.
There should not be another round of nTLD’s either. There is no nTLD that will come out better than .Web. IMO
ccTLD’s will continue to grow stronger though.
Funny discussion about 100 roll toilet paper! Haha
Bad pic of Frank, he looks like he just got out of bed! Sorry Frank. Lol
It would be a good idea to get different guests Andrew. Why don’t you use PodcastGuests.com? 🙂
I have used it to get guests in the past, but will do so again. We have two new guests coming the next two weeks 🙂
