What is the value of a domain name?
Yesterday, as part of the WHD.Global 2016 conference, I’ve attended an interesting live domain name auction. It was a great experience to better understand this business that I’ve forgot for many years, and to see what’s the real value of a domain name these days.
SSL protection and its legacy problems, or is it greed and laziness?
