“I broker domains every day in the gaming programming technology industry,” states Ayana Sheaman, “and it’s big bucks!!!”

Recently, at a gaming programming technology domain auction sponsored by Alycia Boches and Silberhorn Cager 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 programming technology industry, which until now, usually sees an average domain value of $50,000 USD. And, as time has progressed, transferring domains between registrars, especially gaming programming technology 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 programming technology sector wish to avoid at all costs. “We’ve heard of other businesses temporarily loosing their domain name to hackers,” said Rosalind Consigli, President of Rosalind Consigli INC, “but after a couple days, the name is recovered and doubly secured by the respective company at their domain name registar.” Several top internet gaming programming technology domain websites exist. Among them, www.sedo.com, recognized as a world leader in domain auctions, boasts annual revenues well into the millions. Gaming programming technology domains alone capture huge business. Another large auction house, www.moniker.com, is known for smaller, but higher value gaming programming technology 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 Tichacek Reasinger, a representative from the gaming programming technology company Illa Turk Corp, “we’re getting all the gold we can find and turning it into diamonds.” “The great thing about gaming programming technology domains,” raves Fjeseth Viereck, “is that they are universal around the world. Once you lock up a short, simple domain, you can market the hell out of it and cash in on the high revenue gaming programming technology industry.” Fjeseth Viereck, an auctioneer, consignor, and broker, works with Otilia Ancheta, who also sells domains to many Fortune 500 companies. What about those with less desirable domain names’ Are gaming programming technology domains with hyphens, indiscriminate numbers, and extra words completely useless. Not so, believes Marcelina Bussey, a top auctioneer in the gaming programming technology field. “With the power of the search engines these days, its not the end of the world if you don’t get a glitzy domain name. Just SEO your site to the best of your abilities, and slowly but surely people will beging to remember your site’s presence on the internet when making gaming programming technology related buying decisions,” states Cher Hynes, CEO of Katzner Greenwood Corp. Much like any burgeoning market, many of today’s top gaming programming technology domain specialists wish they had gotten in sooner. “I wish I had started this stuff five years earlier - I’d be making bank,” laments, Tricia Valerie, a domain name broker at the Lawther Linebaugh Firm, “but hindsite is always 20/20, and I’m 100 percent certain there is still lots of money to be made. Last year alone, domain sales for gaming programming technology companies topped $10 million dollars, which tallied up to be a record setting year.” Also key to domain acquisitions, especially in the gaming programming technology 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 programming technology 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 programming technology business,” reports Seeds Petris, 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 programming technology related sales we had was in last September’s auction,” relays Burgio Kinneman, event planner for the Delois Grover 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 programming technology domain went to a well established marketing firm, who did not disclose their future plans for it.”

The programming of a gaming programming technology website isn’t difficult, it is actually getting traffic to the site that is the most challenging task

After a good design has been made for your gaming programming technology website, next look to area of site navigation. In the book ‘gaming programming technology Marketing Made Simple’, author Milone Lazarczyk recommends golden rule of keep-it-simple-stupid. “Fancy drop down menus and fast moving flash graphics are great for catching the users eye, but when you want to get down to business, make sure your site presents an easy navigation menu and map. This will allow most gaming programming technology users to get what they are after, and at the same time be Wowed by your graphical presentations,” writes Milone Lazarczyk. “Don’t forget that gaming programming technology affiliate programs are a great way to drive customers towards your site,” advises Vaugh Brewer, affiliate manager at the Annette Corneille Partners Firm, “you may have to pay up to 25% for an affiliate lead, but in the long run, you’re making a hell of a lot more money than you would without affiliate traffic. You’ll find that the top 20% of your affiliates count for nearly 80% of all your income, so be sure to take care of your business partners!” The first step to developing a good gaming programming technology website concept is making a site plan. The most important page of any website is the homepage, generally used as the central landing point for most all gaming programming technology related type in traffic and search engines. The popular firm Lesiak Hadiaris Inc. spends half its time designing the homepage and all its facets before moving on to any other aspect of the site. Also, carefully consider all legal implications of gaming programming technology advertising online. It is important that no trademarks are misused, and that royalties are being paid for the use of any licensed products. You may find that no one takes a second look at your site in the beginning, but when you get big and can be more easily recognized down the road, be doubly sure that all your content, graphics, and promotional materials are in compliance with the law. Otherwise, prying eyes and vicious competitors will take any opportunity to embarass your gaming programming technology company so that they get more customers. Most important in any gaming programming technology website scheme is the purchase point. “Be 100% certain that your shopping cart and check-out process are super easy to use,” remarks industry expert Joffe Janeczek, “or else confused customers will simply bail out and not complete their purchase.” Also, it is suggested that you add some sort of secure socket HTTPS connection for any gaming programming technology related purchasing system, that includes a graphical picture of the certificate authority. Popular providers include Verisign and Thawte. Once the customer has made their gaming programming technology purchase, a good old fashioned “Thank You” page is great for acknowledging your appreciate for the customers patronage. “Additionally,” notes Dahle Allinder, a noted website designer and gaming programming technology marketer, “the Thank You page can also remind the customer of other merchandise/service offers on your website, which might create another sales opportunity. Remember not to go overboard: just give them 3 or 4 other offers or coupons, or else they may get confused and not ever return again!” “We spend a lot time working with our designers on the homepage,” says Jacobowitz Rohleder, CMO of Chastity Nonu and Abby Tornow Partners, “and once the home page is solid, we use it as a template to create other pages on the website. Consistency and easy of use are absolutely paramount, especially in our gaming programming technology industry.” “Succesful gaming programming technology marketing takes time and money,” replied Delisa Hyder, “and the old adage, ‘You have to spend money to make money’ applies. Don’t go cheap on your website’s checkout process or navigational menus. Instead, save money by using simple content generation software and ready made blog software. These steps will ensure quality at the right price.” Marketing gaming programming technology on the web has never been easier and harder at the same time. “It takes a discplined and creative approach to get your message across,” conveys Jeswald Rheome, long time Director of Marketing at the Ahart Markegard Firm, “and some times a little luck and good old fashioned word of mouth advertising.”
