Domain Name Interviews

Adam Dicker and Michael Cyger will pick one domain name and walk the whole T.R.A.F.F.I.C audience through everything — from “A to Z” in building that domain name into a real business.

The session will include evaluating the size of the market, determining the best business model to monetize the business, what products/services could be offered, what content will need to be written for the website, what functionality the website will require, what the ongoing marketing plan should include, how to find and form business partnerships and affiliates, and much more.

Traditionally, a business is established with a name and a telephone number that do not change. A domain name should be considered an equally essential part of conducting business.

Although not a required element of registering a business, a domain name allows a business to establish a website, create its online identity and build its overall brand. All of which lead to marketing success.
