Premium Domain Treasure Chest Pried Opened With Yummy Name

Tucows Opens Hidden Treasure Chest of Premium Domains with YummyNames

Allows marketers to search and select from thousands of superior domain names to enhance marketing and branding initiatives

TORONTO, Oct. 29 - Tucows Inc., (AMEX:TCX, TSX:TC) a global provider of domain names, email and other Internet services, today announced the launch of YummyNames, a new service providing exclusive access to a large selection of premium domain names from the Tucows Domain Name Portfolio. Created especially with marketers in mind, YummyNames allows people to search for and obtain the perfect domain name for their organization from tens of thousands of high-quality domain names.

A few of the YummyNames domain names available include countryrock.com, divorced.com, lemons.com, listener.com, mygarden.com, thepub.com, tool.com and veggies.com.

Marketers seeking high-quality domain names for their company, clients or campaigns can go to
http://www.yummynames.com and search through a large portfolio of premium domain names. They have the option of purchasing a name outright or leasing the domain name for a finite period of time, the latter being a payment option particularly advantageous for short-term or seasonal marketing campaigns.

Developed and managed by a team of marketing and domain name veterans at Tucows, YummyNames is also a useful resource for SMB owners who recognize that obtaining a high-quality domain name is critical to the success of their business. "It's important for marketers and organizations to realize they don't need to settle on a lousy domain name," said Bill Sweetman, General Manager, YummyNames. "Domain names are a vital component to successfully marketing a brand - whether it's the launch of a new company, website or marketing campaign. A high-quality domain name is short, relevant and most important, easy to remember. We're excited to open the Tucows portfolio of premium domains to the public through YummyNames. We're confident users will find their perfect name."

"YummyNames, the public face of our domain portfolio service group, provides an additional means by which to realize the value of our domain portfolio assets to drive continued growth for the Company," said Elliot Noss, President and CEO, Tucows.

Sick Of Telemarketing Calls? Trace & Document Them!

Following my last telemarketing call, I decided I have had enough. I have been getting a LOT of those automated calls where the message talks about how you can save money on your credit cards? I get at least one a week and for a while I was getting one a day. The phone company says it's a scam and that's why there is no caller ID and if you use *69 is says the number cannot be found.

So I called Qwest today and found some things out that I thought I would share with others. If you don't live in Minnesota you should check your local service to see if what I'm going to tell you applies.

1) There's not much Qwest can do by themselves. They can give you a new number, but I'm damned if I'm going to change MY lifestyle and get a new number because of this crap. You can report the calls to the FTC and State Attorney General's office, but without information, what can they do??

2) I found out you can use *57 to trace the caller. YOU can't get the information, but the authorities can use this to go after the jerks that bother you or try to pull scams. When you use *57, you hang up on the caller, then pick up and dial it. What happens is that the caller information is stored and listed under your phone number for THREE YEARS! So you can use this for a while and then let the authorities know and their will be a lot of call records for them to use.

3) When you use *57 you are charged $1.00 each time. Yes, this sucks, but it turns out that if you call 800-582-0655 (Qwest annoyance call office) and tell them you used *57 they will issue a credit. I asked them if they will issue a credit WHY we get charged in the first place? Of course, there is no answer other than "That's the way it is!".

4) I would also keep a notebook and document each call like this that you get. Write down the time, date, and anything else you can about the call. You can use this when you report them.

SEO Services Company Needs Telemarketing Crutch

I was just called by an automated dialing system from a California company called Reliable Listing Services. They claim to offer SEO services for Google ranking in search engine results. The number that called me was 401-584-4164.

They play a short recording that mentions something about Google and it gave me the IMPRESSION that the call was coming from Google. They don't mention THEIR company and I think this is VERY deceptive. Once you hear the name Google and there is nothing that clarifies what the call is about, so naturally you stay on the line to learn what it is.

What they do is call companies if you have a listing in Google and offer to sell you a monthly service for $199 which is a "discount" from their normal price of $299.

When I asked the rep if they use what they are offering me, he told me they DON'T USE THEIR OWN SERVICE!! So if they don't use their system to market their own business, why would anyone else want to use it? If they have to use telemarketing, what does that say about the quality of what they offer?

Then, when I informed him that I am on the federal and state DO-NOT-CALL lists, he said he didn't WANT my business and hung up. He did NOT say he would remove our number from their system.

I am an Internet consultant with over 10 years experience. From what I can tell this is just another one of the rude, unprofessional,and over-priced SEO companies that gives our industry such a BAD REPUTATION. Please don't use any SEO or marketing company call calls you or sends you unsolicited spam emails. The professional companies don't need to do this, only those that want to take your money in return for very questionable services...!

Gasta Europen Search Engine Up For Sale

UK-Based Gasta Search Engine Network Enters Into Sales / Merger Talks

The Gasta search network is a blended search that will deliver web results, news, videos, and images with one single keyword search, then lets users social bookmark search results in their own library. The Gasta search network extends its reach into Europe and USA, has search engines launched in South Africa, China, and Japan. Gasta is a European trademark and the Gasta search engine was last year's winner of the PWC award for innovation, it also holds one of the UK most valuable property domain holdings.

Belfast, Ireland (PRWEB) October 14, 2008 -- It was announced here today that the Belfast-based web 2.0 Search Engine Network Gasta is in talks with several companies for a possible sale or merger. A well established player in European, US, and Asian search, The Gasta.com search engine network currently consists of 450+ Domains, is translated into six languages, offers a contextualised ad system, powerful SEO options, keyword management tools, and full service administration to create, launch, and quickly deploy new search engines in emerging markets and geographical regions as needed.

Gasta has created a very easy to use back-end admin system that is designed for non technical use, within the admin you can add new keywords, manage ad campaigns, replicate advertising codes, and launch new search index's and directories in minutes, Gasta has developed its own text based contextualised ad system, InstantAdsTM and the keyword direct hit service SearchMatchTM allowing users to buy targeted keywords for the geographic region they do business in. As well as this there are many SEO options including InstantLinksTM the free link exchange system that publishes the main directory." We can launch new search engines in emerging regions very easily, with the rapid deployment platform we have developed" said Higgins. "We can launch in Poland and Malaysia very quickly and have been looking out for possible local partners on the ground in these regions".

While Gasta.com is well-established in the Search Industry, it has chosen to maintain a low profile and provided state of the art services to its visitors and advertisers. Christian Nielsen, owner of NielsenTech.com, an Internet consulting firm located in the US said he has used Gasta for many years. "Yes, I was submitting client sites to Gasta's system back as early as 1999 when we started doing SEO and web promotion. They have evolved over the years, and we have keep in contact due to their attitude of service and ethics. Most other firms in the US don't seem to know about them and that's been a competitive edge for us."

Gasta.com owner Francis Higgins believes that now is a 'good time' to transition the search engines network due to the convergence of web 2.0 technologies. Higgins said "We believe that we have created great distribution platform to easily explore and rapidly develop new and emerging regions. We have looked into the possibility of partnering with a mobile carrier to deliver local mobile search in which great opportunities are coming in the future, Gasta works well now on mobiles but we would need the expertise of the big carriers to make an impact and monetize the service.

We have worked hard over the past 12 years to improve the reach and the depth of the Gasta network. With the rapid deployment and white label solution we have developed we can quickly launch blended search engines that will bring up web results, videos, news, and images with one keyword. Our brand commands a high level of respect by those that are familiar with us and those that do some research will see our extensive digital footprint built up over the years that shows our quality and consistency and has established our brand's value in the search marketing industry."

More Companies Eyeing European Search Market For Takeover Targets

More Companies Eyeing European Search Market For Takeover Targets

I am unable to confirm the information I have just received, but rumor has named two of the companies interested in the European Search Engine Network that I have posted about before. The first is Infosys.com whose name many not mean much to many in the US, but they are a huge player located in 23 countries and based in India. An IT services company, this deal could vault them into the search industry and they have extensive technology resources to pull it off and pull it off well. I have to admit I don't know much about the Indian search industry, but Infosys would become a major player overnight given the assets of the company they are thinking about buying.

The other name mentioned is also not one I have heard of, mobile and ISP Orange. This also makes perfect sense to me, since any mobile and Internet provider would be nuts to pass up on a deal like this. Orange is based in France so I'm sure that is the first place they would expand the Search Network to. It will be interesting to see what other players come to the table. I'm surprised no US companies have shown interest, but it may be just that word has not leaked out yet...

About Infosys
Infosys Technologies Limited (BSE: 500209, NASDAQ: INFY) is an information technology services company headquartered in Bengaluru, India. Infosys is one of India's largest Information Technology companies with over 94,379 professionals. Infosys has nine development centers in India and over 30 offices worldwide. Infosys's annual revenues for the fiscal year 2007-2008 exceeded US$4 billion with a market capitalization of over US$30 billion.

About Orange
Orange UK is a mobile telecommunications network operator and internet service provider in the United Kingdom which is owned by France Telecom. Orange was founded in 1994 by Hutchison Telecom which was later bought by Mannesmann AG and then in May 2000 sold to France Télécom. Orange UK has over 17 million customers who subscribe to its mobile and broadband services. http://www.infosys.com/

Easy Access To European Search: Make Your Competitors Pay You

I guess it's small by some standards, but there seems to be increasing interest in the European Search Engine Network we have posted about before that is well established in several countries over the past 12 years. With over 3.5 million unique visitors a month it's not small, but it should be clear to almost anyone that there is substantial room for growth.

We've been asked to not disclose the name of the company or the main search engine at this time, but when I get the ok I will post again. I think this will be pretty big news when the full story comes out.

Short list of potential buyers:
AOL
Yandex
Rediff
Ask
Baidu
Cuil
Rambler
Amazon
Wikia
Alccoona

There are others but I am less certain about them.

There is talk about some companies with no connection to search currently jumping in with an acquisition such as this. It only makes sense, since the cost to run a large advertising campaign can be considerable and what better way to save money on advertising then to buy all of the search and eyeballs you need for one set price? Then you can charge your COMPETITORS to run their ads on your network of search sites.

Once you do that, you no longer "lose" any business to your competition, since they pay you if they get the customer...!!!

Sale Of Search Engine Network Generates Traffic

We've been getting a lot of emails looking for more information about the European Search Engine Network that I posted about the other day. To eliminate some of the questions, I am posting some more information about this 12 year old network of sites that is built upon their search technology. The more I learn about what they have, the more potential I see for someone with additional skills, capital, and other resources to tie into what they already have and expand on or into the European market.

Here is some more information:

- Monthly traffic of 3,000,000+ per month across the network.

- 3,500 current /past advertisers

- Registered as a European distribution partner for Microsoft Adwords.

- A partner with Google Doubleclick and Adsense.

- Has the ability to deploy new local search engines quickly.

- Currently targeting markets in Europe, US, and several other countries as well as several topics, such as travel.

- Owns at least 4 trademarks

- Currently has 450+ Domains launched on their servers.

Domains:
· International
· US
· UK
· Ireland
· Europe
· Austria
· France
· Germany
· Italy
· Spain
· India
· China
· Japan
· South Africa
· Money
· Travel
· and several others

If you are interested or require more information please let me know and I will put you in touch with the company. I've been friends with the owner for some time now and agreed to help them find a buyer if I can.

I would have thought the current economic situation would have made it difficult to generate interest in a search network such as this, but I was clearly wrong. There are many that would like to expand their current holdings and sites like social networks, consumer shopping sites, auction sites, and sites that are based on UGC (User Generated Content) seem to be super interested in adding mature search to the current offerings. Building is always an option, but why build and re-invent the wheel when you can buy.

And I just learned today that one of my old favorite UK search engines, www.Burf.com was sold and now has a new owner.
If you need to reach me, just Google "NielsenTech" and you should be able to contact me.

Hosted Exchange to Email Service

Backup and Restore Center

AmeriVault Adds Hosted Exchange to Email Service Portfolio

AmeriVault has added Hosted Exchange to its portfolio of Email Services, which include Email Archiving, Email Continuity, and now Hosted Exchange. The data protection leader is also offering discounts for bundled services (including Online Backup, Disaster Recovery, Email Archiving, Email Continuity, and Hosted Exchange).

Waltham, MA, September 24, 2008 -- AmeriVault (www.amerivault.com) - a recognized leader in data protection managed services, including remote online data backup, offsite recovery services, email archiving, and data lifecycle solutions - today announced the addition of Hosted Microsoft Exchange to its portfolio of email services.

As the most critical application for most companies, email services can be incredibly difficult and time-consuming for SMBs to manage in-house. Since the average employee is 25% less productive when email is not available, many companies are moving to a Hosted Exchange solution to ensure employee productivity and uptime.

Offering a lower total cost of ownership than in-house solutions, AmeriVault's Hosted Exchange services feature a "per mailbox" payment structure - and discounts are available for customers that bundle Hosted Exchange service with AmeriVault's other services (online backup, high availability, disaster recovery, email archiving, or email continuity).

Aside from the savings, bundling Email Services in particular offers SMBs added value when it comes to uptime, regulatory compliance, and e-discovery. Bundling Hosted Exchange with Email Archiving ensures a secure and robust email environment typically only enjoyed by the largest enterprises. Email Archiving ensures regulatory compliance and speeds e-discovery while reducing reliance on the inbox - reducing email storage requirements.

AmeriVault's Hosted Exchange services are also ideal for businesses looking to avoid a lengthy implementation process, companies with limited IT resources, or smaller businesses that cannot justify implementing an in-house solution because of employee count.

For businesses that are seeking more than just simple email functionality, AmeriVault's Hosted Exchange services offer centralized calendars and collaboration tools, robust web-based functionality for traveling employees, and seamless integration with mobile devices such as BlackBerry. Since Hosted Exchange services centralize email functions, users can have access to email, calendars, and collaborative tools regardless of their location.

As a data protection leader, AmeriVault ensures stringent security and data protection measures are in place for its Hosted Exchange services. Powerful anti-virus and anti-spam filtering on all incoming and outgoing email ensures a clean inbox. In addition, world-class Tier IV datacenters use the latest military-grade security and redundancy technologies to ensure data protection.

Automatic backups - including Exchange settings, documents, calendars, and emails - provide an extra level of data protection for customers. In addition, since AmeriVault's Hosted Exchange service includes backup of email data, clients ultimately enjoy reduced backup costs.

Please visit AmeriVault's Website for more information about its Hosted Exchange services: http://www.amerivault.com/email_archiving/hosted_exchange.html

To learn more about how AmeriVault can help ensure expedient recovery, reduce costs, automate processes, and improve security; please call 1-800-774-0235 or visit www.amerivault.com.

About AmeriVault
Founded in 1998 and a subsidiary of PHNS, AmeriVault is a recognized leader in managed data protection and offsite storage services, including online backup, disk-based recovery, high availability, email archiving, and data lifecycle solutions. Backed by a SAS 70 (Type II) certification, AmeriVault's solutions employ aggressive security and redundancy safeguards while ensuring business continuity, seamless disaster recovery, and regulatory compliance.

Whether data requires continuous data protection or data archiving, AmeriVault's solutions are tailored according to data value, lifecycle, regulated attributes, and recovery objectives, as well as desired redundancies and price points.

AmeriVault combines the highest levels of customer service, premium solutions, award-winning software, and secure world-class datacenters to deliver Excellence in Data Protection.®

Internet Radio Offers Local Independent Music

RCA's new Internet Radio

Local Independent Music Finds Home on Internet Radio

Internet Broadcasting Group and Affordable Sound Join Forces to Form Affordable Sound Radio Online.

Austin, TX, September 13, 2008 -- Local musicians unable to get airplay on Austin's commercially owned radio stations will find respite in Affordable Sound Radio Online, launching September 1, 2008. The radio station which will be available online at AffordableSound.FM, will specialize in playing artists that aren't heard on any other station.

While commercial radio is losing revenue and listenership every quarter, internet radio is growing at exponential rates. Internet Broadcasting Group and Affordable Sound will work together to create a station that is "thoroughly listenable, engaging and entertaining," said Affordable Sound co-owner Mike Marquardt. Affordable Sounds specializes in high volume CD duplication, artist posters and collateral and music distribution. The company which has traditionally provided artists with exposure through compilation CD's and events, sees internet radio as a new and highly viable venue to promote local artists.

"People continue to seek a place to hear new artists. Not just what record companies want them to hear, but independent artists who are talented, progressive and interesting," commented Internet Broadcasting Group vice-president Mark Lassoff.

The AffordableSound.FM Station will feature traditional music programming with fewer commercials and promotions than are found in commercial FM stations. Since the cost structure of operating a radio station on the internet is hundreds of thousands of dollars lower than operating a terrestrial station, there is less need to sell commercial advertising time.

Musicians who want their music to have exposure on the station will be able to submit their songs to Affordable Sound through their web site. Also, clients who utilize Affordable Sound for their traditional CD Duplication services will have their music included in the radio station's rotation.

Affordable sound co-owners, Mike Marquardt and Will Evans will also host a weekly "Top 10" style show which will be broadcast throughout the week as well as made available as on-demand programming. The Top 10 program will be available through the AffordableSound.FM web site as well as Apple iTunesT.

"It's rough for independent artists," said Marquardt, "Hopefully this station will make it just a little bit easier for them to get them heard. I think people will really enjoy listening too."

Search Engine for Musical Instruments

WorldWideWeb showing many of it's functions
JamLoop.com Launches World's First Musical Instrument Search Engine

Proprietary technology aggregates new and used listings for musicians

Pleasant Hill, CA - March 11 -- JamLoop (http://www.JamLoop.com) announced today the beta launch of its search engine for finding new and used musical instruments and equipment. On a daily basis, the search service aggregates over 250,000 musical gear listings from across the web and makes them available to musicians through a simple keyword search box, resulting in an easier and more comprehensive search experience for users.

"JamLoop offers musicians a new way to shop for musical gear online," says JamLoop Director of Marketing, Liz Kuykendall. "Historically, there are lots of places that musicians look to find that unique Les Paul used guitar, that Fender Twin Reverb amplifier, a matched pair of Shure microphones, etc.: From newspaper classifieds to eBay, Craigslist and retail websites like Musician's Friend, there are so many relevant options but they all take time. JamLoop replaces a highly-fragmented, clunky search experience with a much more efficient and intuitive one. We give users a single destination to find most of what's available on the market today."

JamLoop's proprietary content indexing and fuzzy search technology simplifies the search process for users by adding classification structure to used gear listings and finding matches even for misspelled text. It also layers geo-coding and mapping information onto listings so that users can search for items locally.

"The secondary market for used musical instruments is extremely vibrant and JamLoop does a fantastic job of bringing together all of those vintage pieces into a single search experience; it's a huge time saver," said Chris Rigatuso, avid guitar collector and CEO of Skyfollow, a media production company. "What I really like though is the way that JamLoop lets me compare used and new equipment simultaneously using price and location filters. I'm often indifferent as to whether an item is used or new, I'm just looking for the best deal.
