Many bloggers are reporting that Network Solutions, the third largest domain registrar in the world is up to some shady tactics.

“I am confirming that Network Solutions steals domain ideas when people check domain availability on the Network Solutions website. They seem to have started the practice of stealing domain ideas on December 16th 2007 according to our Domain History database but I was just made aware of this practice today. I am appalled at the concept of taking people’s domain ideas and registering it before the consumer has the ability to manual register the domain. (click here for more details)“

Godaddy.com is number one, Enom.com is number two and both sell at significantly less than Network Solutions. (Ubertor is an affiliate of Godaddy.com)

Seth points us to a blog that discusses domain names as well as their presentation. Here is what Seth said:

Here’s a neat blog about good urls and bad ones. Mostly, though, it’s about how you present your URL in your ads.

Tip one: DON’TUSEALLCAPSMUSHEDTOGETHER.COM.

Tip two: we’ve probably reached the state where you don’t need the www. in order to communicate that it’s a URL.

Tip three, and the hardest of all: just because it’s the best URL you could get, or just because you and your team ‘get it’ doesn’t mean it’s going to work.
