Yahoo Small Business is currently selling domain names for only $1.99 right now. I’m not sure how long this is going to last, and it is also for new customers only! Of course the way around that is you could create a new account if you needed to. The $1.99 price counts for only the first year, and it’s $12.95/year after that. I’m using this as an opportunity to purchase any domain names that I want to test out, and if they don’t work out for me i’ll just bag them after the first year!

The way I located this discount was by first doing a Google search for ‘Yahoo Domains’. Then you click on the PPC ad on the top of the listing, not the organic listing. The PPC listing redirects you to a special landing page where you can get the $1.99 discount! As i’m writing this i’m realizing that this only will work for your first domain name! But anyhow, it will save you some cash for a .com and you can get a domain name for something you want to try out. In my case, i’m creating a new affiliate website that I wanted to test out the market on first. So if it doesn’t work out for me, i’ll just bag it when my 1 year is up.

Hitwise has released it’s search engine numbers for the month of March 2007. In these numbers you will find a 10% increase for Google over the other 3 major search engines. You can find out more about the article at Hitwise: Search Engine Stats. Here is a basic rundown of those numbers.

  • Google = 64.13%
  • Yahoo = 21.26%
  • MSN Live = 9.15%
  • Ask = 3.48%

This information is helpful for a couple of reasons. For one, it shows Google’s true dominance over the search engine market and why for organic search engine optimization it’s so important to put Google on the top of your list of priorities. It does however also show that you don’t necessarily need to fully depend on Google only for your traffic. Nick Stamoulis wrote about how if traffic can be sustained by 2 out of the 3 other search engines that you can be well off as well.
