Hello. My name is Andres Kello and I'm trying to break the world record for the most expensive domain by selling TheRecordBreakingDomain.com for $12,000,001. The problem is, I've been criticized for choosing such a "long" and "ugly" domain. I naturally disagree, but that criticism, together with one red paperclip, has given me yet another idea that's never been tried before. I'm going to show my critics that it's not about the domain; it's about the idea! So this time I'm going to start with an unquestionably ugly domain, oneuglydomain.net, and I'm going to trade it up for prettier and better domains until I end up with a beautiful domain worth $1 million. But here's the best part: I'm going to share 50% of the wealth with every single trader, ensuring the final trader gets $100,000 and every other trader gets 10% more than the previous trader, totaling $500,000!

OK, so this is how it's going to work. The offering period for each domain will last either 1 week or until I receive 11 offers to give everyone a chance to submit their offers. But here's the twist: YOU are going to decide which offer I accept. See, at the end of the 1-week offering period, I will be putting every single offer up for a 24-hour vote on the NamePros.com domain forum. The winner will trade their domain with mine and then I will rinse and repeat the whole process with my new domain. Sound simple enough? Cool, anyone can offer any domain they own, no matter how ugly, but you're limited to 1 offer per round, so always choose your best one. I will continue to do this until someone is willing to buy my current domain on offer for $1 million. Who the heck knows what domain that will be, but that's what makes this fun.

Back from Vacation, NQT.us wins again and is up for trade!

I'm back down under from my trip to Europe where I visited Spain and Croatia. I must be very jet-lagged because the counter on the left was reading: 351 days 12 h 27 m 10s. It must be neglect. In my defense, though, I've had to take a 27+ hour trip to get from Barcelona to Sydney, and I'm with an 8 hour time difference which means I'm falling asleep at random hours and waking up in the middle of the night not knowing where I am and calling out to mommy.

Anyway, it's time to put the DO back in oneuglydomain and get the party rolling once again. So let's pick the momentum back up now that vacation is over and let's get some juicy offers in. My NQT.us won the vote once again so it's up for trade!

Now I'm not in denial here. OUD has taken a dive since the precious 354.net. After all, an LLL.us is only worth $90 whereas an NNN.net is worth $1,000. But if we made it there once, we can do it again, and if we went from an $8 domain to a $1,000 domain, it is definitely within the realm of possibility that we can hit the $1 million jackpot, especially since we now have an experienced group of domainers from NamePros.com picking the winners each round.

Remember folks, OUD is what YOU, the traders, voters, and readers, make of it, so add some spice in to your lives and offer up a winner to take this puppy to the next level. I'm not going anywhere and I'm in no rush to hit the beautiful $1 million domain, I just know we can do it (otherwise I wouldn't be here). Don't forget that I'm sharing $500,000 with you traders and that all traders get their 15 minutes of fame (and PageRank) at the top of my blog, so it's not just about a 3-letter .us...trade for the glory!

OK, I apologize if I'm not making sense, but I'm still jet-lagged.

Anywho, be cool and send in your offers. You know you've always wanted a 3-letter .us, so don't deny it.

Off to bed (at 3pm),
Andres
