PPC Campaigns - Useful Tools For Promoting Expired Domains

By John Khu

Domain registrations have reached an all time high of about 75 millions during 2006 with an average of 1.5 millions new registrations.

Page Howe showed up at DNForum.com in early 2003 looking to rebound from a .com bust that had decimated his extensive Internet business ventures.
