THE CHEF COOKS UP ANOTHER TASTY DOMAIN DINNER

GODROPS.COM RE-LAUNCHING ITS SITE

April 23, 2010 – It was announced several months ago the site GoDrops.com was going to get an overhaul. The construction work is complete and GoDrops.com is ready for its re-release. A partnership formed between Jason Cupp of GoDrops.com and Patrick Ruddell of ChefPatrick.com has come together to create a new and improved version of the site.

In 1998, frustrated with his inability to land any generic .com’s, Jason created a script that helped him track names that were dropping, giving him a list to choose from. At some point he decided to publish this list, which is where the idea for GoDrops.com came from. He successfully ran the site since, but in late 2009 realized it needed help monetizing and marketing. This is when he partnered up with Chef Patrick who has shared some of his creative ideas and input, redeveloping what is the all new GoDrops.com.

Patrick offered a little insight saying, “Jason created something really solid with GoDrops. This is a great service that domainers can use to get an edge, giving them an opportunity to snag some great names that might not have been available to them otherwise.”

One of the major changes with the re-release is a membership program. It costs $19.97 per month to join giving its members daily access to the hand selected pending delete domain names list. In addition, paid members have access to domain stats, such as value, age, CPC, searches and frequency. Paying members will have access to drop data 24 hours in advance and 5 days in arrears. Previously members had to come to the site between 2-3pm EST only in order to have access to any drop lists during the live chat session. There will also be a members only forum available for questions, comments and conversations.

With the re-launch came more extensions. There will be nine extensions available to start – .com, .net, .org, .us, .info, .biz, .me, .tv and .ca. More extensions will be added monthly.

A great feature that remains is the live chat session. This is the only site offering this feature in conjunction with the release of the drop list live. It adds a fun social aspect to the service.

There is still a free service available for non-paying members. Those individuals will continue to have access to only the .com and .net lists without the extra benefits the paid members get and only as the drop is happening. The live drop and chat session runs from 2pm EST to 3pm EST.

The GoDrops team would like to send out a BIG thank you to Name.com for providing all the raw drop data and discounts for GoDrops members and also Estibot.com for providing the statistical data.

    “I’m shocked you wrote about this crap Stephen.”

    XXXXXX Stephen Douglas Responds:

    There was more to this post, but like I always have championed: IDENTIFY YOURSELF, especially when you’re going to take a potshot at someone. You could be totally right in your opinion, but if you don’t identify yourself, you paint yourself as a chickenshit. Ever seen chickenshit? I do, when I read anonymous posts like yours.

    You can’t do it on my blog, but I posted a little taste of your chickenshit comments where you didn’t post your real name and your email or website. I’m using one sentence of your post to prove a point to all other bloggers, especially domainers in accepting comments from anonymous doggers:

    It’s easy to write crap about others and hide behind an anonymous post, but it means nothing because my readers don’t know if your message is worth reading. Why? You could just be a jealous competitor, or a major asswipe loser. Who knows? The first clue for all of us to consider is that you’re first and foremost, a chickenshit too afraid to post who you are when you put someone else down publicly. Period. There’s no argument around this.

    So, you got your little “stick” in… but that’s just what it is for you in the phallic sense — you’re a “little stick”. When you get a bigger “stick”, come on back and let us know who you are, and how strong you are to stand up for your statements publicly.

    F*cking p*ssy

    ” You could be totally right in your opinion, but if you don’t identify yourself, you paint yourself as a chickenshit. ”

    Exactly but as you know chicken shit can be a great fertilizer. Look where we are now, an honest discussion instead of having to read in 1998 it was hard to come by a generic…could the Stephen Douglas I know write that with a straight face? Lead by example and admit that statement was pure hilarity. Unless your chicken shit?

    XXXXXX Stephen Douglas Responds:

    Ahhh, my scaredy-cat “friend” in Canada, surely you don’t believe that I have ever held back in making a statement that I believed in and identified myself. Is your argument that if I don’t “admit” my statement about you and your posting crap about someone else while hiding behind an anonymous name was “pure hilarity”, then I’m a chicken shit? That’s your logical argument? Please post again about this after you’ve read “Philosophy 101″ – a standard freshman textbook for college Philosophy classes.

    Of course, it won’t be printed here until you grow the balls to identify yourself.

    I admit, I have not read that text however I did watch Back to the Future and I am no McFly.
