The majority of SEO experts don't dog domains. I strongly support SEO involvement for domain owners building out their domains... SEMPDX.org is an excellent place to start.

Thank you, I'm sure a lot of readers appreciate that. I couldn't get that pdf up on any search I made on IPv6. Maybe I should have gone to ICANN first, but I can make this statement from the factsheet they provided: It says NOTHING about the status of all our domains bought within every available TLD and CCTLD. It says absolutely nothing about how IPv6 will affect our current domain names we own. That's kind of scary, don't you think? Or not? Smiley face? You can find out more on IPv6 at ICANN:

They were saying that google.com itself is the most visited page on the internet, not that ipv6.google.com is the most visited page on google. ipv6.google.com isnt even 2 months old.

ipv6.google.com isnt even 2 months old.

Expressed in decimal notation (which it usually isn't) an IPv6 address would look like 4 IPv4 addresses typed end-to-end. Why? Because we are running out of IP addresses. More devices and more people on the the Net means a greater need for IP addresses. Just like cell phones and faxes have driven the need for new area codes. NAT and other technical advances have put off the day we run out, but it's still coming. To nit pick, IP addresses do not "make up domain names." Domain names (people friendly) are translated into IP addresses (computer friendly) via DNS. Under IPv6 There will still be a system of Domain Name Servers doing this translation. There will just be a vastly larger number of IP addresses to go around. Bottom line? I don't see any direct impact on domainers one way or the other. But hey, I could be missing something. ++++STEPHEN DOUGLAS SEZ+++++ Hi Scott, Excellent update on my post... thanks for the technical details.
