如果你参观博物馆和观察,每个游客通过同一扇门,沿着相同的走廊,他们都会看到完全相同的文字的东西,但也会看到不同的东西基于他们独特的视角。
今天,我想让你对域名有不同的看法。从不同的角度比你通常做的。
您购买域名是因为您喜欢域名还是购买域名是因为您知道其他人需要它们?也许你需要像最终用户买家一样思考, 而不是作为域名?
你认为作为一个营销机构可能会认为吗?也许可以考虑营销机构做的事情。寻找他们展示的模式(他们都喜欢炫耀他们的工作,所以看看)它可能会激发一个想法。
总的来说,我希望你看看你做事的方式,从不同的角度看待每一件事情。
例如:
我正在查看过期域名列表。我们中的许多人这样做,我们可能几乎都看相同的数据。它很容易进入一个例行公事,并使用有帮助的工具使用。如果你真的考虑过头了,很少有工具显示任何过期域名的数据。我们都走在博物馆的同一个走廊上。我们都看到了相同的域名,只是人们用不同的观点看待它们。
我喜欢这个,我喜欢那个。你背后的人可能喜欢完全相同的域名,或者可能不喜欢你这样做的域名。由于域都是独一无二的,好的领域会根据某些指标发光,但黄金不会发光而不抛光。有些将隐藏和闪耀不同的数据。
我心想,”每个人都在看和我一样的数据。这就是为什么所有的拍卖有这么多的投标人,我不断出价出我的美元商店预算!大多数人使用非常相同的数据来查找要出价的域,这就是问题所在。是的,我的预算太差了,没用。但有时你只需要找到其他方法。
它可以是令人沮丧的,直到你从不同的角度看待它。
我开始寻找不同的数据。这并不容易,我没有发现数据集过夜。我认为某些数据在发现过程中会比其他数据产生更好的结果,我最终发现,两个不同的数据集一旦合并,就会产生一组完全不同的域名。这是疯狂的, 真的, 但两个饲料都很重要。
由于数据与大多数人查看的数据不同,令我吃惊的是,其中许多域名没有收到任何出价。如果我想的话, 我大部分时间都能赢得大部分的名字。
我不是说本垒打, 漂亮的双打, 三分球, 还有几个在公园里的本垒打。
我手动处理了整个数据收集过程一个月。这是非常耗时的,因为我使用网络刮擦来测试过程/想法,所有这些对我来说都是新的,所以这个过程本身就有一个高学习曲线。我可能会使用 API 访问和代码自动化来改进数据收集,但其中的一部分已经超过我的脑海,开发成本很容易开始变得相当高,所以我有点保留我应该做些什么来帮助减少耗时的过程。然后,我被处理了一点问题。
我获得的关键数据集之一,将两个数据集组合在一起,最终被我使用的 Web 刮擦服务阻止 IP。如果没有额外的数据集与我使用的其他数据集相结合, 它们基本上都是无用的, 没有对方。网络刮擦服务说,他们无能为力的IP地址被阻止。我尝试了大约一个星期,以类似的东西取代数据源,但我只是无法找到一个类似的来源,我能够获得相同的过程。
在这一点上,我踩刹车的项目,因为它是非常耗时的测试和工作主要是在手动的基础上,当时我找不到一个替代数据源的被阻止。我可能会通过直接与数据源合作来获得被阻止获取的数据,但丢失数据无疑使项目变得脆弱。
最后,我了解到,从不同的角度看待事物可能会产生截然不同的结果。这并不容易,但这是别人没有做到的方法。我使用不同的数据,只是尝试不同的东西。我尝试了很多不同的数据,只是碰巧注意到两个比其他一切效果更好。不以不同的方式看待它, 我可能永远不会尝试它。
我最终没有找到一个万能的解决方案,但我知道我可以通过以不同的观点来看待和行动,创造出与大多数人所使用的不同的东西,并带来有希望的结果。

Look at Domain Names with a Different Perspective

If you visit a museum and observe, every visitor goes through the same door, down the same hallways, and they will all see the exact same literal things, but will also see things differently based upon their unique perspectives.
Today, I wanted to make you think differently about domain names. From a different perspective than you normally do.
Do you buy domain names because you like them or do you buy domain names because you know others will need them? Maybe you need to think like an end-user buyer and not as a domainer?
Do you think as a marketing agency might think? Maybe consider things that marketing agencies do. Look for patterns they display (they all like to show off their work, so take a look) It may spark an idea.
In general, I want you to look at the way you do things and look at each one from a different perspective.
An example:
I was looking at a list of expired domain names. Plenty of us do it and we likely almost all look at the same data. It’s easy to get in a routine and use tools that are helpful to use. If you really think about it, there are very few tools that show any data with expired domain names. We are all walking down the same hallway at the museum. We are all seeing the same domains, just people looking at them with different perspectives.
I like this one, I like that one. The person behind you may like the exact same domains or maybe not one that you do. Since domains are all unique, the good ones will shine based on certain metrics, but gold doesn’t shine without being polished. Some will be hidden and shine with different data.
I thought to myself, “Everyone’s looking at the very same data I am. It’s why all the auctions have so many bidders and I’m constantly bid out of my dollar-store budget!” The majority are using the very same data to find what domains to bid on, that’s the problem. Yes, my budget sucks, which isn’t helpful. But sometimes you just have to find other ways.
It can be frustrating until you look at it from a different perspective.
I set out to find different data. It wasn’t easy and I didn’t discover the data sets overnight. I thought certain data would yield better results than others during the discovery process, and I ended up finding that two different data sets, once combined, produced a totally different set of domain names. It was crazy, really, but both feeds were important.
Since the data was different than the data most folks were looking at, to my surprise, many of these domains were getting no bids. I could win most of the names if I wanted, the majority of the time.
I’m not talking home run balls, nice doubles, triples, and a few with an in-park home run.
I played around with the whole data collection process manually for a month. It was extremely time-consuming because I was using web scraping to test the process/idea, all of which was new to me, so that process alone had a high learning curve. I could likely improve the data collection using API access and code automation but that part of it was getting over my head and development costs can easily start getting pretty high, so I was a bit reserved with what I should do to help reduce the time-consuming process. Then I was dealt a bit of a problem.
One of my key data sets I was obtaining that combined two data sets together ended up getting IP blocked with the web scraping service I was using. Without that extra data set to combine with the other I had used, they were essentially both useless without each other. The web scraping service said there wasn’t anything they could do about the IP address being blocked. I tried for about a week to replace the data feed with something similar but I just wasn’t able to find a similar source that I was able to obtain with the same process.
At that point, I put the brakes on the project because it was wildly time-consuming to test and make work mainly on a manual basis, and at the time I wasn’t able to find a replacement data source for the one that got blocked. I could likely get the data that I was blocked from getting by working directly with the data source but losing it certainly made the project fragile.
In the end, I learned that looking at things from a different perspective could yield wildly different results. It wasn’t easy but it was an approach that others are not doing. I was using different data and just trying different things. I tried a lot of different data and just happened to notice two that worked better than everything else. Without looking at it differently, I likely never would have even tried it.
I didn’t end up with a fix-all solution, but I do know that I can create something different than what the majority are using with a promising result by looking and acting with a different perspective.
