Bye Bye Domaining.com

Got an email earlier from Francois of Domaining.com:

Hello,

Just a quick note to tell you we’ll no longer will include headlines of bloggers promoting other RSS feed agregators in their pages.
As normal we cannot be promoting competitors… plus most are old members who simply copy cated our site.
Plus we think our industry will benefit of a strong central feed agregator site most than have traffic diluted in many, united we are stronger.
We checked your site and it’s your case, so if this change further please drop us a note to update your account.

Best Regards,

Francois Carrillo

I did not plan to post for a while on the blog as I’m on a blog break. I wouldn’t really mine if my blog was dropped due to inactivity, but due to anti competitiveness? I feel this is just plain wrong.

I believe Francois & Domaining.com have done much to further the domain industry. With that said, I can no longer align myself with such a venue, and such beliefs. I believe the best should win, not because of blocking competitors, but because of best service.

To those who wonder who that other service is (domain aggregator), I believe he is refering to NameBee.

As I’m on a blog break comments here are blocked. You may comment on this post on my Twitter page.
