Thursday, June 12th, 2008Title High Performance Web Sites
Author Steve Sounders
ISBN-10 0-596-52930-9 (ISBN-13 978-0-596-52930-7)

High Performance Web Sites by Steve Saunders is an attempt at teaching people how to best go about optimizing their web sites.

Is Domain Tasting Wrong
Sunday, August 26th, 2007I have decided to cover domain tasting as my first post. It is a subject I feel very strongly about and would like to tell you why.
So what is domain tasting. Domain tasting is the practice of registering domain names and parking them, if they do not achieve $x amount of revenue within the first 5 days the domain is dropped and returned to the registry.

If the domain does not make this money then the domain tasterswill drop the domain name and return it to the registry. The domain tasters either have an agreement with the registrar to ensure that they do not incur any fees or they use a registrar that will allow you to drop a domain without any questions (a registrar is not charged for a domain that has been dropped within the first 5 days).
