More Than 100,000 .ie Domain Names
It was announced that Kilmainham hospital was 100,000th .ie domain name. I find figures like this put link building, online marketing, and designing websites in perceptive.
I was having a discussion with a colleague during the week about a long term site that we are working on which will need about 7,000 links. We know it will take a few years, it is not at the top of our priority we are working through it in spare time. However he was commenting that we must run out of places to have our link placed at some point. And of course I disagreed.
I believe that we will run out of places to get links from when we think like that, when we think that the competition is too much for us. As long as we keep doing what we do every day it will all be good. I also think this is another good reason to be working in teams; link building is hard and sometimes people need a pep talk to see the bigger picture and start to use their imagination again.
Just think - I said to him - in Ireland alone their are more than 100,000 .ie domain names. Pushing people to wrap their heads around the huge numbers can sometimes be challenging, but I carried on - how many .com or .co.uk domain there are?
The biggest problem with web workers is doing the work, this is well known in the industry. Just sitting down day after day and staying focused can be tough - but in reality we have it a dam site easier than most of the world.
