Ok, now we are talking! This is finally how directories can proceed to upsell a .tel Great news. |
Quote:
That would be difficult, because Telnames doesn't allow building directories. There are already several discussions at TelTalk.org relating to this topic.[/size] |
...and the Telnames opportunities just keep coming - after the Affiliate Program announcment here's the detail of how to become a Telnames VAR (Value Added Reseller) - http://www.telnames.com/partners/resellers Could this be just in time to save the value of .tels on the aftermarket ? Mike Seaton |

This program is the same discussed on TelTalk.org in the beginning of July.[/size] |

I mean the prepaid "out of the box" .tel is what the directory owner pushes to the local small businesses already listed in the free directory. Substitute link after small business takes over their own listing[/size] |
I really have a very good vibe about the Telnames .tels - although I would still like a Google AdSense ad above and below the content ! It's what the original .tel philosophy was - just a shame it took 3.5 years to get there ! Still that's water under the bridge now - let's concentrate on making the http://YourBusiness.tel template style the recognisable face of .tel worldwide. The obvious "elephant in the room" is that the Telnic registrars are still selling the old subdomain-style .tels - there needs to be a mechanism put in place to allow them to offer the Telnames format asap !

Have just applied to the Telnames Affiliate Program. The only downside to the application process is being able to just specify 1 URL - I submitted http://Domains123.tel but would liked to have been able to submit http://UK.BoatSearchEngine.com as well - it's visitors are just the sort of buyer that Telnames are targeting. But with only 1 site able to be listed I thought I'd better go for my domain sales site. Mike Seaton[/size] |

Sorry guys I've been away for awhile and coming back to catch up on the .tel scene. I'm bit confused about what telnames.com is. I like the new .tel templates I see at http://yourbusiness.tel/, with the nice image as background and the icons. But am I reading that only telnames.com can do this? I don't get it since I thought all templates were available through the .tel DNS so whatever registrar we have with .tel should have the http://yourbusiness.tel/ template. |

You've got a lot of catching up to do ! Try searching for posts mentioning Telnames on this forum and also check out the numerous posts on this subject onhttp://www.TelTalk.org http://MikeSeaton.tel[/size] |
So from what I gather, Telnic owns Telnames.com and is now acting as a reseller to sell this unique template? But Telnic is not offering it to other registrars/resellers? If this is true, I am really dissappointed with Telnic and will abandon all my investments. |

Correct ! Many of us hope the situation will change and that Telnic registrars will be allowed to offer the Telnames http://YourBusiness.teltemplate, but your summary above describes how things currently are. Quote: [/size]
That's not a unique reaction - many others feel the same and have abandoned or reduced their investment in the .tel project ! FWIW I believe Telnames really are onto something with their single-page template (promo example http://Ben.tel) where you can upload directly from the Telnames Control Panel your choice of video, image gallery, background image and discount coupon. Besides the essential worldwide marketing (which Telnames appear to be starting now), the missing ingredient is to find a financially attractive mechanism for Telnic .tel owners either to transfer their domains to Telnames or to have the Telnames template at their current registrar. Sort this out and Telnames are onto a real winner, but as with everything on the internet "Time Is Of The Essence", particularly with 1000+ new gTLDs about to be launched which will soak up software developers time and domain investors money. The future of the .tel project is now in Telnames hands - let's hope they take the necessary action now ! Mike Seaton[/size] |
So what I don't understand is: 1) Why telnic is not offering the template to all registrars? I have 100 .tels registered through dynanot and now I can't use the nice template? Is telnic trying to take away business from other registrars for themselves? 2) Why can't one add subpages/subdomains with the new template? My biggest grip with .tel before was the mundane non appealing template. The new template has really built up my confidence but now it's not widely available for us. It's very frustrating to always be dealing with some kind of limitation with the .tel domain. |
Why not give http://Kash.tel, http://IanBM.tel or http://Justin.tel a ring and ask for answers to your questions ? Their phone numbers are on the above links, and all are "click-to-call" of course ! Mike Seaton |

Mike is it possible to add CJ ad code to tel domains? We have only two Adsense slots right now. I don't think Mark's Telmasters' tools will work in this case. Open to correction of course.[/size] |
If CJ uses a script, then NO. If they allow embedding of affiliate codes in the links and images, then YES. Mark |
