Enom just announced a new service for domain names called the “Business Listing Service” for $20 per year, per domain.

According to their announcement:

“”"”Enom.com says Business Listing service is an incredibly easy and cost-effective way for you to increase your online visibility and boost website traffic

    I really dont see many people signing up for this service - $20 is cheap so that might win them some business and then I suppose there are the small guys who are just setting up and buy a domain and think this will get me thousands of hits but lets be truthful here how many people use - whoisbusinesslistings.com - According to there metatag - “Get found. Promote your web sites to 1.6 million daily searchers. Add contact information, maps, domains for sale, blogs, and more!”

    I submited that without finnishing but what I was going to say 1.6million people use it everyday?

    I have never heard of it?

    If they had a partnership deal with yellowpages or something I would say this sounds good but a new service Im unsure but I am happy to be proven wrong lets see how it goes and get an update from them in a few months.

    I think NetSol offers the same/similar “service.”

    Worthless; or virtually so.

    Regardless; given enom’s recent failure to stand up for the legal and moral rights of our industry via its immediate acquiescence to the demands of the Kentucky governor by turning over control of owners’ domains, none of us should have any of our domains with them…or be using any of their products or services.

    Great money making concept for enom that is.

    I agree 100% with Steve M’s post -
