Just announced that Marc Ostrofsky, will appear tomorrow (June 9th) episode of ABC’s “The View” at 11A.M. EST to “discuss how everyday people, sometimes working from home, are making a good living often using popular social media tools”.
“Ostrofsky’s new book, Get Rich Click! The Ultimate Guide to Making Money on the Internet, is a comprehensive how-to guide for those interested in utilizing today’s new Internet tools to become financially independent.”
According to his Facebook page Marc was in the CNBC control room a few hours ago waiting to meet Suze Orman.
“”The New York Times best-seller, Get Rich Click!, features success stories from hundreds of small business owners who have used Ostrofsky’s guidelines to become successful. Get Rich Click! has received accolades from around the world including: #1 USA TODAY best-seller, #1 Wall Street Journal best-seller, #1 Barnes & Noble best-seller and #1 Amazon best-seller”
Marc is definitely rocking the mainstream media and its good publicity for domain name holders.
I’ll definitely be tuned in to watch Marc on The View… very cool. We interviewed him on mo.com awhile back, he’s always very interesting to listen to…
Wonder if Marc will delve into his history cybersquatting. Under his watch IREIT grew to be one of the most notorious, active and well orchestrated typo and cybersquatters the Internet has ever known. Note to Suze Orman who is great at math. If you meet mMarc and shake his hand be sure to count your fingers. Ostrovsky is a schemer and a fraud. The only way you will know he is lying is when his lips are moving.
Typo
I can tell you I’m a neighbor of Suze in Florida and I could never get her to show any interest in domain names so If Marc can do it more credit to him
Hi,
I have never watch the “View” in my life…and never thought I would 🙂
Good exposure, but the gals that are on the view and for most of their audience, “domains” are going go right over their heads…social media may work…
Looking forward to it, as it should be interesting if domains are discussed in an Intelligent manner…if they are brought up at all…other than “business.com”
Peace!

BTW: IMHO ~ In the end, it will be a “upsell” for his books and “CD’s” and whatever else he can get someone to buy…and will have zero impact on domain names or the domain name industry in the end. The only domain that may show some effect…is his “Facebook page URL”….but that really a domain name.
NONONO.CO
SOSOSO.CO

@Dan,
I never thought I would be watching the view in a million years either –
Registrars like this kind of exposure the most – because countless newb’s who saw the program have already began the process of maxing out their credit cards buying worthless domains – so they can sell one (or more) of those domains for $7.5 mils !!
Watched the show. Seems like his speil is designed to reel more nubies into the business. I especially like his sage advice about selling things that you don’t own. Just take a picture, sell it and then buy the product after the sale to fulfill the deal. Are you frickin kidding me? Thats about the cheesiest thing I’ve ever heard nevermind being a horrible lesson on how to make money online. Seems Mr. bigtime has become Mr. nickel n dime. Marc’s best before date passed a long long time ago. Unfortunate that the flag bearers of the domain industry are a bunch of lowlifes thiefs crooks and ego driven bigmouths.
@Billy Bob:
“Are you frickin kidding me? ”
exactly – people want to be sold a bill-of-goods – ask Ron Popeil and Ronco.
Maybe Ron Popeil should start a registrar – then Bob Parsons would have a hunting mate !!!
Hi,
@ BrianWick…
I missed the show…lol ~ glad I did.

what were you expecting billy bob? an ethical example for others to follow?
most online opportunities rely on a steady supply of noobs. if all parties had equal information many of these opportunities would vanish.
now think about someone selling “advice” on how to take part in them. if their effort to “educate” were 100% successful, it would kill most web opportunities. if everyone has the same information about the web, then there’s no one to take advatange of. the steady stream of noobs is essential, otherwise the pyramid collapses. the multi-level structure breaks down.
welcome to the online scam economy.
selling a “how to” book relating to the web marketing is probably the biggest and most frequently used pyramid-like online scam. the most amusing version of this is selling a how-to book on how to sell how-to books online. how’s that for recursion? are we really that dumb? apparently yes, because that business is still thriving.
it is the all-time classic. the “secret information” that will give you the advantage. of course once everyone knows the “magic trick” it’s game over. but with the web, the steady stream of noobs seems endless. they just keep coming. life is good for the web marketer. and the ftc needs help.
so the author here is really getting back to the fundamentals. spread the wisdom.
there’s also the ego boost of being published. everyone wants to be a book author. but surely there are more interesting topics to write about.
for those wanting to know the “secret” who can’t afford the book: the secret to making money online is… to sell books on how to make money online.
there’s a guaranteed demand so long as there are noobs.
to use the example given by billy bob, if you can sell things you don’t own online, then so can your neighbour. where does it end? someone has to hold title. someone has to bear the risk.
the solution is always: find more noobs.
real esate bubbles. extending credit to people who can’t pay. =noobs
outsourcing entire workforces to the third world where people will work for peanuts. =noobs
find more noobs and all will be well. this is the lifeblood of the online economy. just click here. just touch this part of the screen. just wave your hand like this. transaction complete. thank you.
and there’s no forseeable shortage of web noobs.
