Hi, I'd like to introduce myself. I am very much a newbie domainer (started in March) and also rather older than most domainers seem to be, so I'm on a steep learning curve and will be glad of any help I can get. In exchange, I can offer help in my own speciality, which is writing, so anyone who wants to run any text by me is very welcome to.
I live in Dublin, have been happily married for almost 40 years and have three grown children.

Some of the domainers I've met were in their 60s and 70s ...

Thanks, James. Blacknight and Forbairt, I suppose we have to distinguish between older domainers who have been doing it for a while and older newbie domainers. But my attitude is that I just have to cover more ground in a shorter time than younger domainers. I took up a competitive sport when I was 28 and ended up No.8 in Ireland about ten years later, and not in the veteran rankings either. So maybe I can do something similar with domaining, although I think I should aim for five years in this case.

Thanks, Raul. That's cheering. Although maybe it's not wise to generalise.
Introducing Sean from SiteImprove.ie
Hi All,
I joined a while back but never got to do the introduction. I'm working for a company called SiteImprove.
We supply all kinds of toys for websites that check for accessibility issues, broken links and spelling mistakes. We’re a Danish company but being Irish I’m spreading the word in Ireland so that I can get more trips home to see the folks J.
If anybody out there wants a play with our services just let me know. We also do search solutions, monitoring and web analytics solutions.
All the best , Sean

Introduction
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to take the opportunity to introduce myself to all.
Found this forum just a little while ago and have found you guys to be a great source of education!
I guess you could say anything to do with a computer left me behind 15 years ago – I’ve been working in a completely different field since leaving school. Maybe I should blame the BBC Micro’s we were made to use?? (ok, now I’m embarrassing myself…). So anyway, a couple of years ago I joined the steep learning curve that anything in IT seems to be. A night course here and there etc, but nothing too serious so far.
Current intention is to quit work and return to college next year. Daunting really.
Can’t say I can offer much help or expertise to anyone at the moment, but happy to stick my hand up with an opinion now and again – plus the usual dumb questions we newbies have.
Cheers guys,
Darren

God I miss the BBC Micro ... (Master) ...
When games were games and they took half an hour to load from the tape.
We had them in school as well or was it Vax Terminals ... talk about wasted time ... given my computer knowledge at the time and the teachers lack of knowledge
As will get said a lot on here ... the forum is for one and all ... no matter how silly you think the question is ...
A lot of people won't admit it .. or won't be logged in but they'll be in the same boat and thinking ... wow .. I'm glad someone asked that

Welcome to the forum
Welcome
I checked the pricing on some of those services and they seem to be practically double those provided by specialist companies ...

Would you mind sharing some of those competitors pls? Genuinely interested - I've test driven quite a few of these, but always interested in the next one.

Yeah - thought that might be the case.
I'm more interested in crawl technologies (surprise, surprise) and site QA. So I'm interested in products that validate code, forms and links, and also in measuring on-page SEO metrics in an automated fashion (i.e. for large and very large sites).
I know of a few, but always on the look out for others.

Ah, we not that expensive
The list price for SiteAlarm is expensive for one URL, but the more URLs a customer is checking the bigger the discount. It can do some fancy stuff like posting variables and checking the resulting content for specific words, escalating alerts, unlimited users, etc.
On the other hand customers tell us that SiteCheck (broken links, spelling and accessibility checker) beats the competition on both price and functionality. And to answer the RedCardinal we do ‘validate code, forms and links’ but we don’t measure SEO metrics. We do have a search engine solution SearchImprove which is I’d say is competitively priced, but then I would.
With SiteAnalyze our website analytics service it is hard to beat Google on price that’s for sure but we fit for customers who want specific statistics, customized reports and a human to talk to when technical questions arise.
If anybody wan't a price drop me a mail with the number of pages on the site and the area of interest. sne@siteimprove.com
