Merlin will receive an all inclusive vacation for 2 to St. Lucia where he will spend 7 blissful days doing whatever he wants – surrounded by the serenity that accompanies paradise.

Overview of competition: January, February and March are Travel month here at Elephant Traffic.  We are focusing largely on our travel parnters, domains and advertisers.  With this in mind we decided we’d have a little incentive for our current partners and in efforts to gain new domain partners in order to help monetize their travel related traffic.  Offering RPM’s of $165 (minimum) on top of a chance to win a free vacation seemed to peak the interest of many.  For every re-direct our partners offered to run through us we awarded them a number.  The more re-directs, the more numbers = a greater chance of winning.  At the end of the competition (15th of February) we put all the numbers into a random number generator (www.random.org) and the process began.  Out popped #425258 which belongs to Merlin Kauffman.

Even though the vacation giveaway is over we will still continue to grow our domainer partner base and offer $165 RPM’s travel traffic.  So if you are not happy with your current parking revenue and want to give us a try make sure to send us your domain names so we can start selling the traffic immediately!

Again, Congratulations to Merlin Kauffman!

Day 1: We ran a complimentary massage booth for everyone to come by and take a load off while talking a bit of business.  The first ever Pitchfest was  a large success and had all the buzz.  We were fortunate to have an opportunity to present, and although we didn’t win the competition, couldn’t have asked for better publicity through any other medium. Day 1 was concluded by the .CO mixer where we all enjoyed exotic dances and libations.

Day 2: Keynote talk by Tony Hsieh (CEO of Zappos.com) was a very inspirational talk that gave perspective to the work atmosphere and necessity of having a strong foundation of office culture as one of the cornerstones to a healthy and successful business.  The night was capped off with a private event at the Getty where attendees were granted a private viewing of the galleries fantastic work.

Day 3: Pitchfest session 2 and conference wind down.  Our massage booth appears to have been a hit especially in the end as attendees have been sitting and talking throughout the event – getting a bit of relaxation therapy seems to have been just the spot. Tonights evening will conclude with a bash at the Playboy Mansion – which is sure to be entertaining in itself, topped off by 3 days of networking coming to end and an early weekend will have the ingredients for an eventful evening.

Overall the Domainfest event has been ran very well and our experience has been nothing but positive both personally for business.  We look forward to coming back next year to meet up with all our new contacts and old friends!
