GiftsForGuys.com — the place to go to buy for your guy

People have always given gifts, and the convenience of online shopping has given an added boost to the gift industry which has grown to a $50 billion business.

In 2006, 80% of American internet users planned to do some, or all of their holiday shopping online. Nearly a quarter of those people planned to spend most of their holiday budget online. As women search for the perfect gift for their spouse or significant other who has everything, it is no surprise that GiftsForGuys.com has become an online success.

"A good domain name will drive natural organic traffic to your site and jump start your business plan." — Chuck Townsend, CEO

Traffic is the best present for this guy
Chuck Townsend, the entrepreneurial mind behind Gifts for Guys, started his online store a few years ago. He decided to take a break from an under-funded project management job and start his own business — thus Gifts for Guys was born.

Townsend hesitated to make the investment on a premium domain and subsequently watched the domain name triple in price! In the end, he decided to take the plunge and purchase the domain. Explains Townsend, "I realized the price would only go up due to the high amount of traffic this type of name can generate."

As a result of this extraordinary domain purchase his site receives an enormous amount of organic traffic — so much that he does not even have to advertise! Townsend simply promotes Gifts for Guys through link exchanges, writing articles, and has also included a blog on the site.

Townsend's advice to fellow internet entrepreneurs is to "Be passionate and follow your dream but lock in a domain name ASAP because the price of virtual real estate continues to rise. The subjective value of my domain name has increased tenfold since I purchased it."
