New details have surfaced about Yun Ye aka "Ult Search" the mysterious $164 million man

Quote:

To those of you who the name doesn?t ring a bell; Yun Ye, aka. ?Ult Search? had one of the largest and best domain collections and mass developed minisites from the late 90?s which were sold for 9 figures in 2005 to Marchex. Many domainers don?t even know how or why the man collected so many domains, but we?ve got all of the insights and answers at last!

Yun Ye?s domain portfolio at it?s peak had hundreds of thousands of valuable keyword domains which were primarily managed under an offshore company called Name Development Ltd as well as at least 8 ? 10 other international companies based in the Middle East and Africa.

"Originally, Ye purchased a California incorporation kit off of eBay in the early 90’s for $17.95 which came with a free expert consultation."
-- domain ebay.com didn't exist before August 95 though, got developed and popular in late 90s

other than that interesting story

Likewise. I remember reading stories years ago that he was clearing six figures PER DAY with his domains. Wasn't he the one that essentially invented backordering domains or snapping them up upon expiration?

strobi · 03-31-2010, 01:55 PM

I stopped reading halfway. Bullshit offcourse hehe :-) But I've dealt wilt YunYe alot way back in my domaining days (and still mail from time to time with Marchex too).
