South Florida Domainers to Meet Up Again March 30 in Fort Lauderdale - Domain Pros Worldwide Welcome to Drop In

When NamesCon Global moved to Miami for their 2025 conference in November, the pioneering South Florida domain community was back in the spotlight again. Prominent members of that community staged the first major domain conference ever held back in 2004 when the TRAFFIC show in Delray Beach launched a 10-year run of events held around the world.

Many of the people at that first conference are still active in one of the world's largest local social groups for industry professionals, South Florida Domainers. The group holds periodic meetups with the next one in the series coming up Monday, March 30 at Tarpon River Brewing in Fort Lauderdale.

The event, organized by industry veteran Eddie Sixto, will get underway at 7pm and anyone, whether they are local professionals or domain people just visiting from out of town, are welcome to attend. For planning purposes, it would be helpful if you used the RSVP link on the group's website but if it's a last minute decision you can just drop in and join the fun. You'll be surprised how many faces you will see that are among the Who's Who of the domain industry.

As most of the business world now knows, Larry represented the seller in brokering the biggest publicly reported domain sale of all-time - AI.com at $70 million.

There will be no formal presentations or guest speakers at the March 30 meetup — just an opportunity to enjoy good food, drinks and conversations with like-minded individuals. There is no cover charge to attend. Guests can purchase their own food and drinks at the venue. 

Incidentally, NamesCon Global will be back in Miami again for their 2026 conference, November 11 & 12 and registration is open now.
