The lovely "Love Train" video...

Probably the most interesting thing, about domain extensions, are the activities of the supporting communities of the domain extensions.
It basically does not matter, how your domain extension looks like, for it to be successful:
What depends and matters, is how it is promoted.
Follow the history of .com, and you will understand, how and why it got strong and popular.
You can follow the history of promotion and forum-support of any domain extension, and you might be able to discover parallels of smart endeavours, time (-line) and success. (Only love, provided by a fan community, is not enough, to make a domain extension succesfull. See .mobi, for example. It is viable, respectively still alive, because of the love it gets, but to be able to be sucessful, it will need some more support, by the powerful companies, that are supposed to be backing it up. And so, same with .tel...)
Basically, it is always common sense, that saves you, a project, or anything in progress that happen to be in a awkward situation.

What counts, are costly and smart pomoting, time and common sense, that must always be used.
The non usage of common sense and brains, it the death to anything.
The non usage of money, won't help promote, because promoting costs.
The cultivation of plein stupidity may be bad, in times, may be good in other times, because people are sometimes stupid, and trained by media and advertising, not to think, but only to consume, what is offered. The language of stupidity is a language, mankind has learned over the years, and understands. Whatever way you are able to make your self understood: You can earn money, if people understand, what you are selling.

The mixture, of intelligence, stupidity, sex, common sense, etc., is what sells.
Try to sell a perfect and usefull product, only by explaining how it functions, and for it is good: Consumers are not used, only to get dry facts served. They are spoiled, and used to get a daily dosis of adverts, that contain sex, crazyness, stunning effects, etc., and where they do not have to think, but only consume.

And now, here you are with the dot tel domain, in our world today: How are you going to sell it?
The „Love Train“ was popular, because it is funny and sexy, and only explained a minimum of the technology, idea, and features about .tel.
If you will, the „Love Train“ is a promotion video for dummies, that just want a good lough, and some sexual stimulation. Well, the „Love Train“ did the trick, and worked for a short while, and only for a few.
But who are the consumers of .tel?...: All sorts of people and groups. Speak to them (and about their needs and dreams) individually. Make ten completly different videos, addressed to ten different groups of consumers...
.
Anyway:
Here is the code for implementing the (premium qualitiy version of the) video within your blog (however, it is still a stunner and a eye catcher, and nevertheless, a lot of fun):
(Just copy and paste...):

How to place advertising with Perl and WebService-Telnic module (Solution for Linux and Mac OS)



Telnic forum. Thread about advertising within .tel, for Linux and Mac OS:
Quote:

It looks like WebService-Telnic module from Peter Makholm is working.

Here is small KNOW-HOW, on how to place advertising on Dot Tel domain by using Perl, although part is hand made, part with Perl.

1. Use the supplied small script, where you will change on bottom the advertising title, URL, description and position priorities.

2. Run the script like this:
perl tel-putads2.pl -domain=yourdomainhere.tel -user=Z12345678 -pass=123pass111

Soon, you will be enjoying the placement of advertising on your Dot Tel, like here shown http://adresar.tel

If you need help, let me know, and I can help you on this simple task.

I don't know, but for some reason I really like Dot Tel. It has search engine power, and most of all, you don't need nothing but domain to run it.

-------------------

Who is on Mac or Linux, opens up terminal, and run the updated script attached below like this:

perl tel-putads2.pl -domain=example.tel -user=MyNameHere -pass=Incorrect -adtitle="Here comes the Blue Title" -adgreen="www.greenurl.com" -adurl="http://www.example.com" -addesc="Text description with not that much text." -position=bottom

This is not run over website. It is run locally on the computer. This script does not delete previous ads, it simply ads new advertising. Position can be specified as top, bottom or right.

.Tel promotion via brick and mortar businesses

I think, that promoting the dot tel Internet domain, would work best, through brick and mortar businesses.

Especially via the mobile phone industry.

What is a brick and mortar business?:

Quote Wikipedia:
"Brick and mortar (B&M) refers to a company that possesses a building or store for operations[1]. The name is a metonym derived from the traditional building materials associated with physical buildings – bricks and mortar – in contrast with online stores, which have no physical presence.
In the jargon of eCommerce, brick and mortar businesses are companies that have a physical presence — a physical store — and offer face-to-face consumer experiences. This term is usually used to contrast with a transitory business or an internet-only presence, such as an online shop. An example would be the movie-rental shop Blockbuster Video, which has physical stores and is in competition with the newer online rental services offered by Netflix."

Why B&M, and not the Internet?:

The strongest and widest spread promotion for the dot tel domain had been done by registrars: Just google for .tel, and you can see, what I mean ("dot tel", or "dot tel domain", etc.).
But looking at most of that information and and most of those web pages, show, that the information is outdated.

B&M promotion can't get outdated. Because such a sales promotion has a beginning and a end.
Wheras Google only got cluttered up with old .tel information.
And still now: It is hard to separate the newest .tel info from the old .tel info, from a year, or nearly a year ago.

Basically anybody with a B&M shop presence could do .tel promotion, which would be much more effective, than most attempts to set up a website promotion on the web.

Financially spoken: Every sort of .tel promotion, that takes place online, will have a high opportunity cost, compared with promoting .tel offline.
Opportunity cost can be conceptualized as the amount of money one could have made by making a different promotion decision.
The difference between the value of the decision you did make and the value of the alternative is the opportunity cost.
In other words: We are loosing a lot of money, by not promoting the dot tel domain in a different way (offline, instead of online).
And so, therefor, promoting a product the right way, is about earning a lot of money.
Money and value, that would be simply lost, by staying with the old promotion concept.

About opportunity cost:
http://financial-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Alternative+cost

Further more, we would have to declutter Google, and delete all the outdated .tel info and promotion.
Respectively, tell all registrars and resellers, to either delete the old info, or to update their .tel promo pages.

Conclusion:
Tel promotion via brick and mortar businesses, and decluttering Google from outdated .tel info, would show significant and stunning results.

And: If we do not do it, we will continue loosing a lot of money in the mid and long term (opportunity cost).
Doing nothing, or spending a lot of money for online .tel promotion, is false economy.

3 (.com) + 3 (.tel) = 18 possible .com pageviews:

3 (.com) + 3 (.tel) = 18 possible .com pageviews:

All businesses, who have a .tel domain, won't only have a .tel.

They will be using their .tel to point to their .com.

.Tel is only the working donkey, who directs the clients to the .com website.

If you have got a .com, you can set up a few donkeys: "i-aaaaa, ii-aaaa-iii-aaaaa...": One donkey is good, three donkeys, are even better:

Example:

fruitdish.com
fruitdish.tel (donkey directing to fruitdish.com)
allsortsfruit.tel (donkey2 directing to fruitdish.com)
fruitland.tel (donkey3 directing to fruitdish.com)
.
:blink:
.
If you wanna be big biz:

Get:
allsortsfruit.com
fruitland.com

And teach your positioned donkeys to direct to those websites as well (by adding them to your .tel's)
.
Conclusion:
If you got a few biz websites, get a few .tel's, and direct-direct (matching domain names), and cross-direct to your .com's (non-matching domain names).
.
If you where able to follow me: Here is another szenario:

Ok:
You have the tree (.com)'s, as well as the three (.tel)'s, and can do:

3 times direct-direct to .com's.
2 times cross-direct
antother 2 times cross-direct
and anoter 2 times cross-direct

That is pointing to three .com's: 9 times. By using three tel's.

Anyway:
You can set up more pointers:
How?:

Put a "Contact Us" .tel page, on each .com website:

This way, you simply repeat the szenario:
3 times direct-direct to .com's.
2 times cross-direct
antother 2 times cross-direct
and anoter 2 times cross-direct

And get totally 18 pointers to your three .com websites.

Take away 3 self pointers, and you got 15 useful pointers.

Conclusion:
By using "Contact Us" .tel pages, you can double your number of pointer links.
.
Recapitulation:
To get 15 pointer links, you have:

3 .com websites
3 .tel webpages
3. "Contact Us" .tel pages on the three existing websites.

Which give you: 3 direct hits, and 15 indirect pointer hits to .com websites, and a total of 18 posibilities to click on your 3 .com domains (here, you have 6 domains and 18 possibilities to get a click to one of your 3 .com websites.).

Without 3 .tel domains, you would only get 3 direct hits, instead of 18 hits to your 3 .com domains.

New dashboard features for controlling your .tel domain


New function for the folder part of the .tel dashboard:

Changing names of subdomains:

Excursion:
About foders:

Folders functionality expands the navigation capability of your .tel domain.

If you have a lot of contact points, you probably want to spread them on several pages. This will provide a better visibility of your contact details in mobile devices with small displays. In this case, you should use the Folders option to logically group the contact information – like business details, favorite links, social media sites, professional information and more.
Technically, a folder is a sub-domain of your .tel domain. You can set a direct link to it.
Entering your folder name:
Enter the folder name. You can enter only letters, digits and hyphens in the subfolder name. A subfolder must contain at least one letter and its minimum length is 3 characters. The links to the folder in a browser will have initial capital letters and any hyphens will be converted to spaces. For example "my-business" will be visualized as "My Business". Once you are ready click on the Save button.
The Dashboard will only show the first level of sub-folders. If you want to view a deeper folder level, click on the corresponding subfolder. The contact information under the subfolders can be managed in the same way as under the main fodler.

End of Excursion.

Telnic has included a few more functions for de folders part of the dashboard:
They are only minor changes, but they can simplyfie handling nevertheless.

One is now able to change the the names of the subdomains at one single area of the dashboard.

When you hover with the mouse over the list of subdomains, you get to see icons, such a a pencil and a waste bin, with which you are able to do the different tasks.

You have to be very careful, with the deleting function:
In order to delete a folder, hover the mouse over its name and click on the Delete link. By deleting a folder you will permanently remove all of its sub-folders, the contact details and the corresponding items.
Accidentically deleting can have some serious consequenses...
Therefore, it would be wise, to have backuped the .tel domain before (for example, by using the .tel tool tel-machine, and its backup function).


New function for the .tel dashboard:

Changing the title of your .tel domain:

Till now, the domain name on the TelProxy of a .tel domain was quasi „given“, and pre configured, and corresponded with the name of the domain.

Now you are able to customise that title/name, and have 255 characters provided.
Which allows you to make a extensive title for your TelProxy.

According to the complexity of your title, the font size will be automatically adapted.
For each 10 character words, there will oviously be a own CSS tag: One for maximum 10 characters, one for 20 characters, one for 30 characters, and so forth...
The longer the title, the more the font size shrinks,
Furthermore, there will be implemented a sub title, with the same name, as your domain name.

Because the title of a TelProxy is important for search engines, as well: with this possibility, you have another SEO option, respectively, more SEO potential.


New function for the .tel dashboard:

New contact types:


The list of contact types, has been extended, as well, here:
Telnic only mentioned, that there is a new type of „user“...:
With this option, one should be able to, for example, deposit his username for online services or games, and can add a short comment, as well.

I did notice, when I over saw eveything, that there is also a typ, so called „Info“: Either, I had over seen that, up and till now, or it had been added, as new, as well.

For me, this typ is so far of interest, because one can integrate further text in to a .tel domain, with this. This text (maximum 255 characters) can be displayed on the TelProxy, according to your preferences.
With this feature, you have another option: next to integrating keywords, to integrate text on the TelPoxy.

Advertisements within .tel, with "TEL-Advert": A extension tool of TEL-MACHINE.


Dot Tel News:

Advertisements within .tel, with "TEL-Advert": A extension tool of TEL-MACHINE.

TEL-MACHINE.com is offering a new tool extension for its users: TEL-Advert.

In August, Telnic presented a new format for advertising within .tel domains:

With help of this extension, Telcic allows every .tel domain owner to create advertisements on his TelProxy.

This was difficult to achieve, because of technical restrictions.

The TEL-MACHINE team has taken a closer look at that feature, and recognized, that there would be more technical skills needed to achieve the task, than the average .tel user has.
Respectively, Telnic assumes, that the users that want to set up their ads, have enough technical knowledge and skills, to be abel to read, understand, and follow their instructions for advertisements within .tel, as well as to be able to achieve the task.

Fact is, that a majority of .tel domain users, are lacking those skills. Therefore, the team of TEL-MACHINE has decided, within reasonable time, to make a extension tool to integrate in to TEL-MACHINE.

1.)
The handling of this extension tool „TEL-Advert“, is very simple:
In a first step, you create your advertisement:
Next to the information about title, the text of the ad, the URI, as well as the URI label, you can also use as many key words, as you like.

2.)
Furthermore, you have the possibility to activate a payment process, where you can give in a price per click, according to your requirements.

3.)
In a second step, you are able to set the positon for your ad on your TelProxy, via „drag and drop“.

4.)
Also, you are able to define, on which of your .tel domains, you would like to have the advertisement displayed.

5.)
In addition, one can choose, if one only wants to have ads displayed, on single subdomains, or on all existing domains.

6.)
Furthermore, one is able to select from a bigger choice from advertisment types, such as standard advertisment types, or a modus by random selection, and switch between both choices.

Example:
Within the header area, according to the Telnic options, you can only have maximum 2 advertisements displayed.
But, with the new method, if you simply select a bigger amount ads for the advertisement fields, and display them in the header area, then the advertisement will show up on your TelProxy according to to „automatic random selection“.

7.)
After all advertisements have been created and displayed, it takes about twenty five minutes, till the advertisements are visible on the TelProxy.

A process, which would go quicker, is not possible, due to technical reasons.

With this system, you are also able to modifye, deactivate, or delete a selected advertisement.

Conclusion:

The extension tool for TEL-MACHINE: „TEL-Advert“, completes the pre-existing services of .tel domain tools of TEL-MACHINE.com.
There will be more functions to be added to TEL-MACHINE, soon.

Comments:

This is a official Newsletter from the developers of TEL-MACHINE, and has been translated by Alexander Schiesser, developer and owner of Telcommerce.biz, a commercial .tel domain name directory.

Thank you, for your kind attention.

How to advertise within .tel

.

How To: Advertisements within .tel

.
Update:
------------------

1.) Download Telhosting_Client.php from the Telnic developer site.

2.) Use a PHP code to enter a TXT ad, according to the sample PHP code.

3.) Insert PHP code / advertisement TXT record in Telhosting_Client.php.?
Insert username and password (for your client.wsdl file), as well as your domain name,
within the adverstisement TXT record PHP code:

4.) NOTE: THIS USES A LOCAL client.wsdl FILE AS EXPLAINED IN THE
Telhosting_Client.php DOCS
$config = array();
$config['login'] = 'INSERT_USERNAME_HERE';
$config['password'] = 'INSERT_PASSWORD_HERE';
$config['wsdl'] = './client.wsdl';
$domain = 'mydomain.tel'

Follow the instructions in the Telhosting_Client.php script:
With PHP, you MUST download the client.wsdl file from your provider, modify it a little bit, and then things will go fine. This information is contained at the top o the Telhosting_Client.php script.:

* 1. Download the client WSDL from YOUR registrar, save it in the same directory as this file and name the downloaded file: client.wsdl
*
* 1.5 Don't know where your registrar put the WSDL file? Open an command-line client on UNIX and write: dig _soap._nspapi.yourdomain.tel naptr where you replace yourdomain with your actual domain. Then take either the http or https url and append to it "?wsdl" (so it will end in "...client?wsdl")
* That's the url for your registrar's WSDL file.
*
* 2. Edit client.wsdl -- find the string: "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap/bindings/HTTP/" and replace it by: "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http". If you don't do that, PHP will throw a fatal error: "SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: PHP-SOAP doesn't support transport 'http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap/bindings/HTTP/'".




Example:

Domain:

stead.tel

Ad:

Plumber
24 Hour Fast Response Plumbers
10% Book Online Discount Today!
xwww.ReactFast.co.uk/Plumbers

Preparation:

IN TXT ".tad" "1" "1" "51"
"Advert Title" "Plumber"
"label" "www.ReactFast.co.uk/Plumbers"
"uri" "http://www.reactfast.co.uk" "uri" "=243423543&z=42342343"
"desc" "24 Hour Fast Response Plumbers" "desc" "10% Book Online Discount
Today !"

".tad":
Is the suffix for the text ad, within the ad record.

'owner' => '_ad':
An advertisment is a TXT record with the '.tad' prefix, placed in the '_ad sub-domain' of the current domain, such as '_ad.mybusiness.tel'.
To store a ad record in the '_ad' folder, set its owner within the syntax of the ad record correctly to owner="_ad". This way, you don't need to create a folder separately.

Numbers:
"1" stands for 'version, currently "1" ', the other "1" stands for "displayed at top of the page", and "51" acts as the sort order for each display set.

Label:
Text string up to 255 bytes long. It is the anchor text of the below URI.

URI: Points to the product of the ad.


According to sample PHP code:

----------------

include('Telhosting_Client.php');
$ad = array(
'text' => array('.tad', '1',
'1', '51',
'Advert Title', 'Plumbers',
'label', 'www.ReactFast.co.uk/Plumbers',
'uri', 'http://www.reactfast.co.uk',
'uri', '=243423543&z=42342343',
'desc', "24 Hour Fast Response Plumbers\nLine 2 of",
'desc', "10% Book Online Discount
Today !"),
'profiles' => '_all_',
'owner' => '_ad'
);
// Config
// NOTE: THIS USES A LOCAL client.wsdl FILE AS EXPLAINED IN THE Telhosting_Client.php DOCS
$config = array();
$config['login'] = 'INSERT_USERNAME_HERE';
$config['password'] = 'INSERT_PASSWORD_HERE';
$config['wsdl'] = './client.wsdl';
$domain = 'stead.tel';

// Initialize our client
$client = new Telhosting_client($config);
// Insert some data
$client->store_record($domain, 'txt', $ad);
?>
----------------



---------------------

Update:

(An advertisment is a TXT record with the '.tad' prefix, placed in the '_ad sub-domain' of the current domain, such as '_ad.mybusiness.tel'.

The syntax of the ad record, is specified by an XML schema.

To be able to advertise within your .tel, you need "internal SOAP API" from your .tel registrar / provider:
SOAP is a simple XML-based protocol that allows applications to exchange information over HTTP.
HTTP + XML = SOAP
Or more simply: SOAP is a protocol for accessing a web service.

To be able to advertise within your .tel, you need the client.wsdl file from your .tel registrar / provider:
WSDL bindings defines the message format and protocol details for a web service.

To store a ad record in the '_ad' folder, set its owner within the syntax of the ad record correctly to owner="_ad". This way, you don't need to create a folder separately:

typ:storeRecordRequest domainName="mybusiness.tel"
typ:txt profiles="_all_" owner="_ad"

But: the TelHosting control panel won't support ad management. You have to inserted your ad by using the APIs,

Telnic Ltd. provides a Java-based TelHosting Software application. This application interacts with the DNS directly, and exposes a publicly available web service, using SOAP over HTTP as its protocol. Client applications implementing this SOAP interface can work with the TelHosting Software application to perform all .tel-related operations.

In addition to the client service API, the TelHosting Software exposes an internal API for administration purposes.

To be able to advertise within your .tel, you need "internal SOAP API", as well as client.wsdl file from your .tel registrar / provider, and then modify the file a little bit:

Find the string: "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap/bindings/HTTP/" and replace it by: "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http".

Edit the TelHosting class: look for: $config['wsdl'] (around line 173) and set the variable to: "./client.wsdl" instead of the full URL.

And now, you can insert your ad records by using the APIs.

And your advertisement should show up, on your TelProxy.)
.
It may be complecated, but that is how it is:
Currently, you can choose between doing it your self, or going to mytel.me. and use the tool, which is offered to use, and which is free.

The guys from Jepaa, will soon come up with a solution, which you will be able to find within TEL-MACHINE,

--------------------
Adverts on your .tel are finally here ... thank you Telnic

http://www.hotele.tel

http://www.tans.tel
http://www.condos.tel
http://www.adfly.tel
http://www.2tweet.tel
http://www.joomlacms.tel


It is about placing ads on the TelProxy.

You can choose, where you would like to put your ads: top, right, below.

Display Preference:
span style="font-weight:bold;">1 for top of the page
2 for right of the page
3 for foot of the page

You want your ad to look like this:

span style="font-weight:bold;">Plumber24 Hour Fast Response Plumbers
10% Book Online Discount Today!
www.ReactFast.co.uk/Plumbers

Again:
You have do some coding (read manual), and code your ad content in this way:

* span style="font-weight:bold;">Position, Location and Sort Sequence (IN TXT ".tad" "1" "1" "51")

* span style="font-weight:bold;">Title ("Plumber")

* span style="font-weight:bold;">Label (Is used as linktext for the linking, and will be used as last line within the add: "www.ReactFast.co.uk/Plumbers")

* span style="font-weight:bold;">Link (Link leading to the adverted product: "uri" "http://www.reactfast.co.uk" "uri" "=243423543&z=42342343")

* span style="font-weight:bold;">Text Content ("desc" "24 Hour Fast Response Plumbers" "desc" "10% Book Online Discount Today !")

And if you do it right, your ad will apear, with title, websit link, and text, at your favored position.



Display Preference:
span style="font-weight:bold;">1 for top of the page

3 for foot of the page

You want your ad to look like this:

span style="font-weight:bold;">Plumber24 Hour Fast Response Plumbers

You have to frst store/add the advertisment records first, before you create the ad folder.
Use owner parameter.

Advertisment TXT records are created and modified via the "storeRecords SOAP command"

Advertisment Record.

How do I advertise within my .tel domain?



Please take note:

Up and till now, there seems not to exist a adaptation / adjustment of the web interface of a provider.
This does mean, that you, as an end user, are not able to advertise witin your .tel, up and till now.

Neverthe less, I suggest, that you get started, and read all the instructions, and get familiar with the tasks...:

Basically, the structure of your add looks like this:


* Position/Location of your add (top, right, below)
* Sort Sequence
* Title (max. 255 characters for the title within the add)
* Label (Is used as linktext for the linking, and will be used as last line within the add)
* Link (Link leading to the adverted product)
* Text Content
