This is the 2nd time this has happened to me I just registered a name and a week or so later I get this call from A+ marketing company that want to help me with my new name. They of course offer a full range of services from hosting to SEO. Anyone else getting these calls?
How do thy get a list of just registered names? From my registrar - Oh My!

Is that kind of information freely available to others, Brett? Or, is there some criteria which needs to be met first?

Similar: i registered a new (prev unregistered, virgin) .com domain for a client. After < 12 hours the mx started to receive >100 emails/day to jack@domain.com, joe@domain.com, xfylsz@domain.com mostly coming from china & co ... they obviously scan fresh whois data. The day i'll retire, i gonna hunt those a**es.
