Diorex.wordpress.com was without peer in the affiliate marketing niche. This guy who calls himself ‘Diorex’ is the stuff that mentors and role models are made off. Each of his posts was gold and it was evident that he spent quality time writing them and that he had a mountain of experience to draw upon. When his blog went down, the affiliate marketing world cried. People started scrambling to retrieve old google archives of his posts, collecting them in word documents and printing them off for reference later - such was the richness of gold in his words.
Last month, I had noticed that diorex.com was about to expire and I had a novel plan to replubish all of diorex’s lost posts on it. Unfortunately, just like losing out on the problogger.com domain, my conviction was no where near strong enough. Turns out though that Diorex had not totally hanged up his boots and he actually backordered this domain himself… lo and behold… I bring you the Diorex blog relaunched at DIOREX.COM..!

Thanks for shout out.
Strangely, I had not back ordered the domain. I just was checking something else I wanted to buy and was shocked when it was available. Had offered $1,000 for it a few months back and been turned down - so $8 seemed like a bargain.
I am not sure if I will start blogging again, but figured I would throw the archives out there and see how long it took. Just curious - how did you find it?
Hi Diorex! You must have registered the domain in those couple of days that I forgot to check on it’s status. That’s $9992 I missed out on there :p Seriously though, I’m glad you’ve got it and it’s not just some stupid parked page.
I have no doubt that you will, one day, suddenly have an urge to blog your thoughts again. Would like to see you NOT blog for blogs sake though - there’s too many bloggers that feel they need to blog every day like a religious ritual.
As for finding out that you’ve reposted your blog, I noticed it through the link you used in your recent comments on uberaffiliate - Yes, I read other people’s comments too :)
