Methadone Domain Name Aims To Educate

December 31st, 2010
Comments Off

Menius Enterprises acquired the domain name Methadone.US some months ago. I have been developing the domain into a methadone treatment information site using the DevHub website builder.

Chemical dependency is a prevalent illness in American society and many of us have encountered it in one form or another, either directly or indirectly. Methadone is a very specific medication-assisted treatment approach used to help those suffering with an opiate dependency.

In recent years, methadone treatment clinics have steadily emerged across the USA as more individuals found themselves trying to cope with opiate withdrawal and the disruption to their lives that addiction brings. Methadone.US aims to reduce the stigma associated with methadone and to provide some basic information on the many benefits of methadone treatment programs.

The Methadone.US domain name is an ideal generic web address particularly for U.S. based residents, families, professionals, and treatment centers. As is typically the case, the time required to develop a comprehensive web portal is hard work. Writing and refining custom content (carefully screened for accuracy and relevance) can become very time consuming. But the effort is worthwhile when the end product provides a valuable service.

Taking a great domain and constructing something of value on that domain (where nothing existed previously) is a gratifying endeavor. Content generation is more art than science and is best approached with a quality, over quantity, focus. This has been a chief consideration in the authoring of Methadone.US.

The site is still under construction, but is taking a definite shape and form. It will eventually be monetized through paid directory listings and direct advertising. But for now is incorporating Google adsense feeds, many of which are an excellent match to the content provided on the website. In terms of easy access and the marketing of a new site, starting with a logical, premium domain name is always a big help.

MyRecovery.com Domain Name Acquired by Treatment Center

November 24th, 2010

The domain name, MyRecovery.com, was just acquired by a Minnesota alcohol rehab facility known as The Retreat. They provide a 12 Step based 30-day recovery program for people seeking recovery from addiction.

The Retreat was the dream & vision of several local professionals and people interested in offering a program founded on the principles of recovery embodied in Alcoholics Anonymous. Their acquisition of MyRecovery.com appears to be a next step in getting the word out about the benefits of alcohol & drug rehab and the promise of recovery.

An announcement page at the web address suggests the site will become an online resource for clients, families, friends, and professionals seeking inspiration and information on getting help for addiction. Thanks to Andrew Alleman of DomainNameWire for posting on the sale of the MyRecovery.com domain name.

He reported that well known domain investor, Michael Berkens, was the previous owner and sold the quality name for $40,000 through Afternic’s online brokerage. Congrats to both Michael and The Retreat on this interesting deal. The domain name is an excellent way for The Retreat to connect with thousands of people interested in recovery.
