Andrey Mikhalchuk’s Blog

I’m getting really nice emails with congratulations on selling pizza.com. From time to time I’m also finding posts and articles about how lucky I am. Thank you very much!! The only problem with that is

I’M NOT THE OWNER OF PIZZA.COM DOMAIN!

Never was and most probably never will be. I’m the one who made the http://www.pizza.com website (design, programming, system support etc) as a hobby project, but this is it.

Anyway, thanks to everyone - I’m forwarding your really nice emails with congratulations on selling pizza.com and posts and articles about how lucky I am to the real (former) owner of the domain. I’m sure he is glad to get them - he is a really nice guy.

   [...] Домен pizza.com был продан за 2.6 млн. баксов. Хоть некоторые и считают, что купить его за такую сумму было равнозначно воровству. Но цифра все равно красивая. Жаль конечно, что домен сей не имеет украинских корней. [...]

   Or this is it? Cause I think it’s a little … well, it does bring a bit of an “old” air :) no offense :D

   Hi Andrey,

   Just wondering… Do you have any idea when the new Pizza.com site (under new ownership) will be up? Interested in knowing the business model behind that kind of Domain purchase.

   Thanks.

   Paul,

   Unfortunately I cannot share any information related to pizza.com including what will happen to the website. I think the only person who can answer this and similar questions is the current legal owner of the domain.

   Thank you for your interest!
   Andrey

   dragoshell,

   As I mentioned before I cannot share any information, but something makes me think that with the amount of money involved into pizza.com business the website development won’t stop at its current point of development. This is just IMHO.

   Regarding “old” air - could you please submit your ideas about what should be changed about the pizza.com website? Please use the contact form on pizza.com website: http://pizza.com/contact-us.php?

   Thank you!
   Andrey
