Joe Alagna reputation or opinion as an internet billionaire? You decide.

Joe Alagna reputation, opinion, optimization, and control of his name can be an important thing. What others write in reviews, newspapers and public places about joe alagna cannot always be controlled or swept away, by the person being written about.

Is Joe Alagna still working for CentrlNic, Ltd. as GM, for its N. American Markets?
I wrote this post over 2-3 years ago, and have not updated the information.

We at the blog for the real internet billionaires have been getting phone calls from someone claiming to be Joe Alagna.

Someone claiming to be Joe Alagna, has been asking that his information be removed from the real internet billionaires, regardless of how flattered he is at our estimation of his worth.

When we first wrote this post, we learned through a press release, that Joe Alagna is the General Manager, North American Markets for CentralNic, Ltd., an independent, UK based, domain name registry. Joe Alagna started the company in 2001, and has helped CentralNic to transform a small group of UK based resellers into an international sales channel including domain name registrars like eNom, Dotster, and Name.com.

We also learned from the press release, that has since been removed, that because of Joe Alagna's work at CenralNic, the company has become the largest private sub-domain name registry in the world, marketing sub-domains based on US.COM, UK.COM, and many others. CentralNic has also become the registry for LA Names (dot.LA).

The press release of Joe Alagna concluded, that in 2006, Joe came up with the idea of creating a turn-key registry solution for domainers. The result was a new CentralNic division called Personal Net Names that helps private domainers to offer their sub-domains to the general market very quickly and easily.

From the press release, we also learned the history back in the 80's of Joe Alagna which said:
Joe's management experience spans some 30 years. During the 1980s, he built the leading sales team for a Chicago based direct sales company, JRC Industries. After moving to California and noticing a positive trend in the mobile phone business, Joe became a National Account Manager for AT&T Wireless. His team managed and closed some of the largest national accounts within the company, including Enterprise Rent-a-Car, Boeing, and a 1.8 million dollar national account agreement with Kinkos.

From the press release, we also learned the history in the 90's of Joe Alagna which said: In 1996, Joe conceived of and managed the creation of one of the first web sites in the wireless industry. That site has since been folded into the AT&T Wireless web site. But through that experience and subsequent studies, Joe has become an expert in domain names, PPC, SEO, and online marketing.

From the press release, we also learned the history in the new millennium of Joe Alagna which said: Joe left AT&T Wireless in 1999 to focus on the Internet. He began by building his own collection of domain names which he still maintains today. On a personal note, he likes to be involved in his church and community. He volunteers as often as possible, playing music for children at his church and for old folks at a nearby assisted living center. Joe also volunteers a few times each year to teach a class in online marketing, which he created for the Inland Empire Small Business Development Center.

Family Life of Joe Alagna:
Joe Alagna lives in Southern California with his wife of 28 years and his two sons.
