Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thank you.

Hi Carolina, has your question been answered?

Based on their reputation, I would be wary.  They might be trying to sell you a domain name that they don't even own. You should be able to check the whois record to see who owns the non-hyphenated version of the domain (assuming they don't have whois privacy setup).  If your friend really wants to get the domain, they could try to contact that domain owner directly, rather than replying to a spam email. Also, for any domain transaction (even small transactions like this), you use escrow, especially if there's reason to suspect fraud from the other party. There's a service ecop.com that specializes in low value escrow transactions.

Hey Carolina, Jarno has nailed it. Just on a side note, if you want to see the traffic for http://domain.com your web developer should be able to supply you with the server logs which will tell you similar stats to regular analytics. This is achievable because log files record requests to a server. Google Analytics record requests for pages with the Analytics code installed. Hope you can sort it Iain - Reload Media

Thanks, Darin!

Thanks for the feedback! You've all answered my question.

We got it!

Thanks for the response. I usually no-indexed the tag archives so that they won't be crawled.
