1,500 domains x 10 seconds per domain (automate it down to 1 second per domain!) =

$5,000,000/month x 30% more = $1,500,000/month more.
I'll make the DNS changes for you if you give ME the extra money that comes in.
Even though the numbers above are 'made up', if you are losing even a few percent of
your potential business due to confused potential visitors, wouldn't it be worth FOUR
HOURS of work to gain a few percent more?
