"Finding the right domain name is extremely important for any marketer, entrepreneur, small business or individual, and is an exercise that has traditionally required searching for domains that are not “taken,” or finding a way to purchase the perfect name from its current owner. To address these challenges, Sedo, the online domain marketplace, and Moniker®, a leading domain name registrar, auction house and brokerage, today announced an expansion of their partnership that will enable users to search for both new and previously registered domains in one convenient location.
“A crucial factor to a business’s success is their domain name’s effectiveness in allowing users to find and remember them; and there’s no reason for businesses to settle for a less than an ideal domain name,” said Craig Snyder, General Manager of Moniker. “Our experience in the industry is unmatched in assisting businesses in finding their ideal domain name, as we’ve been offering customers domain registration, auction and brokerage services for more than a decade. Now, by expanding our partnership with Sedo, we’re also providing access to millions of domains that are already registered and listed for sale.”
With more than 15 million domains listed for sale, Sedo is the world’s largest domain marketplace and monetization provider. Through its Multi Listing Service, SedoMLS, the company enables registrars to give customers an added convenience that will help them find the right domain, whether its already been registered or not.
“Just like physical real estate, domains are unique assets that appreciate in value once they’re purchased from a registry. This is something that’s important for people to understand when they compare prices side by side,” said Tim Schumacher, CEO of Sedo. “Purchasing a name directly from the registry is an ideal situation, but the perfect name may not always be available. Through our partnership with Moniker, we’re able to provide people with the widest number of domain choices so that they can make a convenient and informed decision when purchasing a domain for their business.”
