Moniker to Hold Largest Live/Silent Domain Auction in History at the TRAFFIC West Conference

LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Coffeengo.com, dealscoop.com, eventscoop.com and movershakers.com are anticipated to be among those website rights in the form of domains that will be up for bid at Moniker’s live/silent domain auction to be held at the TRAFFIC West Conference in Las Vegas on March 7. Moniker’s previous domain auction sold over $5 million last October. In this next auction, Moniker will have proxy bidding available for those not able to attend.

Marie Nelson of IndustryScoop, an Internet pioneer in event email marketing and domain owner, said, “There is a new online advertising trend by which traditional advertisers are buying brand advertising (domain names) instead of buying keyword search engine advertising.

“With a reversal of traditional brand spending, Fortune 500 brands and marketers are buying stand alone domains,” Nelson continued. “Either you can put millions of dollars into major ad campaigns or use an easy descriptive identifier to achieve similar growth, higher repeat business and in the long term, more intangible value to the business.”

As an example, the Coffeengo.com domain name could be used as a sales-based online transactional tool for coffee franchisees, grocery stores or convenience stores.

The end user benefits by streamlining the ordering process, keeping their favorites available to quickly order, and having their order ready for pick-up when they arrive. This is the ultimate coffeengo concept.

The business owner/domain holder would have a strategic competitive edge with an easy to recognize branded domain, and could anticipate continued long term growth in their business as computer mobility increases.

Domain registration suppliers - which one is best for you

by @ Thursday, February 15th, 2007. Filed under Domains, Registrars, Tips

With the rise of internet scams, identify theft, and fraud, it is more important than ever to protect your online assets-websites, personal information or emails. Therefore it is imperative that you choose a domain registration supplier who will give you the most out of your money, as well as be safe and dependable. This will help to ensure success in your online business, or whatever else your purpose one the web may be.

Since domain names are available all over the internet, it is difficult to know which ones are reliable and which ones are fraudulent. At the click of a button, anyone can buy a domain name and have their own website up and running in no time. So let’s say you have a great idea for domain name and you think you’ve found a reliable site that sells domains at a good price. But before you jump to pay to reserve your domain name right now, you need to be sure you’ve done the following:

1. Be sure that your domain registration supplier is reliable.
2. Be sure your desired domain name is not already in use. You may have to change your domain name if it is unavailable.
3. Create an account for that domain name.
4. Fill out contact information for that domain name.
5. Pay for the domain name.

In order to decide what kind of domain registration supplier will be good for you, some prior research is necessary. You must carefully search through the internet, reading up on registrars that are known to be dependable (though they may be a bit more expensive). Through this process you will also discover the registrars that are not as trustworthy, or may even be fraudulent companies.

If you are on a tight budget, you may be forced to go with a company that may be mediocre. You can find domain name prices listed on “broker” websites like http://www.domainbrokersites.com/, http://www.domaintraderhq.com/, or http://www.dotnaming.com/. (These are only suggestions. There are no guarantees that you will find what you’re looking for on these pages).

Some domain registrars have been in business for years. That is a fairly safe way to tell that they are probably a reliable company. Most offer a one-page starter website to help you as you begin to design your webpage. Some also offer 24 hour customer support for when you encounter problems that you can’t figure out. Some companies charge more for a domain name that covers domains worldwide, and not just the .com, or .co.uk. Few companies offer a 30-day money back guarantee if you aren’t satisfied with your domain. You may want a company that offers virus protection as well as anti-spam for your domain. This may or may not be something you’re interested in (it also comes at a slightly higher price). An even smaller group of registrars offer access to expert advice from professionals. This may be especially helpful if you are new to the world of web design.

Although it is possible to purchase domain names for as little as $1.99 a month, be wary of the quality of service as well as quality domain that you are purchasing. It may be that for your purposes, a cheap domain would be fine. Perhaps are already an old pro at the web and don’t need the option for customer service or professional advice that other companies offer. The cheaper domains usually don’t offer all the extras that more expensive ones do. However, if you are new to the world of domain registration, you may want to consider purchasing a domain that comes along with customer support, a money-back guarantee and professional advice.
