SnapNames Extends Reach To Live AuctionsSnapNames Live will debut at DOMAINfest Global’s Hollywood Event in January 2008; Transparency, Online Bidding are Hallmarks October 18, 2007; 10:25 AM Portland, OR – SnapNames, an Oversee.net company and the volume leader in aftermarket domain sales, will debut SnapNames Live™, a live auction system for premium domains, at DOMAINfest Global’s Hollywood, California event in January 2008. SnapNames Live uses as its foundation the company’s proven high volume online auction platform. Long a favorite of the world’s largest domain name buyers and sellers, SnapNames leads the auction market with tens of thousands of completed sales and transfers each month. The new service demonstrates SnapNames’ commitment to expanding the domain aftermarket by bringing a new level of transparency and operational excellence to premium auction events. In partnership with DomainSponsor™, the producer of DOMAINfest Global™, SnapNames Live will conduct a themed, premium auction each day of the conference, rather than a single monolithic event. “We’ve learned from attendees that one of the main reasons they attend domain name conferences is to buy and sell names,” said SnapNames CEO Sudhir Bhagwan. “In recognition of this, we’re featuring auctions each day of the event. This allows us to offer shorter and more targeted auctions that minimize bidder fatigue, keep interest high, and reach more segments of the audience.” SnapNames Live builds on the company’s recently-launched individual seller program, where names are listed at the seller’s choice of reserve pricing in a fast-moving, competitive daily auction.
SnapNames Live features SnapNames Live will feature premium names, and deliver equal advantages to both buyers and sellers. System features include:
