Los Angeles - Oversee.net, a
technology-driven media company, today announced its acquisition of a
privately-held domain name portfolio of 35,000 Internet domain names.
Oversee.net monetizes more than one million domain names and has more
than 100 million unique visitors per month. The Company owns
DomainSponsor, which is the industry leader in domain monetization.
Because DomainSponsor has a close relationship with the domainer
community, Oversee has a unique ability to quickly execute potential
acquisitions.
Commenting on the transaction, Lawrence Ng, Chief Executive Officer of
Oversee.net, said, "The domain industry is undergoing significant
change. While it is consolidating on some fronts, there is escalating
interest in the acquisition of domain names and direct navigation
traffic. An estimated 10-20% of paid search traffic now comes through
direct navigation. This provides a great opportunity for Oversee.net,
which has a rich history in this space." Ng continued,
"Because we are active in the domain name monetization business, we can
better evaluate and find opportunities among domainers who want to
achieve immediate liquidity. This deal was executed in record time.
Unlike financial players, our technology gives us a distinct advantage
in evaluating portfolios. We have the knowledge and resources to close
an acquisition in a matter of days." Oversee.net is very
active in online media and is a leader in both online advertising and
lead generation. Through its agency, Revenue.net, it serves
advertisers, publishers and agencies with over 5 billion impressions
per month. Its lead generation businesses serve both the financial
services and secondary education communities. About Oversee.net
