Sedo Announces November Numeric Domains Auction

Leading Online Domain Marketplace to Offer Popular Numeric Domains, Including 88.com, 40.com and 13.net

November 5, 2008; 09:16 AM

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sedo, the leading online marketplace for buying and selling domain names, today announced that it will host a numeric-themed domain auction featuring some of the most popular and universal numbers. These include two-digit domains like 88.com, 40.com, 13.net, 70.com, and less generic domains such as the prestigious Manhattan zip code, 10029.com. The auction begins on November 27^th at 1:00 p.m. EST and ends on December 4^th at approximately 1:00 p.m. EST.

“Numbers are the language of science and carry a lot of secondary meanings in cultures around the world —certain pairs are often associated with luck and prosperity for example,” said Jeremiah Johnston, chief operating officer and general counsel, Sedo. “These factors make short, two-digit domain names very valuable in any market.”

Sedo is still accepting domains for this auction event. For more information on seller criteria for Sedo’s Numeric Auction, owners of generic numeric domains can contact Sedo Broker Matthew Rosebrook at [email protected] or (617-499-7238).
