NameMedia today announced that it has entered into a strategic partnership with TradeMark Express to provide premium domains for purchase through TradeMark Express’s full-service trademarking process.

“TradeMark Express is excited to partner with NameMedia. Obtaining a premium domain name and ensuring that name is legally available go hand in hand; domain name buyers must make sure their proposed domain name is legally clear of existing trademark or common-law names that are similar in sound, appearance or meaning,” said Chris DeMassa, President of Trademark Express.

TradeMark Express visitors will have access to premium domain names listed for sale on BuyDomains.com. Available inventory includes NameMedia’s small business targeted domain portfolio, as well as names listed for sale through its Domain Listing Service, AfternicDLS.

AfternicDLS provides domain sellers with the opportunity to list registered domains for sale though its global distribution network, which also includes BuyDomains.

AfternicDLS has a saleable inventory of more than two million names.

“NameMedia is pleased to further expand the reach of our AfternicDLS sales platform.” said Pete Lamson, senior vice-president and general manager of NameMedia’s domain marketplace. “TradeMark Express’s customers will benefit from having access to the world’s largest domain portfolio, providing them with enhanced options to create and protect their brand while driving traffic to their businesses.”
