After Successful 2010 Debut in Prague DOMAINfest Europe Will Return With June Show in Barcelona, Spain

The 2011 domain conference schedule continues to shape up with Oversee.net confirming the dates and location for DOMAINfest Europe today. The show will be held in Barcelona, Spain June 7-9, 2011 at the Pullman Barcelona Skipper Hotel. Sun worshipers will be happy

to know that the hotel is just 50 meters from the beach. Discounted rooms can be booked by downloading a special hotel reservation form here.

This will be the 2nd annual DOMAINfest Europe conference. The show, sponsored by Oversee's domain monetization unit, DomainSponsor, debuted last year with a successful outing in Prague that attracted over 200 attendees from two dozen different countries.

Online registration for DOMAINfest Europe will open on Friday, April 1, 2011. The discounted early bird registration rate will be $695 through April 30th with the price increasing to $795 May 1. Show organizers said the event will offer an an opportunity for publishers with direct navigation traffic, plus online marketers and domain-related service providers, to meet and discuss ways to analyze traffic, improve landing page designs and maximize revenue. Preliminary information on the conference agenda, networking activities, and sponsorship opportunities are available at http://domainfest.com

The show will also include a MonikerŪ Premium Domain that will be held at the Pullman Barcelona Skipper hotel on Wednesday, June 8, 2011 beginning at 4:00 pm Central European time (which is 10am U.S. EDT and 7am U.S. PDT). Bidders can participate online as well as in person. There will also be an extended online auction that will run until June 22 at 9pm CET. You can find details on both the live and extended auctions, including how to bid remotely, here. Sellers are encouraged to submit premium names for the auction now. Deadline for submission is April 29, 2011.

In a related note, DomainSponsor is reporting that its European division just logged its fifth consecutive quarter of revenue growth. The company said revenues in Q1-2011 saw a double digit increase over Q4-2010. 

The company credits the upward momentum to ongoing investment in new optimization technology, which they say has yielded stronger financial performance for clients and better direct navigation results for end-users.  DomainSponsor also reported it also has added sales and support staff in its European headquarters office in Frankfurt, Germany.
