Above.com
Integrates Domain Monetization, Registration
& Sales in a New Domain Investor Platform
|
|
Above.com
has
undergone a major makeover. The
well-known domain services company based in Australia launched
a new Domain Investor Platform today that
combines a
new Domain Name Marketplace, Domain
Registrar and Escrow service with
their
|
|
|
existing
Domain Parking Manager service.
|
|
With
those changes Above.com customers can
now manage and register domain names and
buy or sell domains through a single
interface with access to a much
higher level of detail |

(independent,
third-party traffic and revenue statistics with
demographics and a daily breakdown covering up
to six months)
to base buying decisions on.
The
new domain market place allows instant
domain transfers to buyers and features
integrated domain escrow service for all sale
transactions, while the new registrar interface
was designed specifically with domainers in
mind.
Above.com
Founder and CEO Ren Warmuz said, “For
the first time, domain investors can make
purchase decisions based on verified,
historically accurate domain statistics
independent of the monetization service used. 18
months in the making, our new platform
simplifies 'everything' with an integrated
registrar, domain parking manager, escrow and
aftermarket." Warmuz said a key feature of
the new sales platform ensures that all revenue
and traffic statistics are imported directly
from third-party monetization services
assuring buyers that all reported statistics are
factual. |

Director of Domain Services Victor
Pitts added, "“Our goal is to
provide domain investors with cutting
edge technology and a better choice.
Domain investment becomes smarter and
easier with the new Above.com
platform." Pitts noted that the
company's system makes it easy to test
and compare traffic and revenue
from different domain parking services
on a single dashboard so the
investor can see the total revenue that
domain or portfolio earns. "This
is especially helpful when deciding
which domains to keep, delete, develop,
or sell as domains are expiring,"
Pitts said. Regarding
the new auction marketplace,
Pitts said, "It is designed to make
domain submission to auctions easy,
while still giving the domain investor
full control over the particulars of
the auction. Investors can even
opt to disclose the full monetization
history of any domain submitted to the
marketplace making traffic, earnings,
and geographic distribution of traffic
immediately available to the buyer." |

Lauderdale Beach to personally demonstrate

domain investors attending might have.
