Jason
Miner
will run BuyDomains.com
for EIGI |
The
rapidly growing Endurance
International Group, who
earlier this year acquired
Directi for $110
million, is a leading
provider of hosting, domain
and online business services
offered through a family of
well-known brands that
includes Bluehost, HostGator,
iPage, Domain.com,
A Small Orange and ResellerClub.
EIGI said it supports over
3.8 million subscribers
and is able to tailor
solutions for small businesses
at every stage and level of
sophistication. Endurance is
headquartered in Burlington,
Massachusetts, not far from
BuyDomains's location in
Waltham, Massachusetts.
By
selling BuyDomains, NameMedia
has now effectively exited the
domain business, having sold
their other major aftermarket
platform, Afternic, to Go
Daddy in September of last
year. That doesn't mean we
have seen the last of some of
NameMedia's well-known management
team members though. According
to Domain
Name Wire, Chief
Operating Officer Jason
Miner will stay on to run
BuyDomains for Endurance. |
