SnapNames And NameJet Join Forces For Domain Name Auction

03:18:29 - 28 October 2015

In an unprecedented move from two of the largest domain name aftermarket companies, NameJet and SnapNames are teaming up for the auction of the rare and valuable domain name, LTD.com.

Kirkland, WA. USA (PRWEB) - LTD.com, which is in the exceedingly valuable 3-character format, went live for auction on NameJet’s award-winning domain name auction platform at 3:00pm ET on Tuesday, October 27. The reserve for the domain name is in the mid 5 figures, and is anticipated to be met quickly.

Jonathan Tenenbaum, General Manager of NameJet, explains the decision to run a co-branded domain name auction with SnapNames: “We feel that combining the efforts of both of our teams and opening this domain name up to the public together would help us reach a huge audience of buyers.”

This is the first time that these two companies have worked together on an auction of a premium domain name, and will likely not be the last. “This is the beginning of a partnership we hope grows even more in the future,” explains Michael White, Vice President of Operations for SnapNames. The two companies are already in talks to continue running co-promoted auctions throughout the rest of 2015 and into 2016.

LTD.com seemed like the perfect name for the companies to market together, as its value is estimated to be over $350,000 and falls into the 3-character category of names that are so coveted by domain buyers. The name itself conveys value and exclusivity, and the winner of this name will gain entry into the exclusive club of 3-character domain name owners.

The auction will run until Wednesday, December 2 at approximately 3pm ET. Interested buyers who currently do not have an account with NameJet will be required to create one in order to place a bid. You can find the domain auction here, or through promotional links on the SnapNames.com and NameJet.com home pages.
