Buy Domains UPDATE
Marketing Your Web Site
According to a Jupiter Media Metrix consumer survey, 81 percent of Internet users find the web sites they're looking for through search engines. Understanding how search engines and domains work together can help you maximize your marketing efforts and gain an advantage over your competition. Search engines gauge a web site's relevance by the frequency of the subject word, position, and keywords in the title. Having domains that are identical to frequently used keywords will allow you to achieve a higher ranking in the search engines. Also, the more generic domains that point to your site and that are listed in search engines, the greater the chance that your site will resolve at the top of the search engine.
Premium Domains are domains that are listed for sale in the Buy Domains brokerage or secondary marketplace. These names are not only generic, commonly used subject words, but many already attract default traffic through direct URL type-ins, thus making them instant marketing machines for your web site. Only Buy Domains can provide you with all the marketing tools necessary to maximize your web site's Internet exposure: You can purchase the best, generic domains from our brokerage of over 95,000 Premium Domains, use our 100% free frame and URL forwarding to point multiple domains to your existing site, and have your site listed in the top search engines for as low as $9.99 a month.
To learn more about listing your web site in the TOP search engines, including: Yahoo!, AltaVista, Google, visit our Internet Submissions Info Page.

Keeping All Your Domains Under Control
The Buy Domains Control Panel makes it easy to manage multiple domains, allowing you to manipulate and manage hundreds of domains exactly as you wish. A few of the many great features that can be easily found in the control panel include: changing your nameservers, updating your contact information (Whois record info), accessing the free frame forwarding and advanced renewal services and adding or removing domains to and from your account. Whether you are an individual who has only a few domains or a web developer who manages hundreds, the control panel is designed to save you time. Unlike the other guys, you have total control and can check on the status of or make changes to your domains at any time.

INDUSTRY UPDATE
Monster Parent Pays $800K for Jobs.com Domain Name
Companies are learning the value of a good dot-com and the marketing advantages of having multiple domains to attract more traffic and gain a competitive advantage. Recently, the Parent Company of Monster.com paid $800,000 for the rights to acquire the Jobs.com domain name and trademark from a competitor. The domain name, Jobs.com, is an excellent generic name that will (as described by Monster CEO Jim Treacy) provide a "gateway" to all of the company's interactive properties.

Neulevel Starts .BIZ Resolution Process; .US Domains Are Here
Companies that failed to win their chosen .BIZ domain have 30 days to prove a legal claim over the name, but only if they pre-registered an interest last year via Buy Domains with Neulevel, the company that manages top-level domain. Following claims in the US that the allocation of .BIZ domains was an "illegal lottery", the 39,000 .BIZ domains that received multiple applications have now been allocated using a round robin system. Around 65,000 .BIZ domains have now gone live since it was opened up in November, but half of the initial 2.4 million applications were for just 39,000.

Also, .US domain names are available this week. Non-US businesses are entitled to register a .US domain if they have significantly activity or dealings in the country. Check in with Buy Domains to register your .US domains.

ICANN Wins Confidence Of RIRs & Draft RIR-ICANN Agreement
The Internet Corp for Assigned Names and Numbers is close to forming binding relationships with the three Regional Internet Registries that are responsible for allocating IP addresses to internet service providers.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL
"Your prices and that you allow clients to control and change their accounts with the url and password is great. It makes it very simple. That is exactly what drove me from netsol.com. I also like the fact that you make your 800 number easily accessible and your customer service people speak English well and are friendly--two other reasons why I'll never return to netsol.com."
