Broker Says Investors Snap Up Internet Properties

 

Real Estate Investing Goes Digital as Investors Snap Up Internet Properties

Savvy Investors are latching on to the rebirth of the Internet and riding the wave of domain name sales and search marketing and advertising all the way to the bank.

(PRWEB) August 24, 2006 -- Internet Real Estate, aka domain names, are becoming increasingly more valuable and harder to find, says Scott Alliy, President of DomainsAvailableNow.com, a division of Houston-based Allied Internet Solutions Inc.

Television and radio and of course Internet advertising is revealing that more and more businesses are using the power of memorable and meaningful domain names to brand their services and products and business name into consumers' minds.

What most businesses don't realize, says Scott, is that having multiple domain names is like having more doorways into your brick and mortar business. And Scott adds at just $6 to $10 for annual registration, buying multiple meaningful domain names and pointing them to a website could be the best investment a person will make in his or her business.

The plain truth, says Scott, is that memorable and meaningful domain names are essential to Internet business success.

Scott knows the power of a good domain name for Internet startups as well. In 2002, Scott acquired the name FindaSeminar.com and built it into the world's largest training search engine that currently produces over $3 million in training seminar registrations annually.

He warns business owners to consider buying now since he says prices on available domain names will continue to increase as more business owners come to understand the power and return on investment that good domain names bring.

Scott's company Allied Internet Solutions Inc. owns over 500 domain names like OwnTheHome.com, AutoLoanByWeb.com, PriceQuotesDirect.com, WinePriceGuide.com, MyTire.com, HybridConvertible.com and many others that can be seen in their domain name search engine DomainsAvailableNow.com.

Vietnam Top Level Domain Cost Cut, But Still Expensive

 

.VN, Vietnam's Top Level Domain, Open to the World

On Tuesday 15th August Vietnam's Top Level Domain .VN Landrush starts. All companies in the world are free to register .VN domain names without restrictions.

(PRWEB) August 14, 2006 -- For years the Vietnam registry only offered second level domains under “com.vn, org.vn, …”, but now on Tuesday the 15th August the top level domain .VN domain opens to the world. The only restriction imposed by the registry is that only companies can register .VN names.

The ccTLD will embrace a significant success in a world where domains become strategic investment for brands and "domainers". Vietnam has a population of 84Mio and an for now an internet penetration of 15%. The population size can be compared to the population of Germany.

VN domains are now more accessible. In the past ".com.vn" domain name registrations exceeded 200.-USD. Now for the .VN Landrush, AsiaDNS (the Asian portal of EuroDNS) offers .VN registration for an annual price of 48.-Euro with an on-time setup fee of 38.-Euro. Source: http://www.asiadns.com

The loss of restriction as well as the new competitive price should drag a lot of attention to this newly available ccTLD of a large and promising country.

VNNIC is the registry for Vietnam that manages the entire .VN zone. Link: http://www.vnnic.net

AsiaDNS / EuroDNS is a leading domain name registrar offering domain name registration services and portfolio management for European an Asian ccTLDs.
