According to a press release we received today, Sedo.com is adding “Make Offer” domain names to its MLS system with Godaddy.com
“Go Daddy joined the SedoMLS network in January 2012, offering all Buy Now names from Sedo’s inventory of more than 16 million premium domains to millions of new buyers. ”
“The expanded partnership adds Make Offer names to this distribution channel, which means that end users worldwide can now place bids on premium domains listed at Sedo, and negotiate a purchase price via their Go Daddy account.
“Go Daddy registers, transfers or renews more than one domain name every second of every day – so you can imagine how many availability searches take place,” said Go Daddy Director of Domain Name Aftermarkets Paul Nicks. “Our customers are always looking for just the right domain name, which makes seamless access to the aftermarket extremely important. By expanding our partnership with Sedo and adding even more domain names to Go Daddy’s search results, we are helping our customers find and secure the best possible name.”
Tobias Flaitz, Sedo’s CEO, said: “We’re excited to be able to connect even more sellers and buyers across the world by expanding our partnership with the industry’s leading registrar. Providing Go Daddy end users with the option to purchase Buy Now as well as Make Offer names is another way we are helping domain owners to reach more potential buyers, and to make more sales.”
Great, we can look forward to more lowball offers now!
Seriously though, this is a good move and should increase domain sales activity.
