The benefit of having Sedo’s deep expertise in the aftermarket enables us to deliver significant cost savings to our customers as they expand their domain portfolios.””””
We often talk about non-domainers needing a domain consultant type company who has knowledge and an understanding of domaning issues.
This maybe the first of many of these type of arrangements coming in over the next months and years.
