AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--At NamesCon Global 2024, Identity Digital, a leader in connecting the online world with domain names and related technologies, announced the release of more than 20,000 short premium domains. Available for the first time, this includes over a thousand one and two-character .info domains and hundreds of previously-reserved .vote domains - just in time for the 2024 election cycle.
The Early Access Phase (EAP) launch for these premium domains is scheduled for June 12, 2024, with general availability (GA) set to begin on June 19, 2024.
There is a proven market for premium domains with both businesses and consumers, allowing them to boost brand visibility and immediately convey specific expertise, especially relating to any products or services. Businesses and individuals are always searching for ways to stand out in a crowded digital marketplace, and premium domains are an effective and powerful tool for establishing an online presence. Short character premiums can also be extremely lucrative. For example, Top.domains purchased bet.bet for five figures from Identity Digital in April 2023 and resold it within nine months for a record-breaking $600K.
This latest premium release creates a significant opportunity to own esteemed, previously unavailable inventory. Highly valuable .info domain names being released include ai.info, 8.info, us.info, chat.info, com.info, a.info ok.info, i.ski, e.vote, hi.bio, we.lgbt - empowering businesses and individuals to utilize both sides of the dot to better establish their digital identity.
“With thousands of premiums becoming available for the first time ever, this event presents a chance to assert ownership around highly desirable online territory. Two character domains are extremely sought after, and we recognize that releases like these offer unique opportunities for investment.” said Matt Overman, Chief Revenue Officer of Identity Digital. “We are eager to share this release with our partners - and their customers - helping them build a competitive edge in the online marketplace.”
