Premium .travel domain names to be available at Domainfest Global Live Auction
For the first time since the introduction of the .travel top-level domain, premium .travel names will be made available for sale at auction. The keyword-centric premium domains include City.travel, Europe.travel, Fly.travel, Free.travel, Information.travel, Kids.travel, Money.travel, Luggage.travel, Pictures.travel, TripPlanner.travel and HotDeals.travel.

The names will be auctioned at Moniker’s live and extended online auctions at DOMAINfest Global on January 29, 2009. DOMAINfest, the domain name industry’s
premier conference, will be held January 28-30 at the Renaissance Hollywood hotel in Hollywood, Calif.

The domain name market has established the premium value of short, generic domain names in a variety of top-level domains. Since .travel was launched in 2005, every major travel brand worldwide has adopted .travel names, and destination travel providers - including Argentina, Egypt, Utah, Cancun and Sri Lanka - are marketing themselves exclusively through their .travel names.

Those wishing to bid on .travel domains may do so either in person or in real-time online using exclusive software from SnapNames LIVETM. Vicky Karantzavelou - Friday, January 23, 2009
