Press Release Summary = A domain brokerage that doesn't mind being different says free, and really means it.
Press Release Body = In a world where the word \"free\" always seems to have a catch, www.DotComerica.com is a domain listing service that really means it. When they say \"free domain listing\", they mean you can list your domain name for sale (for free), and when you sell a domain name, you don't have to pay a commission either. It is refreshing when "free" means it doesn't cost anything.
Such a policy makes www.DotComerica.com very different from other brokerages, especially since this is a full-blown service that has one of the best domain management systems in the industry, an offer/counter offer exchange that is anonymous and private, and an advanced domain search - among just some of its features and promotional services.
The main powerhouse behind the site is an inventive programmer named Chris. He explains the reasoning behind developing the site: \"We felt it was time for some changes and improvements in how people buy and sell domains. We wanted to create the perfect domain brokerage."
In fact, there is no other place that offers so much with so little expected from domain buyer or seller. The lifetime membership and free listing make it an attractive place to list a domain, and their flexible search and no commission makes it a great place to buy a domain name.
Chris says DotComerica.com is a site that is "by the domainer and for the domainer". It is that sense of teamwork that domain buyers and sellers from around the world are beginning to recognize. It has resulted in DotComerica.com's domain name listing growing from 400 to over 16,000 domain names since the site emerged in August of 2006.
"We have received compliments from site visitors who aren't even domain buyers or sellers," says Chris. "That has really been a wonderful motivation to keep the site's performance high and the service as economical as possible."
The gratuitous nature of the site has drawn some criticism from representatives of their larger competitors, who have pointed out the obvious drawbacks (for the brokerage) of a free service. That is, listing domains for free won't make the brokerage rich.
Chris is undaunted. "Coming from a point of view of a domain buyer and seller gives DotComerica.com a definite empathy to the needs of our members. We relate to them more than the brokerage point of view of making money off lister's domains. We want it to stay that way."
One might wonder how such a domain brokerage stays afloat. They do have promotional services like appraisals, home page listings, and something they call "Featured Sellers" which gives special exposure to entire portfolios of single members.
But what keeps administrative costs low is the flexibility and ease-of-use of the entire site. Site visitors can navigate easily through the site, and members have a complete "do-it-yourself" editing ability of their domains and can even upload large portfolios of domains from a file, to be reflected almost instantly on the website.
Duplicates and errors are caught. Offers and counter offers flow smoothly between buyer and seller with no interference. Verification and documentation are provided at virtually every turn.
"Eliminating the bugs allows us to focus on building a positive working relationship with our members. We really are committed to providing excellence, efficiency, and foolproof functionality. If we do it right the first time, it saves everyone a lot of frustration," says Chris.
DotComerica.com is a domain listing website to watch. They have another brokerage for virtual reality domains at www.VRtechDomains.com with plans for other industry-specific domain brokerages. The VR site actually came out just before DotComerica and is based on the idea that such sites will help find specific domains in a more refined multi-category setting, with DotComerica.com at the hub.
Chris and his colleagues are an inventive bunch who want to make waves in the domain industry. With such a high standard of excellence and an equal commitment to serving the needs of domain buyers and sellers, those who want to buy domains or sell a domain name will do well to use DotComerica,com as a resource for their domain needs.
