Domain Name Bidding Starts At $7,500

 
RedX.com Domain Name Is Up for Sale on AFTERNIC.com

RedX.com is a simple, short, powerful, brandable, and memorable domain name for a wide range of applications. This offering also includes domain name RedX.info

Austin, TX (PRWEB) May 11, 2006 - The four letter domain name RedX.com, is now for sale on AFTERNIC.com.

The opening bid is listed at $7,500 usd, for what may soon start a seven day auction. The reserve price is set at a level close to the first few bids, so the highest bidder is sure to soon get the domain at a secure and open market environment.

RedX.com is not identifiable with any specific industry, so it can be associated with an industry that has not yet developed a strong presence on the Internet. This neutrality allows the domain to be applied and branded as you wish, with little residual traffic from intuitive portal searches or browser type-ins.

“On the Internet a proper name is more important for brand building than a generic or common name. For example, the leading auction site on the net is not Auction.com, it is eBay.com”, said Federico Iglesias, Global Brands consultant who originally registered the domain in 1999 to launch Project RedX in Mexico. “RedX dot COM is available now, and it is a great domain name: simple, short and easy to spell. The term is also easy to remember as a meaningful two-word phrase in the English language and many other languages like Spanish where “red” means “network”.

This offering also includes domain name RedX.info. Both domain names help achieve valuable higher positioning in search engine results, and are ideal for a business looking to develop a strong brand on the Internet.

It can be a big challenge to secure a distinctive and marketable
domain name in today's saturated internet market. I agree that a
short and proper name like redx.com makes it memorable.

The key issue on internet marketing is not advertising, big
advertising budgets. The key issue here is branding: user experience
associated with content, design, accessibility, navigability,
customer service, technical performance, etc.

The popular opinion is that finding a good domain name is hard, but with creative word or letter combinations there are still a LOT of good options in my opinion.

Then add in the fact that many thousands of previously registered domains expire and are available every day and you have more and more choices indeed.

And if you are brave enough to take on a TLD that is not a .com there are more choices than ever. Anyone that would like some assistance finding a name can contact me. Yes, branding is important, but with only a small budget your brand is going to struggle to get anywhere unless you use a lot of creative marketing.

Sure, redx.com is short, but I would not call it a "proper name". It reminds me of "Rid-x", which could taint any attempt at branding. It also reminds me of what you see in a web browser when a link to an image is broken... a red x.

It's not the domain that's all that bad, just the price. I think in some cases, a short domain name does not warrant the hefty price tag.
