New Association Looks Out for Canadian Domain Name Owners

October 2, 2008 – Niagara Falls, Ontario

At long last a new association promising to address the concerns of Canadian domain owners is being launched.

In order to represent the interests of Canadian domain name owners, the Domain Owners Association of Canada (DOAC) aims to protect and increase the value of its members’ domain names.

“It’s high time Canadian domain owners get their voices heard,” says Peter Maxymych, President of Emall.ca and founder of the Domain Owners Association of Canada. “Domain owners in Canada have often felt like they are working alone. This does not have to be the case. With this association we can work together to promote our interests in domaining.”

The Domain Owners Association of Canada will kick off with a formation meeting at the inaugural Domain Convergence conference in Niagara Falls, Ontario on October 7, 2008.

“We are looking forward to helping launch the ground-breaking association for domain owners,” says Frank Michlick, Chairman of the Domain Convergence conference. “Canadian domain name owners have contributed immensely to the domain name industry and it is comforting to know an organization will have our backs.”

More information about the Domain Owners Association of Canada will be released on www.doac.ca once the association is officially launched. In the meantime, please contact Zak Muscovitch, the association’s solicitor, at the coordinates below for details.

Our aim is to put together a great conference for the Canadian and international domainer community, filled with valuable sessions and opportunities to network. The live auction is the icing on the cake

Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada (PRWEB) September 30, 2008 — Domain Convergence, a domain-industry conference and educational meeting to be held in Niagara Falls, Ontario from October 6-8, 2008, will feature a live premium domain name auction. The auction is operated by Fusu, the domain aftermarket specialist.

Fusu’s live auction platform will debut on October 8th, 2008 at 3:00pm EDT. The auction is scheduled for 1 hour live at the conference and will extend to a seven day Internet auction for domains that were not sold during the live auction. Fusu will charge a 15% fee to the seller, plus 1% upfront of the reserve price as a listing fee to encourage lower reserves. Fusu’s exclusivity period for the domain sale is 30 days.

“Our aim is to put together a great conference for the Canadian and international domainer community, filled with valuable sessions and opportunities to network. The live auction is the icing on the cake,” said Frank Michlick, chairman of DomainConvergence.

Domain Convergence is aiming for around 30 to 40 hand-picked, well-priced domains, set at a fair and reasonable price. The audience will consist of a select group of domainers and Internet marketing professionals, but bidding will also be available online.

Domain name owners are requested to submit their domains via email to auction@domainconvergence.com until October 4th, 2008 and include their reserve price as well as their postal address and phone number.
