.tv My First two letter .TV - My First Developed .TV & .TV Auctions *Oh My

To my Dear NamePro Friends,

Rescently I held an auction on this site to test out the .tv market for auctions. I felt very positive with the success as well as with the success of DomainAcrobats auction (by the way, thanks for your advice DA)

I also believe there is room live auction format like Equity and Smash ran about a month ago, but perhaps it was a bit too early and perhaps it needed more reach. In anycase the live format IMO will be a huge as the .tv extension continues to grow.

I think there is room now for an auction website geared just for the .tv extension. As the aftermarket continues to grow more and more companies will be looking for the perfect .tv name and I felt there was needed a destination website for that purpose.

So I have decided to launch one.

Originally I was going to call it DomainNameAuction.tv, but felt it was a little too long and I always felt if you were going to do something, you should do it right. So I decided to purchase my first two letter .tv...

DA.TV (www.da.tv)

DA.TV I hope will become the destination site for Corporate buyers looking for the perfect .tv for their business.

I have worked to make this site as easy as possible to register and manage your .tv auctions. It is full of great features including automatic relist up to 15 times. So you can run an auction for a week and if it doesn't sell it will automatically relist up to 15 times.

You can also accept many payment systems for automatic payment including paypal.

The cost? 100% Free.

You can list as many names as you want for FREE. I don't charge a listing fee or a percentage of your sale.

So how do I make money? Well I do want to keep this site running and I plan on doing a lot of marketing so right now there is a $2.00 fee for home page featured auction and $1.00 for category featured, bold listing, highlight listing etc..

Also it has google adwords to help support the site.

Eventually down the road I may charge a percentage fee of sales like SEDO, but I don't have plans for that for at least 6 months to a year.

What do I need from you?

Great question. The .tv members here on namepros are the bloodline of the .tv industry. I need your valuable feedback. How can I make this site better? What would you like to see? Was it easy to register? Was it easy to list a name for Auction? Anything you can do to help make this site better for all of us I would greatly appreciate it.

Sorry for a bit of a long post, let me know what you think!

i just received my confirmation email and followed the link.
After that i got the following message:
"Error: Account activation is not possible using this feature or the activation details you have submitted are invalid."

ps: my username is the same as here, maybe special characters are not compatible?

Very nice - and all in 9 days from your reg date. Well done! I plan on signing up and giving it a whirl in the next day or so. BTW - creative use of LL.tv. I saw this one available and kept thinking how it would make a good legal site or courtroom action for following District Attorneys. But I certainly like your angle and the renewable auction system. All the best, CarryOn

Right time to launch an auction site and take the lead, the tv market is bubbling and this is just the beginning, I just hope that the tons of names which will be listed will be at the quality level of your site.
Congrats Richard.
