MOBILE DOMAIN WORTH $135 000
11 September 2009
Infomeda the top bidder for Casino.mobi
Monicker, a domain broker and subsidiary of Oversee.net
has revealed that the desirable domain Casino.mobi has
been purchased by Infomeda Limited for $135 000.
Moniker founder Monte Cahn facilitated the transaction,
which represents one of the highest prices paid to date
for a .mobi name; other premium .mobi sales include
Fun.mobi ($100 000 in 2007), RealEstate.mobi ($85 000 in
2007) and Tickets.mobi ($60 000 in 2008).
Infomeda plans to use the name as an online portal, with
location-based information for bricks-and-mortar casino
locations, reviews of mobile casinos as well as fun
money casino-style games and gaming tools. The site has
launched a beta version, and an official release is
expected later this month.
This is a very strong
sale for both parties in this transaction, said Cahn.
Gaming enthusiasts are very interested in online
applications, and continually growing interest in the
mobile Web indicates that the Casino.mobi site will
perform well when it launches.
Trey Harvin, the
chief exec of dotMobi supported Cahn's view, saying:
It’s great to see the value of .mobi names recognized in
dollars. It’s even more meaningful to see the name used
to identify content that takes advantage of mobile
phones and gives game-players a one-of-a-kind experience
that can’t be duplicated on a desktop PC.
