"This was the first time that we brought a domain name auction to Affiliate Summit and were pleased that we were able to inform a new group of buyers about the benefits of domains and online assets for their businesses," said Monte Cahn, co-founder and CEO of Moniker.com. "Like other verticals, we expect the demand for domains within the affiliate market to grow considerably in the near term."
"We are delighted to see the Affiliate Summit savvy entrepreneurs pick up on some great domain names. Affiliate marketers know the value of virtual real-estate and are looking forward to attending future auctions at our upcoming events," said Missy Ward, Affiliate Summit Co-Founder.
The Moniker domain name auction at the Affiliate Summit East allowed online affiliate marketers to understand the tools, such as domain names, that will allow their business to prosper in the future.
"From direct navigation via generic domain names to increasing your site page rank, domain names provide savvy online marketers with a way to purchase the direct source of traffic," Cahn noted. "Individuals who purchased domains at this auction have established a foundation for future web growth online."
