POMPANO BEACH, Fla., Aug. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- More than $800,000 in premium, adult domain names were sold during recent Live and Silent Auctions hosted by Moniker, the first and only provider of Domain Asset Management(TM) services. The auctions, which saw more than 90 domains change hands, took place during Internext Expo, the world's largest business-to-business online and digital media adult conference.
 
The three-hour live event took place on August 4 during Internext and featured some of the industry's most valued domains. A simultaneous online Silent Auction was available to conference attendees and previous Moniker auction bidders. The Silent Auction concluded on August 9.

"Internext Expo is an excellent venue to bring our premium domain auctions because individuals in the room understand the value of a marketable domain and what it can do to enhance their business," said Monte Cahn, co-founder and CEO of Moniker.com. "As the adult online business continues to grow, we anticipate the demand for fresh domains and are pleased to deliver some of the industry's most requested names at this event."

Moniker continues to bring domain auctions to a variety of online business verticals so those at the forefront of web development see how valuable their domain assets are.

In January 2007, Moniker hosted its inaugural domain name auction at Internex Expo in Las Vegas. Moniker pioneered the domain name auction, hosting over 10 Live and Silent auctions since 2004 selling nearly $40 million worth of domains at past events.

"We're pleased with the results of this auction. By Internext and Moniker bringing the most valuable domains to our exclusive adult auctions, we continue to grow the adult domain business and provide tremendous value to our attendees. We look forward to future auctions with Moniker at Internext," said Farley Cahen, Director of Licensing for AVN Media Network.

Sale of AdultWebDesigner.com Benefits the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP)

Moniker and Internext Expo together auctioned AdultWebDesigner.com with the auction proceeds, $2,600, going directly to the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP). With these funds, the ASACP will continue its mission to combat the exploitation of children online with the help of the adult online community.

"Raising funds and awareness can be the most challenging things any organization must do -- Moniker raised $2,600 for ASACP and also helped to put the work of ASACP in the spotlight. We couldn't be happier about Moniker's support and that of Frank Koretsky, founder of the Koretsky Family Foundation, who bought the domain," said Joan Irvine, Executive Director for the ASACP.
