Tucows Announces Enhancements to Its Domain Parking Programs
Over $1 million in 'free money' to be shared with resellers in 2008
TORONTO, Nov. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Tucows Inc. (AMEX:TCX, TSX:TC), a leading provider of Internet services to web hosting companies and ISPs worldwide, today officially launched its domain parking programs that will share over $1 million in revenues with Tucows resellers over the next 12 months. The two programs, Parked Pages Program and Expired Domains Program, offer additional sources of revenue to resellers, including a slice of the growing domain name re-sale market through a share of Tucows Premium Domains service sales revenues.
Tucows domain parking programs generate additional revenues through the automatic serving of targeted pay-per-click (PPC) advertising. In the case of the Parked Pages Program, ads are displayed on unused domain names, while the Expired Domains Program serves advertising on domain names that have expired. Under the terms of these programs, Tucows offers a 50-50 split of all net advertising revenue with the reseller.
Tucows now offers its resellers a share of revenues from the sale of domain names in the domain name re-sale market. When a domain name expires, Tucows may choose to purchase that name and place it in the Expired Names Program. If, at a later date, Tucows sells the domain through its Premium Domains service, the company shares 10% of net revenue with the original reseller.
'We'll be putting over $1 million into the pockets of our resellers over the next 12 months,' said Adam Eisner, Product Manager, Domains, Tucows Inc. 'These domain parking programs offer tangible proof of the value Tucows places on the relationships that we've built with our resellers, and they provide us with a way to reward our customers for their continued loyalty to Tucows.'
The re-launch of the Parked Pages and Expired Domains programs further adds to the total domains package the company provides. In addition to Parked Pages and Expired Domains, Tucows includes free WHOIS privacy and managed DNS with every domain name sold. Tucows provides domain name resellers with enhanced domain name search and selling tools including - name suggestion and the ability to sell quality names from the domain name portfolios of AfternicDLS and Domain Distribution Network and the Tucows domain portfolio, through the Premium Domains service.
