July 8, 2008- James Wester announces the liquidation of 100 .au domains, including web pages, to form the company's first .au market case study

Whilst we are awaiting a decision from SnapNames.com and our awesome account rep Chris Leggatt at Moniker in regard to actually opening up our portfolio to the auction arena for TRAFFIC New York, I decided that I would thumb through our online property so to speak and discovered something amazing.

Going through our portfolio of well over 2,500 domain names, I earmarked 100 of our domains that have already been proven as VALUABLE ONLINE PROPERTY as per the reports of Mr. Ron Jackson of DNJournal.com in the archives of past top 100 domain sales from the years of 2006, 2007 and 2008 YTD.

I'm proud to announce that each of these 100 case study domains will be developed with a mini page in which to test the market of the .au extension in the market place. I will be publishing the pages live on the website here in the coming days.

James Wester
