Sedo's announcement said "The Domain Value Indicators show potential buyers the value of a domain by displaying statistics and facts that help them make an informed decision about their purchase. The feature also helps sellers set domain prices, by placing the most important determinants of domain value at their fingertips. The new feature also includes a comparison of the domain’s value with that of other names listed at Sedo, an addition that helps put this value into context for both sellers and buyers."

Sedo added that the Domain Value Indicators feature will act as a 

complement to Sedo’s Price Suggestion and Appraisal offerings. Those services are based on Sedo’s historical transaction data, and make use of both automated pricing tools and the expertise of their international brokerage team to help assess domain name values.  

Two other well-known companies in the domain aftermarket space - Key Drive S.A.'s Moniker and SnapNames units - have announced new partnerships with two Chinese companies that will give them much more exposure to buyers in China. One of those is NameRich.cn, a leading Chinese domain name aftermarket service provider, and the other is Dnbiz, a leading Chinese domain name buying and selling marketplace. 

Through Dnbiz and its Yumi.com distribution network, they provide access to more than five million domains to tens of thousands of Chinese clients every day. The company said the partnership was formed in response to the increasing domain name demand by businesses and domain investors in the region. Those deals also come on the heels of partnerships that aftermarket giants Sedo and the AfternicDLS announced with other Chinese companies last week.
