DirectNic
Chief Operations
Officer Rob Alfonso
said, “For years,
Fabulous and Directnic
have been two leading
domain registrars each
with their own market
focus, one serving
businesses and the
other serving domain
investors. This
acquisition provides a
very complementary fit
for each business. The
acquisition keeps
Fabulous customers
well valued, well
served and creates
tremendous
opportunities for each
business through
efficiency and
scale.”
One
of the most
interesting aspects of
this deal is that it
re-unites DirectNic's
current Director of
Business Development,
Mike Robertson,
with the company he
started his domain
industry career with.
Robertson said, "I
look forward to being
part of the
Fabulous.com team
again. I dedicated
close to 9 years
growing the Fabulous
brand, a brand I still
love and am excited to
develop further. We
have some great things
planned for the
future. Most of all we
are committed to
providing our clients
with the best service
and tools, to ensure
the success of their
domain name
business.”
Robertson, a native
Australian, has been
based at DirectNic's Tampa,
Florida office and
will continue to work
from there.
While
DirectNic is most
widely known for their
consumer registrar
operation they provide
other Internet
services as well,
including AdsSquared
(a provider of domain
parking and
monetization services)
and Dotology
(an ICANN accredited
registrar that
provides reasonably
priced personalized
service for small
businesses and other
organizations).
