"2023
was a phenomenal year for us, as we took
major strides towards our goal of a more seamless,
integrated investor experience," James noted.
"One area we're particularly proud of is the overhaul
of our GoDaddy Auctions platform. This
was a labor of love that started in 2021 and has
thrived through this year with a series of key
releases. We've updated the look, made searching
and filtering a breeze, and enhanced access
to domain auctions. Plus, we've added more data
points and inventory, and improved the backend
infrastructure."

"GoDaddy
Auctions is about to wave goodbye to its Beta
phase - but that doesn't mean we're slowing
down. We're planning further enhancements to
keep improving the investor experience. To mark
the end of the Beta phase, we're infusing auctions
with some top-notch premium domains from our
NameFind portfolio with no-reserve prices
and low starting bids. We're also using this
opportunity to experiment with ways to drive even
more buyers for your domains for sale. The auctions
began December 6th with names like Cliche.com,
VisitVegas.com
and Sitcom.com
on the block and new premium names added daily. You
can filter for these names within Auctions or head
over to NameFind.com
to be redirected."
James
added, "This is both a celebration of
how far we've come and a stepping stone towards an
even brighter future. Here's to making your
business run smoother and achieving even more
together!"
James
also provided us with a convenient list of key
points about the auctions that will help you navigate
through them and make the most of this buying opportunity. |
