Domain Name Wire Acquires DNW.com Domain Name

Austin, TX - November 4, 2008 - Domain Name Wire, a leading news source for the domain name industry, has acquired the three character domain name DNW.com.

By acquiring the short, easy-to-remember domain name and acronym for the site, Domain Name Wire will now be even easier to access by web users: they can now type-in DNW.com rather than the longer DomainNameWire.com.

"I'm excited about the acquisition of this premium domain name," said Domain Name Wire editor Andrew Allemann. "Domain Name Wire readers are savvy about domain names, and acquiring this three letter domain name reiterates that we understand the value of good domain names." Domain Name Wire is often referred to as "DNW" by the domain industry.

Readers do not need to change any bookmarks or RSS feeds, as the main site will still be hosted at www.DomainNameWire.com.

Domain Name Wire, founded in 2005, attracts hundreds of thousands of page views each month from various segments of the domain name industry: domain registrars, domain lawyers, domain name investors, corporate domain name managers, domain registries, and policy organizations. It provides daily news and insight to the domain industry and is one of the most respected — and longest running — news sources for the industry.

Domain name industry veteran Andrew Allemann created the news site because of a lack of daily news and information about the domain name industry back in 2005.

"Domain Name Wire has always been committed to bringing relevant and accurate information to the domain name community," continued Allemann. "Our readership has grown over the past several years, and acquiring this domain name shows our commitment to our readers."
