READING, England, February 11 /PRNewswire/ --

- Glasgow.com, Breaks.com and Tourism.co.uk to Go Under the Hammer

Sedo, the leading online marketplace for the buying and selling of domain
names, today announced it is to host an online auction of travel related
Internet domain names.

The Sedo auction, which is themed "Around the World in Seven Days" will
feature sought after names including Arabia.com, Breaks.com, Glasgow.com and
Tourism.co.uk. The auction will run from 2:00 pm EST (8 pm CET) on February
13th to approximately 2:00 pm EST (8 pm CET) on February 20th. The full list
of names can be viewed by visiting http://www.sedo.co.uk.

As travel related Internet domain names continue to rise in value, the
auction is expected to attract the attention from companies across the
travel, leisure and hospitality sector as well as Internet domain investors.
Last week, cruises.co.uk smashed the highest reported value paid for a co.uk
Internet domain name, selling for GBP560,000.

Nora Nanayakkara, director, business development and sales, Sedo UK,
commented: "The interest in geographic and travel domains is growing
significantly in the UK. With the online travel market becoming increasingly
competitive, companies can use generic Internet domain names to develop new
online revenue streams and expand their online presence. It also enables them
to boost their search engine rankings and reduce spend on advertising. We
expect the auction to attract global interest especially for the co.uk top
level domains."

Sedo's trusted online marketplace now lists over 10.5 million Internet
domain names. It holds regular auctions for buyers and sellers and provides
services ranging from domain buying, selling and monetisation to brokerage
services and Internet domain appraisals. These can all be found through
http://www.sedo.co.uk.
