			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The popularity of backordering valuable domain  names as they  expire is driving more customers to use HEXONET’s  backorder service.  Eighteen (18) TLD extensions can be backordered now  including .CO, .CA,  .CH, .LI, and .NU.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Vancouver, Canada (PRWEB) August 01, 2011.  HEXONET (<a href="http://www.hexonet.net/">http://www.hexonet.net</a>)   announced today the addition of five more Top-Level-Domain (TLD)   extensions for its popular backorder service. The launch of .CO, .CA,   .CH, .LI, and .NU backordering expands HEXONET’s backorder service to   eighteen (18) different TLDs, making it a leader in terms of TLD   selection anywhere industry-wide. HEXONEThas plans to expand its   backorderable TLDs even more in the months ahead.</p>
<p>HEXONET’s mandate to continually innovate and quickly deliver new   services to the growing domain aftermarket is showcased in the release   of these five new backorder TLDs.  Backordering services for .CO domains   for instance comes on the heels of HEXONET’s recent accreditation with   the .CO registry just a month earlier.  Even development of .CO   backordering was expedited to give HEXONET customers the greatest   opportunity to snap up prized expiring .CO domains that are likely to   drop following .CO’s first anniversary. Many excellent .CO domains are   expected to become available.</p>
<p>According to Robert Birkner, Chief Strategy Officer of HEXONET, “our   strength has always been engineering and innovation, and in the first   half of 2011, we have been in overdrive.”  Robert Birkner continued to   say, “Though we are always working on adding more TLDs to the   backordering service, we have also been innovating new services like   integrated private auctions.  These private auctions make allocating   domains with multiple bidders more equitable, transparent and seamless   for everyone.  The feedback from our customers and resellers has already   been overwhelmingly positive.  Customers love the abundance of TLDs to   backorder from as well as the assurance of private auctions through  our  auction platform Premiumsale.com.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While I was in Asia, my colleague and partner Tony Kim moved our  office.  In the fall of this year we had briefly talked to our landlord  about extending our office lease to June of next year.  Unfortunately a  few days later we received a letter informing us that  he will regrettably not be renewing the lease, as he is expanding his lawyers office  and he needs the space to add additional lawyers/partners.  It was unfortunate as we had felt  extremely comfortable in there.</p>
<p>Tony and I basically had two options.</p>
<p>Option1: We would simply stay in the office until June of 2011 and start looking for an office shortly before our lease expires.</p>
<p>Option 2: Start looking immediately.  Why make it more difficult for our landlord and stay until June 2011?</p>
<p>We chose option 2, as our landlord had been excellent towards us and if there was a way for us to help him expand and grow his business sooner, then the choice was an obvious one.</p>
<p>Both Tony and I had most likely looked at 10 &#8211; 15 possible office space and finally chose one that suited our needs the best and gave HEXONET room to expand.  We now have a work space twice the size of our previous office and represents HEXONET in what we do on a daily basis.</p>
<p>The new address is:</p>
<p><strong>HEXONET Services Inc.</strong></p>
<p>Unit 104 &#8211; 7455 132nd ST</p>
<p>Surrey, B.C., V3W 1J8</p>
<p>Special thanks to Tony for organizing the move while I was in Asia.  Last Thursday all I had to do was drive to the new location and assume work in my new office.  Everything had been taken care of and the office was already up and running.  Picture of the new office will soon follow.  If you are ever in the area, please do stop by our office for a visit.</p>

<p>Currently there are over 150 .ME Domains in auction at SEDO.  Some these domains include gems such as &#8220;text.me&#8221;, &#8220;try.me&#8221;, &#8220;feed.me&#8221; and many more. View the entire list in auction <a title=".ME Auction List" href="http://www.sedo.com/search/searchresult.php4?language=us" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>If you have development resources and a vision there is quite a bit you can do with these domains.</p>
<p>The top five domains currently leading the auction are:</p>
<p>#1. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">game.me </span></strong>&#8211;&gt; currently at 7,600 USD with 17 bids</p>
<p>#2. <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>poker.me</strong></span> &#8211;&gt; currently at 3,300 USD with 20 bids</p>
<p>#3. <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>try.me</strong></span> &#8211;&gt; currently at 2,650 USD with 12 bids</p>
<p>#4. <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>track.me</strong></span> &#8211;&gt; currently at 2,200 USD with 17 bids</p>
<p>#5. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">home.me</span></strong> &#8211;&gt; currently at 1,930 USD with 10 bids</p>
<p>I am sure this will change tremendously in the last minutes of the auction.</p>
<p>Out of the entire list of 150 domains, currently only 28 domains have not yet received a bid, however the auction will still last another 2 1/2 days.</p>
<p><a title="HEXONET" href="http://www.hexonet.net" target="_blank">HEXONET</a> has had tremendous success with .ME Backorders thus far.  If you find that your desired .ME is taken, then why not place a backorder for the domain through <a title="HEXONET" href="http://www.hexonet.net/" target="_blank">HEXONET</a>?</p>

<p>Vancouver, Canada May 11, 2010 &#8212; HEXONET (<a title="www.hexonet.net" href="http://www.hexonet.net/" target="_blank">www.hexonet.net</a>) announced today the addition of .CC and .TV domains to its growing portfolio of backorderable TLDs (Top-Level-Domains). With over twelve TLDs to backorder from, including rare TLDs like .ASIA and now .CC and .TV, HEXONET offers one of the widest selections of TLDs for those looking to acquire high-value, profitable and soon to expire domain names.</p>
<p>Everyday, excellent domain names expire and become publicly available for registration, some even with existing traffic and returning visitors. Expiring domains for both .CC and .TV are highly desirable. Media and television type domains have long been sought after. And with the restrictive registration policies from the Chinese government surrounding .CN, .CC domains, used as &#8220;Chinese Company&#8221;, are growing in popularity.</p>
<p>According to Jens Wagner, HEXONET&#8217;s Chief Executive Officer, &#8220;right now the opportunities are tremendous for anyone wanting to obtain expiring domains, either for profit or to simply acquire a domain that one has always wanted. Up to now, the problem has been the lack of service availability for domains like .ASIA or .DE. We are changing the game by not only adding hard to implement TLDs, but by also rolling out many more hard to implement TLDs in the coming months. Stay tuned.&#8221;</p>
<p>Individuals, businesses, and organizations can signup for free at HEXONET and immediately start backordering .CC and .TV domains. Backordering for other domain extensions, such as .DE, .INFO, .BIZ, .ORG, .ASIA and more are also available.</p>
<p>About HEXONET<br />

<p>Vancouver, Canada March 3, 2010 &#8212; HEXONET (<a onclick="linkClick( this.href );" href="http://www.hexonet.net/" target="_blank">www.hexonet.net</a>) announced today one of the domain industry&#8217;s first, if not the first, backordering services for DotAsia domain names. Utilizing HEXONET&#8217;s revolutionary domain backordering search engine and service platform, starting today, for the first time, anyone will be able to search for expiring .ASIA domains as well as backorder them even before they expire. Again, only at HEXONET, can .ASIA domain backorders be placed using this new technology.</p>
<p>&#8220;With DotAsia&#8217;s Landrush anniversary fast approaching, HEXONET was determined to launch the DotAsia backordering service as quickly as possible,&#8221; said Robert Birkner, Chief Strategy Officer of HEXONET. Birkner also went on to say, &#8220;On February 20th, thousands of domains, if not tens of thousands, first went into redemption (expiration) resulting from DotAsia&#8217;s massive launch two years ago. Many fantastic domains are going to be up for grabs towards the end of March and only HEXONET customers will have the newest technology to take advantage of the opportunity.&#8221;</p>
<p>Edmon Chung, Chief Executive Officer of the DotAsia registry, has been quoted as saying, &#8220;We are excited to see technological innovations built around DotAsia domains. With the implementation of the Asian Free Trade Area between China and 10 South East Asian nations earlier this year, the usage and demand of DotAsia domains will continue to grow, not only for new domains, but also for domains that have been previously registered as businesses expand to the regional Asian marketplace.&#8221;</p>
<p>Individuals, businesses, and organizations can sign up for free at HEXONET and immediately start backordering .ASIA domains. Backordering for other domain extensions&#8211;such as .DE, .INFO, .BIZ, .ORG, and more&#8211;is also available.</p>
<p><em><strong>About HEXONET</strong></em><br />
Since 1999, HEXONET has been a leading developer and service provider of reseller technologies for the domain industry. Thousands of resellers, startups and service providers from across the world trust HEXONET as their domain platform provider.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For years, in the back of my mind, Jens and I have had the idea of building a better &#8220;domain backordering&#8221; service.  Though we had the concepts in creating a better service and having the specialized engineering experience and skill,  we never got around to actually putting one together.  Often business trips, customer and employee needs, projects, and operational reasons seem to have always impeded us.  After opening the North American wing of HEXONET in 2009 and getting back together with Jens, one resolution was clear from the beginning, build a better &#8220;domain backordering&#8221; service.</p>
<p>Clearly from my perspective:</p>
<ul>
<li>HEXONET has the know-how</li>
<li>HEXONET has the right people with the right skills and expertise who could make it happen</li>
<li>HEXONET showed me in preliminary models, the company was already highly successful in grabbing backorders, some which turned out to be worth a lot</li>
<li>HEXONET further proved to me, the company&#8217;s technology is FASTER AND BETTER than others at grabbing domains, when DE introduced single/two character domains and HEXONET kicked butt in acquiring them</li>
<li>HEXONET offering one of the widest selection of gTLDs and ccTLDs, makes HEXONET the perfect company to be building domain grabbing technology for all TLDs</li>
</ul>
<p>For these reasons, we simply had to build the HEXONET Domain Backordering Service by January 2010. And strangely enough, it became our first new year&#8217;s resolution for 2010!  Yes, committing to a new years resolution in the fall of the previous year is kinda odd, but we were serious about making the domain backordering service our first milestone of the year.  And we actually accomplished our goal (resolution) January 5th, 2010!</p>
<p>On January 5th 2010, HEXONET launched the better &#8220;<a title="Domain Backordering Service" href="http://www.hexonet.net/domain-backordering.php" target="_blank">Domain Backordering Service</a>&#8221; for .COM, NET, ORG, BIZ, INFO, MOBI, US, DE &amp; SE.  Though starting off with just a handful of TLDs now, more ccTLDs are already in the pipeline.  And by the end of 2010, we believe, this service will be the premier ccTLD backordering anywhere.</p>
