Afternic yesterday announced that NameJet will join the Afternic reseller network as a Premium Partner. NameJet, a domain name aftermarket auction company co-owned by eNom and Web.com, will now offer Afternic’s portfolio of high quality premium domains with “Buy it Now” prices to its rapidly-growing customer base. Eligible Afternic domains will be transferred via its leading Fast Transfer technology to NameJet customers, giving them immediate control of the domain and providing an optimal user experience.

“We are thrilled to be expanding our relationship with NameJet beyond our work in the gTLD space and to welcome them into the Afternic network as a reseller of premium domains,” said Jason Miner, Chief Operating Officer for Afternic. “Our goal is to continue to increase our value to Afternic members by creating more liquidity in the aftermarket. The addition of NameJet to our reseller network increases our reach to new audiences and gives our sellers unprecedented exposure to buyers worldwide.”

Matt Overman, NameJet’s General Manager said of the partnership, “Afternic’s high-quality domain portfolio and incredible Fast Transfer capabilities was a key reason we selected them as a partner. We are committed to providing our expanding customer base with more choices and the best user experience for acquiring premium domains, and Afternic was a natural choice.”

Afternic’s inventory is already being displayed in search results on NameJet.
