Service sends traffic to best parking company based on visitor’s location.

It’s no secret that certain domain parking companies perform better with traffic from different countries. Some do better with U.S. traffic while others do better in Germany, India, etc. But splitting domain traffic amongst domain parking companies has always been a challenge. Most people end up sending all traffic for each domain to one parking company.

That’s where Comwired, a new DNS service, comes in. With Comwired you can send your domain traffic to different domain parking companies based on the location of the visitor.

Setting domains up with the service is simple. You point your domain to Comwired’s name servers, then select which locations send traffic to each parking company. In the example below I want to send Mexican traffic to NameDrive, U.S. traffic to Parked.com, and everything else to Sedo:

Of course, you also need to add your domain to each parking service that you use. If you later decide to test certain traffic with another parking company you just log in to the service and change the selection.

Comwired offers additional DNS features such as load balancing. During open beta, the domain service is free (for now).

6 companies to bid in Friday’s Toys.com auction.

In a review of qualified bid documents, Domain Name Wire has discovered some familiar faces in Friday’s auction of Toys.com: Frank Schilling, National A-1 Advertising, and Toys ‘R’ Us to name a few. It’s clear that the press coverage of the original auction brought more bidders out of the woodwork.

Most of the bidders submitted an initial bid of $1.35M, as I predicted. But it’s clear the auction will go much higher than that. Bidders include:

1-800-Diapers
Toys ‘R’ Us via Eagle, LLC
National A-1
Schilling Aviation Corp (Frank Schilling)
Socha APA David William Socha
Faculty Lounge Partners

Faculty Lounge Partners won the initial auction and will be the “stalking horse” bidder in this auction.

It’s interesting to see Frank Schilling bid through a company other than Name Administration Corp. Perhaps its the size of this deal that requires a separate corporate entity.

Also, some bidders made massive deposits or escrow payments, despite only a 10% deposit required. National A-1 Advertising plunked down $1.5M, Socha deposited $0.5M.

I’ll do my best to provide a final auction result as soon as its available.
