.XXX LandRush/Sunrise Auctions Start Today

by

The auctions for Sunrise/Land Rush .XXX domain names started today.

An auction was scheduled if more than 1 application was submitted either during the Sunrise or Land Rush period for the same .XXX domain.

I do not believe ICM, the company that runs the .XXX Registry, has ever released a statement as to how many of domain names are in such auctions.

At Worldwide Media, Inc. we are in 96 of these auctions so we should have a pretty good idea of how they are going.

The auctions are all handled by Pool.com and like the .Co and .Me auctions the closing time will be extended in the event a bid is placed within a day of the closing date.

For now the first auctions end on January 10th 2012

    Good luck to anyone participating in this. Unfortunately I have chosen not to invest in this extension. I’m looking forward to hearing .xxx domain investment stories in the future.
