NameMedia Pulls Listings from Sedo

Firm removes listings from Sedo but it may be only temporary.

Notice anything missing from Sedo lately?

NameMedia, which operates BuyDomains and Afternic, has yanked all of its domains from Sedo. The firm previously listed its owned and operated domain names on Sedo’s marketplace.

Sedo changed its commission rate and terms and conditions a few months ago, although Sedo states this wasn’t the reason for the removal.

Sedo Marketing Team Manager Heather DelCarpini informs me:

“While NameMedia did temporarily remove their names from our marketplace, this had nothing to do with the change to our terms and conditions. Their contract with us expired, and at that time the names were removed.”

NameMedia owns regarding one million domain names.
