Domain names online marketplace set for launch

DUBAI, October 26, 2014

Asamies.com, the Mena region’s first of its kind online marketplace and which aims to provide SMEs and entrepreneurs in the region a wide variety of catchy business names to pick from, is officially launching next week in Dubai, UAE.

Each name is packaged uniquely which includes a catchy domain and a quality logo. For those unclear what project to start, asamies.com is the optimum source to find their dream idea too, a statement said.

The website provides premium domain names in English and Arabic with strong visuals that speak their potential. It provides several ways for visitors to browse, select and buy, with the site’s mission to remove the frustration of business enthusiasts wishing to start a project but struggle to find a quality name with the most popular extension “.COM”.

In addition, the start-up realizes the low representation of Arabic web content in a region where it is the native language. The start-up is on quest to play a part in raising the Arabic content on the internet by offering [dot]Shabaka extension which is the first borderless Arabic gTLD in the world.

“We are based in a region where Arabic is the native language. It couldn’t make more sense to offer and promote [dot]Shabaka alongside ‘.COM’. Etisalat is among the early adopters of this Arabic extension and we pride ourselves in playing a role to encourage people and businesses to use this extension with the aim to increase Arabic content on the web”, said Ahmad Abdelraziq, Co-founder and managing director at asamies.com.

Each domain name comes with a well-crafted logo and various suggested applications. “The power of visuals can’t be underestimated; we are not only designing to give a ‘wow’ touch but we are telling the future story for each name,” said Aamir Shaikh, co-founder and design director at asamies.com.

Customers’ convenience is at the core of the start-up. Not only various ways of payment are offered on the website, but also an instalment plan is offered for those who wish to pay off their due amounts over an agreed period.

This added advantage is offered free as the founders of asamies.com acknowledges the flexibility that people and businesses need when kicking off a project, the statement said.

“The growing number of start-ups in the Mena region is obvious especially in the digital sector. We don’t want to line up and join the ride but we want to make a remarkable contribution. We’ve realized a market gap and an un-tapped area, then moved in swiftly and modelled an innovative business solution,” Abdelraziq added. – TradeArabia News Service
