A Clean Start for 2011 :: Sedo’s November Newsletter

November 11th, 2010 · No Comments

Dear,

Is it November already? Time flies when you’re closing over $20 million in sales! Sedo had a great third quarter, and our Q3 Domain Market Study shows that investor sales were strong. Speaking of sales, this month’s newsletter is jam-packed with information and end-of-year tips and tricks to close out 2010. Our feature covers the best ways to sell more of your domains, and our Sedo Speaks section helps you prepare  for next year with guest writer and tax expert, Sandra K. Brooks. Even our legal brief looks at possible changes in tax laws that might affect you and your portfolio in 2011.
But taxes aren’t the only thing to which we can look forward. The SedoPro World Tour arrives November 23 in London for our last stop of the year. Sedo’s combined GreatDomains auction happens after Thanksgiving on December 2, 2010, so you don’t miss out on bidding because of the holidays. Also, our next webinar arrives in mid-December – scroll down for details. Along the way, take a look at our articles and scheduled events, and stay in the know.
Happy Reading!
Best regards,

Tim Schumacher
CEO, Sedo.com

LEGAL BRIEF

Domains & Taxes

Legal BriefBy Ben Kradin, Sedo.com Legal Staff
This time of year has come to signify a time for decision-making – a time to candidly appraise personal and financial standing, and to scrutinize business assets, liabilities and portfolios including domain names! It is a time to seek out assets essential to business and resolve to depart with those that are dispensable. This is even more a crucial issue in this critical tax year because the IRS has decided to move forward without several of the 2010 tax breaks.
