Escrow.com to power the auction of the domain Batteries.com

SAN FRANCISCO, December 15th, 2021: The world’s most valuable domain for selling batteries around the globe, Batteries.com, will be sold to the highest bidder through a private auction process. Auction details can be found at WelcomeToBatteries.com. Official Escrow service providers for the auction process include San Francisco-based Escrow.com.

The winner of the highest bidder will be informed of their status as the domain’s new owner on December 25th, 2021. The deadline for written bids to be received via Federal Express will be Tuesday, December 21st. 

According to Global Battery Market Report 2020-2027 issued by ResearchAndMarket.com, the global battery market is expected to grow at a compounded annual growth rate of 14.1% from 2020 to 2027 to reach US$ 310.87 billion by 2027.  

“Batteries.com is indeed a rarity,” said Karine Kugler, CEO of The Three Marketers, upon learning that one of the most sought-after Internet domains will be sold before the end of this year. “With the emerging competition and explosive growth in batteries, this domain’s inherent value proposition for a buyer is clear: an Internet address as distinct and easily located as the Louvre in Paris,” added Kugler, whose marketing skills attract clients worldwide.

The market for domain names is stronger than ever, according to the Escrow.com Domain Investment Index, for Q1 2021. As the US macroeconomic outlook improves, the domain name aftermarket is improving, surpassing pre-pandemic levels.

“Escrow.com has been facilitating the world’s largest domain transactions since the company started. In 2021 alone – Escrow did 50% of transaction volume in domain, with a significant portion of those domains being  “exact-match” domains such as Protein.com, Telehealth.com, and SecuritySystems.com,” said Escrow.com General Manager Jackson Elsegood.

Premium exact match keyword domains – like batteries.com are what domain brokers classify as a “category killer”. A domain that represents an entire vertical. Making it a prime piece of digital real estate and an investment that pays for itself.

“Owning a premium keyword domain like batteries.com – puts you in front of your competition for online search, provides instant credibility, and positions your brand as a global leader in the category. Companies that have invested in the most expensive “exact match” keyword domains have been able to dominate search rankings, save large amounts on advertising costs, and generate up to billions in revenue from owning the keyword. Making it difficult for competitors in the space to compete organically on search,” added Elsegood.

Escrow.com recently celebrated safely processing US$5 billion in transactions over 22 years of continued licensed escrow service. November 2021 was its first US$1m revenue and US$100m GPV month.

WelcomeTOBatteries.com includes the following:
