DomainSponsor Europe Achieves Fifth Consecutive Quarter of Growth
-- DOMAINfest Europe Conference Slated For June 2011 in Barcelona --
LOS ANGELES and FRANKFURT, March 25, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- DomainSponsor®, the traffic monetization unit of Oversee.net®, reported that DomainSponsor Europe has continued its rapid growth, achieving its fifth consecutive quarter of growth. The latest results show Quarter 1, 2011 revenue increasing by double-digits over Quarter 4, 2010.
The company credits the consistent, rapid growth to its ongoing investment in new optimization technology, which has yielded stronger financial performance for clients and better direct navigation results for end-users. DomainSponsor reported it also has added sales and support staff in its European headquarters office in Frankfurt, Germany.
"We established a European office in December 2009 to get closer to our customers and learn more about local market nuances," said DomainSponsor General Manager Peter Celeste. "Building trusted relationships with European publishers means we've been able to make smart, targeted decisions on how to invest further in our optimization technology. As a result, European publishers have been moving to join DomainSponsor."
European publisher Nico Zeifang says the move to DomainSponsor has been worth it. "DomainSponsor has invested time, money and resources into this market and is outperforming for the greater part of our European traffic. Investing in technology has paid off."
