Domain Name Wire Acquires DNW.com
Monday, November 3rd, 2008
Domain name will forward to DomainNameWire.com.
Domain Name Wire has acquired the three letter domain name DNW.com.
By acquiring the short, easy-to-remember domain name and acronym for the site, Domain Name Wire will now be even easier to access by web users: they can just type-in DNW.com rather than the longer DomainNameWire.com.
“I’m excited about the acquisition of this premium domain name,” said Domain Name Wire editor Andrew Allemann. “Domain Name Wire readers are savvy about domain names, and acquiring this three letter domain name reinforces the fact that we understand the value of good domain names.” Domain Name Wire is often referred to as “DNW” by the domain industry.
Readers do not need to change any bookmarks or RSS feeds, as the main site will still be hosted at www.DomainNameWire.com.
Domain Name Wire, founded in 2005, attracts hundreds of thousands of page views each month from various segments of the domain name industry: domain registrars, domain lawyers, domain name investors, corporate domain name managers, domain registries, and policy organizations.
“Domain Name Wire has always been committed to bringing relevant and accurate information to the domain name community,” continued Allemann. “Our readership has grown over the past several years, and acquiring this domain name shows our commitment to our readers.”

This is great use of a super domain name. Glad to see the “building” and the “lot” come together so nicely.
Congrats Andrew, it was really hard letting it go… although I can’t think of a better use for it. Good luck!
Made sense to get dnw.com after DomainNameNews got dnn.com.
Doh!
