Point2 Realty Solutions Announces Integration of Go Daddy Domain Name API

Saskatoon, SK, CA, November 15, 2004 - Point2 Realty Solutions, one of the most successful providers of real estate-specific software in the industry, has further integrated its package, and is now able to sell domain names directly to its 40,000+ members for as little as $8.95 USD per year.

Through an API (Application Programming Interface) arrangement with Wild West Domains, an ICANN-accredited registrar and the reseller division of the The Go Daddy Group, Inc., Point2 has given even further appeal to the already impressive suite of features it offers. Removing the need for its members to shop for domain names at third party sites, and at the same time offering prices in line with the most reasonable on the web, Point2 looks more attractive than ever.

“This is just one more way for us to offer our members a product that is both extremely powerful as well as being very easy to implement,” says Brendan King, C.O.O. of Point2 Realty Solutions. “It’s always been our philosophy that our members shouldn’t be forced to choose between a high level of functionality and ease of use. We’ve constantly strived to offer both, simultaneously and affordably, so Wild West, with its highly competitive pricing structure, and seamless integration into our own product, was a good match.”

Members can now shop for a variety of domain names through Point2’s new Domain Store interface direct from the Point2 website, enabling them to automatically point a domain name to an existing site, and to integrate multiple domains. Says King, “the bottom line is that this is a great product at a great price, and we’re excited to be able to offer it to our members.”
