Social-Voting News Website Launches For The Domain Name Industry. 100% User-Submitted Content With Revenue-Sharing For Members.

Penang Island, Malaysia (PRWEB) June 26, 2007 -- Recently launched DNHour.com is the domain name industry's first revenue-sharing and community-driven niche website. Modeled after the popular social-content site, Digg.com, DNHour.com is designed for members to submit short reviews of the latest industry news with a link to the source. Using an algorithm to determine the popularity of the news, members can choose to help promote or demote contents submitted by fellow members through a voting process. With enough votes, popular news stories are promoted to the main page of the website, exposing it to a broader audience.

According to site founder Koay Al Vin, the portal is for domainers to consolidate all important industry news, compiled and ranked by the community in one central location. Instead of sifting through journals or domain forums, members can now sort for popular news in categories such as Recent Sales & Prices or Domains On Auction. Still in Beta mode, the site is aimed at domainers-on-the-go, where social-reporting will help alert them of any domains available at a steal or the next big domain on auction. Members can also network among peers by contacting fellow members within the community and comment on posts.

The talk of the today is social-everything. In this generation of Web 2.0, we are talking about blogging, wikis and crowd clout where like-minded groups connect online and exert influence in an industry
"The talk of the today is social-everything. In this generation of Web 2.0, we are talking about blogging, wikis and crowd clout where like-minded groups connect online and exert influence in an industry," says Koay. "DNHour.com is crowd clout for the domain name industry," he adds. "Now domainers are discovering that they can choose which news or services are popular and demote those that are not."

About DNHour.com

DNHour.com is founded by a Malaysian-based domainer and serial entrepreneur, Koay Al Vin. After missing out on some big domain name purchases, he decided to keep in the know by tediously scouring domain forums and listing sites for what is available. He founded DNHour.com to ease the process and today, all domainers can help each other by sharing those important news and events at DNHour.com.
