Domain name investor, Omar Haddedou, has formally launched the geodomain travel site ParisFrance.com. The website provides hotel booking & apartment rental functions as well as providing a wealth of information on local tours, restaurants, and attractions.
Readers can learn about the history of the city and access information regarding many of Paris’ famous landmarks and monuments.
ParisFrance.com is available in both the French and English language. Quite nice. And a hotel search engine located on the front page produced 799 hotels in Paris with vacancies for 
immediate booking. A “Travel Resources” link at the bottom of the homepage yielded more sites for those who really want to explore getting around in Paris via the metro or other means.
A general Google search of ‘Paris France’ finds Omar’s newly launched ParisFrance.com on the second results 
page already. Won’t be long before ParisFrance.com is dominating the first page. Of course, with a premium geodomain, search ranking is often a secondary consideration because of the quality direct navigation traffic such a domain will pull on its own merit.
For geodomain investors, you may be interested to know that Omar Haddedou is the owner of other fine quality location domains such as SanDiego.biz, Tulsa.US, and PebbleBeach.US.
With the launch of ParisFrance.com, the site will now be promoted on the official mobile internet version at ParisFrance.mobi.

Spain.info is a gorgeous example of what a geo domain name can become. Using the web’s official information address, .info, Spain’s Institute of Tourism developed Spain.info into a multimedia dream come true.
The site is rich with colorful video, panoramic photos, interactive maps, deep content for avid readers, and all of the functionality needed to plan a memorable, once-in-a-lifetime trip.
It would appear that Spain.info draws considerable visitor traffic. The site enjoys a near top position in Google, Yahoo, and MSN search engines. A Google page rank of “7″ and 76,537 incoming Yahoo links are more than enough evidence to conclude Spain.info is providing travelers with what they need. More stats indicate that the website drew between 40,000 and 100,000 site visitors per month over the course of 2008. Impressive.
Spain.info’s designers have adapted the site for four major languages: Spanish, English, German, and French. Some of the interactive multimedia functions, which really shine, require the installation of Quicktime (if not already resident on your computer). The install is free and effortless if you’re interested.

In an eye-catching press release today, Travelzoo announced that they have purchased the premium domain name, Fly.com, for $1,800,000.
Travelzoo stated in the release that they intend to use Fly.com as a new information website.
Company Senior VP, Brian Clark, said the domain will act as a compliment to the Travelzoo brand offering travelers and advertisers with innovative approaches to finding the best values in travel.
While flights in the U.S. have been plagued by faltering sales and frustrating delays, travel is still a popular escape from the pressures of life. Safe to say that the travel industry will re-emerge as the USA (and the world) eventually crawl out of the current economic slowdown.
Considering that most all markets are presently depressed with fire sales being the norm, acquiring Fly.com makes good sense for a company looking forward … and not behind. As I 
always say, “Once a domain is gone, it’s gone.” Which is great news when you’re the new owner of a premium web address like Fly.com.
