New Destination leverages content to help build trusted communities

Submitted by .ORG, The Public Interest Registry

eNom, Inc., the world’s largest ICANN accredited domain name wholesaler, today announced the launch of a new portal, org.eNom.com, designed to drive awareness of the multiple uses for the .ORG top-level domain name (TLD). The .ORG marketing portal features articles and videos to help companies and organizations learn how to best use the .ORG TLD to create programs around corporate and social responsibility.

"We believe that .ORG is a powerful and universal brand," said Chris Sheridan, vice president of Business Development for eNom, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Demand Media™. "Through our partnership with The Public Interest Registry (PIR), we have leveraged our content creation platform to develop a destination that can educate people on the benefits of .ORG."

Org.eNom.com was created using professional articles produced through Demand Media Studios and are published in categories that map to the uses of .ORG - Corporate Responsibility, Social Responsibility, Non-profit, Small and Mid-sized Businesses and Building Online Communities. The information includes overviews on these topics as well as instructional information on how to leverage the .ORG TLD to build an online presence.

"The eNom portal is an excellent site for resellers and end-users to learn about .ORG, the globally recognized domain extension for nonprofits as well as individuals and organizations looking to share, build and promote their online communities or causes," said Brian Cute, CEO of .ORG, The Public Interest Registry.

In addition to registering a .ORG domain name, eNom customers have access to the company's simple website building and hosting tools, to get their sites up and running quickly. With the basic site built, customers can also use eNom's unique RichContent solution, a continuously updating pool of over four million pieces of rights-cleared content through a simple, self-serve widget that can be added in minutes using an easy, step-by-step wizard. This tool, like the content on org.enom.com, is powered by Demand Media Studios.

RichContent is a subscription-based service and is available for a free 30-day trial period. Pricing is available monthly or annually.
