Anthos Chrysanthou Discusses Translate.com
Elliot Silver (https://domaininvesting.com)

Anthos Chrysanthou is a successful domain investor whose company, Emerge Media, owns a number of excellent domain names. This morning on The Next Web, there was an article posted about Translate.com, a domain name Emerge Media acquired about a year ago and is now operating as a language translation website.
The article covers the release of the website’s iOS and Android apps, but I thought the most interesting aspect was that since the acquisition a year ago, “Emerge Media has since grown the site five fold to over 2 million users.” That’s a solid growth rate.
I didn’t see any reports about the sale of the Translate.com domain name, so this is most likely one of those undisclosed domain sales that is frequently cited. It appears that Emerge Media acquired the domain name in November of 2012 from a company called ENLASO Corporation.
Although there are a number of excellent translation websites and apps out there, my opinion is that the exact match .com domain name is authoritative and has helped with the website’s traffic. This descriptive domain name has become a brand, and it’s a testament to Chrysanthou’s efforts.

Fast Growing Registrar SAV.com Reaches 1 Million Domains Under Management Just 2 Years After Launch
October 12, 2021
Only 43 of the nearly 3,000 domain registrars in business worldwide have passed the 1 million mark in domains under management. Today Anthos Chrysanthou, the Founder & CEO of registrar and domain marketplace SAV.com, announced that his company has just done it and it took them only two years since they launched to do it – a time frame few have been able to match.
Chrysanthou attributed Sav.com’s exponential growth to offering features and benefits that have resonated with entrepreneurs, small businesses, and domain investors. He noted, “From the beginning Sav.com’s mission was to remove as much friction as possible related to the buying and selling of domain names. For entrepreneurs and small businesses, that meant providing them with a marketplace containing a wide selection of quality domain names capable of helping them quickly launch or expand their online presence. We also knew that competing with established domain marketplaces for quality inventory would not be easy, so broke away from traditional 20% marketplace commission pricing practices by charging domain sellers only a 4% commission, with no hidden fees. This innovative pricing model, combined with a “For Sale” landing page that is highly optimized for conversions, quickly attracted more and more sellers of quality domain name inventory to the Sav.com marketplace and registrar.”
Anthos added, “It didn’t take long for the snowball effect to kick in. New inventory of quality domain names attracted more retail buyers, which then attracted more domain sellers, which then attracted more retail buyers, and so on. Exponential growth and 1 million domains under management was the result, with no signs of slowing.”
To further support growth, Sav.com also removed cost-related friction for entrepreneurs, SMBs and domain investors by offering extremely low domain registration and renewal rates. This is something I can personally attest to. For simplicity’s sake, I like to keep my domains spread across as few registrars as possible and have for years now have been using no more than 2 or 3 well established companies. However, after watching SAV’s growth I finally decided to add one more and opened an account there in July. Less than 3 months later I’ve already registered over 100 domains at SAV and have found their clean, simple interface for managing domains to be very easy to use. On the few occasions I’ve needed to contact customer service, my experience in that area has also been good. I haven’t tried the company’s other services yet but do know they offer free WhoIs privacy, free SSL certificates and have also eliminated domain backorder placement and fulfillment fees. When you take all of that into consideration it is no wonder SAV has become a very popular choice.
Who is Sav.com ? #NameKing emerges as new dropcatching and sales platform
February 3, 2020, at 2:44 pm
A little over a decade ago, NameKing was the king of “domain tasting,” a practice that was made obsolete by ICANN’s change in domain registration policies. NameKing was once owned by Oversee, and that didn’t end well.
The domain NameKing.com and its ICANN-accredited business were acquired in late 2018 by domain investor and entrepreneur, Anthos Chrysanthou.
Just like Undeveloped changed to DAN.com, NameKing moved on with its own domain rebranding, apparently, onto the short three letter domain, Sav.com.
The transition occurred early last year, but nobody seemed to notice, perhaps because NameKing was just another ICANN registrar at the time.
The move to Sav.com changes the game, however, as Sav.com is now emerging as a discount (aka “cheap”) domain registrar and a dropcatching service provider, both for managing the portfolio of its founder, Emerge Media, Inc., and those of customers.

Sav.com 和 NameKing.com
河小马
sav.com是这几年新冒出来的域名注册商，以便宜的com注册价格以及backorder价格而出名
sav 不像namebright那样在域名界久负盛名，在2018，2019年直接就蹦出来的，不免令人疑惑
后来看到在sav注册的域名的信息，才发现写的是NameKing.com, 这就有点意思了
玩停放的人应该会对nameking.com 都不陌生
NameKing.com 最早是被Oversee.net 的一个部门，后来不知道发生了什么就被DomainSponsor所拥有，用的resellerclub 的平台技术来管理DomainSponsor所有的自有域名
在后来DomainSponsor被Rook Media收购以后， NameKing.com 的whois 信息上就写上了Rook Media 的信息(可惜的是不久以后Rook Media 自己就死了)
现在NameKing.com这个域名又直接跳转到sav.com, 据从GG上的来的消息，是被Anthos Chrysanthou 收购了。。。
从一些数据平台可以看到，从sav.com 注册的域名数量急剧上升.
确实， sav.com 的价格实在太能打了，比namebright还能打
sav.com 注册com只要$6.95, 转移和backorder只要$7.95, 续费的话只要$8.38, 算上payment gateway的费用，基本不挣钱。
buying：因为Domainsponsor也被Oversee收购过啊
ghol：这个注册商是海外最老牌的牛逼的域名投资者之一，前些天跟几个注册商朋友还聊到他了的。

Sav.com 购买了五十个新注册商
凯文墨菲，2021 年 5 月 24 日，08:30:12 (UTC)， 域名注册商
谁说域名抢注空间的竞争正在消亡？
在过去一年左右的时间里，域名注册商 Sav.com 已经成为域名投资者的最爱，它刚刚组建了 50 家获得 ICANN 认证的新注册商，以支持其引人注目的服务。
ICANN 记录显示，最近几天创建了名为“Sav.com, LLC – 1”到“Sav.com, LLC – 50”的新认证注册商，每个注册商都具有相同的联系信息。
毫无疑问，他们会增加 Sav 的注册 EPP 连接池，从而增加公司成功保护删除域的机会。
事实证明，该公司最近在域名投资者中很受欢迎，因为它提供无赢不收费的延期交货服务以及将注册批发折扣传递给客户的习惯，从而导致第一年的定价非常低。
自 2019 年底推出以来，它一直在使用当年从 NameKing.com 购买的原始认证来获取名称。在此期间，它从管理的大约 4,000 个名字增加到超过 400,000 个。
五十个新注册商意味着每年至少有 200,000 美元的额外资金进入 ICANN 的口袋，用于支付认证费用。ICANN 当前财政年度的预算预计其注册服务机构数量将减少 380 个。
这个新的 dropnet 的出现是在ICANN 罐头前 dropcatcher Pheenix几天之后出现的，它曾经在其网络中拥有 500 多个注册商。
