Alan informed us last night, that the domain RomneyRyan.com not only ended up being unsold on Flippa, but it has now been blacklisted on Sedo.
We brought the news about the existence of RomneyRyan.com, long before it was listed on any marketplace.
Alan’s attempt to list a “Romney & Ryan” domain on Sedo resulted in a message that a trademark complaint had been received and the domain could not be listed on the Sedo marketplace.
The biggest domain marketplace on earth, has a known policy on domain names of politicians, particularly those of American presidential candidates.
RomneyRyan.com is thus removed from Sedo, but Romney-Ryan.us is still listed. There are more than 300 “Romney” domains, most of them intended to refer to Mitt Romney.
In a recent DomainGang poll, 63% of respondents said they are actively registering political domains.
