Budget2020.uk (and others)

Richard K · Mar 8, 2020

Budget2020.uk is under auction at DomainLore (visit https://domainlore.uk/auctions/gems_id/25626).

On completion of the auction, the winner will have the option to double his/her winning bid so as also to acquire these further 5 domains:

Budget2020.org
2020Budget.co.uk
2020Budget.uk
2020Budget.org
UKBudget2020.com

Together with Budget2020.uk, that's 6 domains for the price of 2

The most obvious end users for these domains are tax advisers and accountants looking to increase their own website traffic.

Deloitte (one of the "Big Four" accountancy firms) are already doing this with UKBudget.com. Other accountancy firms do it too – i.e. buy Budget-related domain names and point them at their own websites, so that type-in traffic from people looking for Budget information goes straight through to the firm's own online Budget summary.

With just days left to the longest-awaited Budget in a generation in unprecedented political circumstances, there's never been a better time!

Just to be absolutely clear: This auction relates specifically to Budget2020.uk. If you place a bid, that is the only domain you will be committing yourself to purchase.

However, if you win the auction, you will be offered the opportunity (with no obligation) also to purchase the 5 other domains listed above (Budget2020.org, 2020Budget.co.uk, 2020Budget.uk, 2020Budget.org and UKBudget2020.com).

This amounts to 6 domains in total, which can be yours for twice the amount of your winning bid for Budget2020.uk. In other words, 6 domains for the price of 2.

Auction ends lunchtime today (Monday).

One hour left! – https://domainlore.uk/auctions/gems_id/25626

And while I'm on the subject of timing...

Because the Budget is this week, whoever wins this auction will want the domain (or domains) very soon. I shall make a point therefore of transferring them as soon as humanly possible after I receive payment (and in any event by the end of the day).

This will be done by means of a GoDaddy “push” transfer. (The usual Nominet transfer system using IPS tags wouldn’t work in this case, as the domains include a .com and a .org.)
