What Will It Be?... A Fraction Of A Winning Bid, or 100% Of A Losing Bid?

What will it be? For some bidders at this week's domain auctions, forming a fractional domain ownership group may be the only way to mount a successful bid for a coveted premium domain. But will bidders even consider Fractional Domaining as an option? Will they simply concede defeat and perhaps miss out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a top-notch domain?

Domain prices may not seem so high if you only have to pay a fraction of the bid price (as a member of a fractional ownership group). And although fractional domain owners share an interest in a domain, "x" percent ownership may be preferable to zero percent!

Will Fractional Domaining significantly impact the bidding at this week's auctions? We'll see!

Is Fractional Domaining even a topic of conversation at this year's major domain industry gatherings? It should be!

What do you think?
