About The Names:
These B2B "portal.com" domain names offer comprehensive coverage of industrial and professional business categories, representing hundreds of billions of dollars in annual sales. Examples of the names include: ArmsPortal.com, FarmPortal.com, GasPortal.com, HighTechPortal.com, MetalsPortal.com, PhotonicsPortal.com, RetailPortal.com, and SalesPortal.com.

The term "Portal" has become the definitive term in business for enterprise hubs, e-commerce exchanges and vertical information sites. That, plus the fact that for major companies, a dot-com address is still a "must have," means that these "portal.com" domain names represent the most valuable collection of Web addresses in the B2B marketplace today.

In business and marketing, it's extremely difficult to secure a new brand name or site address that clearly and simply communicates what a business is all about...and that's exactly what these names do. Essentially, these names represent the same kind of value in B2B that "1-800-Flowers" and "1-800-Mattress" do in B2C. For a B2B portal company, enterprise portal company, portal service provider, or B2B media company…these names could literally be worth millions of dollars in marketing value over just the next few years alone.

These names might be used:

• To reinforce a company's leadership position in the portal marketplace

• To enhance the value of, and drive additional traffic to, an existing network of B2B portals...either by replacing existing URL's, or pointing to existing sites

• To start a network of B2B information or exchange sites (as VerticalPortals has done in the consumer space)

The names could be used as:

• Products offered to clients (by a leading portal marketplace builder or enterprise portal builder)

• An investment in the future of the B2B Web
