Announcing EnCirca's ProForwarding Service
Dear Bret,

I am proud to introduce EnCirca's ProForwarding Service. EnCirca knocks down the barriers to obtaining .pro domain names.

Available exclusively from EnCirca. Now anyone can register a second-level .pro domain name, like business.pro. No proof of credentials are required. Now is your chance to get the top keywords for your firm and industry.

Register in March and receive an introductory price of just $49.

That's no typo. EnCirca has developed a special service that provides second-level .pro domains at a 90% discount. And virtually every name is still available!

"The issues with .pro, until now, were that the cost was often prohibitive and the requirement to validate the registration with credentials of being a licensed professional was restraining," said Tom Barrett, president of EnCirca. "The pace of supporting new professions and countries has been too slow to satisfy demand. Now, EnCirca is resolving the cost and registration obstacles, enabling all licensed professions -- no matter where they reside -- to quickly and easily acquire a memorable .pro identity and effectively compete online."

Small Businesses and Professionals

The best way to promote yourself in Google and the other search engines is with a domain name that matches a search engine keyword for your business or industry.

.pro offers the only opportunity for small businesses and self-employed professionals to obtain a short domain name relevant to their industry.

EnCirca's exclusive ProForwarding service eliminates the license requirements for .pro domains and ends the waiting for those professions not yet supported by RegistryPro.

Compared to .com, there are virtually no registrations for second level .pro domain names. This means, if you act fast, you can snap up some short keywords for your business.


Our Price: $49
Domain Name Investors

Do you ever day-dream about going back in time, say five years, and building the perfect domain name portfolio from scratch? Imagine what it would be worth now?

The fact is that common dictionary words are no longer available in the most popular TLD's: com, net, org, info, biz or us. Even simple combinations, such as "idaholawyer.com" are no longer available.

But they are still available in .pro.

Some might even argue: "Why pay $49 or even $99 for a .pro when you can get a .com domain for as low as $5?"

Well, check out this list of recent domain name sales in .com, info or biz
(Source: www.dnjournal.com).

ALL of these are still available in the .pro domain as of March 1, 2005 for just $49.

  • Trademark Owners & Lawyers

    Previously, if you wanted to protect your trademark in second-level .pro domains, it would have cost you $900/year with a four year up-front commitment.

    Now, with EnCirca's exclusive ProForwarding service, you can get the same protection for just a $49 cost for the first year. Renewals are just $99.



    We call it March Madness. Because you'll go mad if you don't take advantage of this special pricing to secure search engine keywords for your business.

    Feel free to check with other ICANN registrars. This service is available exclusively from EnCirca and is not available from any other registrar at any other price.

    This introductory pricing will absolutely end on March 31.
