Abstract
Methods and systems are described that enable a domain name owner (i.e., a 'lessor') to grant a third party (i.e., a 'lessee') a lease to any domain name the lessor owns. More specifically, a lessor may use a domain name service to allow a third party (i.e., a “lessee”) to lease a domain name for use or to purchase the domain name outright. More specifically, the lessor may lease a domain name to a lessee so that any user who accesses the leased domain name is directed to a network resource identified by the lessee. The lessee may also be provided the option to purchase the domain name outright from the lessor, rather than lease it. In addition, a valuation of the domain name may be generated.
