EVO Landing Launches Domain Management Platform With Funding From Monster

Seattle's EVO Landing has launched its platform which claims to give domain speculators the ability to buy domains then create dynamic associated websites that come with media-rich and relevant content based on the value of the domain. We think of firms like Demand Media that have bought-up sweet domains, then thrown content onto those domains so that visitors think they are actually hitting a real site. EVO Platform wants to give any domain speculator the chance to be like Demand Media.

The Company received initial funding from Seattle angel investors in November 2007 and then closed its Series A round in December 2007 from Rob Monster's Monster Venture Partners. Monster is a partner at domain giant the Internet Real Estate Group. The startup is led by CEO
Geoffrey Nuval who was an analyst at Lehman Brothers VC.

EVO says that within its two and-a-half months in beta, it has grown its network to over 10K sites and it is accepting less than 15% of submitted names onto the system.
